Top 25: The Best Books I Discovered In 2014
#10
RE: Top 25: The Best Books I Discovered In 2014
Probably not for everyone, but I am wading through The Changing World of Mormonism, and it is pretty much like the literary equivalent of an extremely gory car accident.

I already know more than enough to reduce the next pair of missionaries I encounter to a glowing fog of atoms, but I keep going back and reading another chapter.

I realize the rest of you are already sure in your disbelief of everything emitted from the corrupt mind of Joe Smith, but mark me down as 100% thunderstruck at just how BAD Old Joe was at Religion 101, and yet he still managed to amass millions of followers, each and every one obsessively and compulsively credulous or just as conniving as Joe himself. Additionally, it is stunning just how voluminous the pile of crap he managed to gestate, and staggeringly, most of it, despite his representations that it was all 100% direct from God Almighty, Joe still had the osmium balls to go back and REVISE it all, and quite a bit of it, many times.

Anyhow, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints ain't a religion. I don't know what the fuck it is, but it sure as hell isn't a religion.


No shit, Xemu does it better than Joe.
