Don't believe everything you read.

Here it is:

If a man with a questionable background can create a religion and gain followers, what does that essentially state about other religions?  

It means they're all man made, fake.

I know the real Joseph Smith.

Don't believe everything Joe Smith wrote.

IANMTU.

If you profess belief in the version of Joseph Smith's first visitation PENNED in his OWN hand you WILL be excommunicated because the official LDS required for membership version is DIFFERENT.

IANMTU.

The problem was, the Joe Smith personally written up version was mislaid and was not discovered until the 1960's in the church archives. And obviously, the LDS hierarchy couldn't change their requirements by then. And it is DIFFERENT.

IANMTU.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

No, silly.  "The book of A Mormon"   It is a true non-fiction.  Not like that fantasy "The book of Mormon".

Sorry I missed the "a". No I haven't read that one.

And it gets WORSE, there are more versions than just those 2.  Joe told so many lies it was impossible for him to keep track of all of them. And remember, you have to profess belief in the CORRECT version to be a member. And the correct version is NOT the one hand written by Joseph Smith HIMSELF.

It is not that different. There are more than two and Joseph Smith did not use the same wording every time he gave an account of the first vision. The white salamander letter is a proven fake.

The version of the first visitation found in the archives in the 1960s is in Joseph's hand writing and it is DIFFERENT than the church required for membership version.

You are fucked.
