Well the atheists also follow a similar trend albeit in reverse. The trend of believing just one less!!

Well, the Mormons really are crazy, and the sane ones are insincere hucksters.

But didn't the bible prophesied that Joseph Smith would be born in a manger?

I've never met a halfway sane Mormon, what's it like?

It's hard to believe a religion that split into different groups within the lifetime of its founders.

Most of the witnesses to the Book of Mormon were excommunicated.

Other Mormons were also seers. That's were Baneemy comes in that I mention here frequently. Baneemy is sort of a lesser god-oidal entity of some kind. He reincarnated (it's unclear if pods were involved) as Charles Thompson for a while.

LDS has schismed well over 100 times since ~1820. Many of the schisms have schismed too. I know someone in the Remnant Church. I think they are a third or forth tier wholly disowned franchise.

The reason for Allah creating the Quran is because Judeo-Christian scripture become 'corrupted'. I.e. It no longer agrees with the Quran because Allah refused to protect it. Allah is such a fickle deity. Is the Quran protected? Who knows? Then Joseph Smith comes along and does something similar. Hm, I wonder if he was inspired by Muhammad...
