Mormon Prophet

[Rev. Rye]

I recently re-listened to Last Podcast On the Left's series on Mormonism, and Marcus ended it with these words: "If you're someone who's listened to this entire series [read: the series on Mormonism, covering six episodes, 12 hours and 50 minutes, and the history of the mainstream church up till the death of Brigham Young (plus some detours into their more notable revelations) and the even nuttier offshoots] with guilt because you have questions about your faith and particularly, the history behind your faith, we want you to know that there's absolutely no reason for that guilt. If you want to leave, then leave, and if your family doesn't accept it or accept you for whatever reason, remember, as we always say, friends are the family you choose, and remember that there people out there willing to help you overcome your fears. Because at the end of the day, just remember that the reason why you're feeling that fear and guilt is because a grave-robbing magician decided 200 years ago that he didn't feel like working his family's rock farm. And the scam he used to escape took on a life of its own, thus birthing the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints."
