Journal of Discourses 13:125; “Jesus made his appearance on the earth in the meridian of time, and he established his kingdom on the earth. But to fulfill ancientprophecies the Lord suffered that kingdom to be uprooted; in other words, the kingdoms of this world made war against the kingdom of God, established eighteen centuries ago, […]
From the seventeenth to twenty-first century, theories about the ‘Lost Ten Tribes’ are in no short supply. It seems everyone has had an opinion about it. One of the hot topics in the early nineteenth century was the speculation of what happened to the so-called ‘Lost Ten Tribes of Israel’. Opinions they had assimilated into […]
Oh the tangled web they weave… As time has waned on for the Church, they’ve made a strict practice of not giving heed to many of their past proclamations. In Mormonism, there are no hard and fast rules, and our example today is a classic display of how they operate. Joseph Smith emphatically preached that […]
I came upon a tangled web of lies produced by the Church that I had no idea existed. So today we’re taking a look at events that took place at the transfiguration and comparing the Bible with what the LDS Church has to say about it. I’m certain this won’t be the last discovery on […]
In December 2013 the Church published an essay defending their history of polygamy and why they practiced it. In response to their outlandish claims we’ve been addressing their rewrite of history, but this time around we’re doing things a bit differently. Woo-hoo! I’m pulling out some of their major lies and will address them here, so here […]
Continuing along in our mini-series of noteworthy categories from our collection of Mormon quotes, I thought this subject matter was worthy of mention! As I mentioned before when we’re posting these things day after day it doesn’t dawn on us just how many outrageous teachings they’ve uttered. What sticks out the most to me personally […]

God’s loving parentage and guidance can help each willing, obedient child of God receive of His fulness and of His glory…The teaching that men and women have […]
D&C 89:1-2, 5-6, 8-9, 12-13,18-21; “1 A Word of Wisdom, for the benefit of the council of high priests, assembled in Kirtland, and the church, and also the saints in Zion— 2 To be sent greeting; not by commandment or constraint 5 That inasmuch as any man drinketh wine or strong drink among you, behold […]
With bated breath (eye roll) we waited for the Salt Lake Tribune’s article to make its appearance giving us a synopsis of the talks presented at the semi-annual 183rd General Conference of the LDS Church. So now that I have it in black and white I’m breaking this down to see for myself if the words of these […]
The history of Mormonism in America is a complicated one. Uninvited visits from young men on bicycles wearing white shirts and ties aren’t what citizens of the mid-nineteenth century experienced. On the heels of the American Revolution came a young man with big plans and a big imagination to match. His ideas of a new […]
