Recently TSCC gloated that they were consulted on preparing a "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" category for the broadcast version of the gameshow Jeopardy.

http://www.deseretnews.com/article/765640134/The-LDS-Church-appears-as-a-category-on-Jeopardy.html

So...It struck me it would be nice to make an on-line version of not just a category, but a whole Jeopardy game devoted to exposing the fraud of Mormonism in an entertaining way.

I'd like to put up on-line a Jeopardy-like game with categories like these:

Category: The First Vision

Answer: The number of versions of the First Vision told by Joseph Smith Question: What is nine?

Answer: The number of years between the time the First Vision was said by Joseph Smith to have occurred and its discussion with the membership of the church. Question: What is 22?

Etc.

Category: The Kinderhook Plates

Answer: Where the characters on the Kinderhook Plates were derived from. Question: What is a tin of tea?

Answer: The name of the individual the history of whom Joseph Smith said the Kinderhook Plates recorded. Question: Who is Hamm?

Etc.

Category: LDS Church Finances

Answer: The estimated annual tithing revenue of the LDS Church. Question: What is $5 billion?

Answer: The cost of of the highest priced condominium in LDS church owned City Creek Center. Question: What is $1.2 million.

Answer: A low-paid church educator, his home is worth over $1 million. Question: Who is Boyd Packer

Answer: He retired as a modestly compensated university adminstrator in [year], but has already bought two homes worth $1.2 million, with the property tax bills sent to church headquarters. Question: Who is David Bednar

You get the idea.

I've played with it for a short time, and I could use some help. Is anyone interested in collaborating by providing categories, answers, and questions?

I think it might be a cool "missionary" tool to send people to.

Thanks for any thoughts.

The TBMs are waking up I can see it clearly in my own ward even the strongest long termers are whispering quietly, but no big noise yet,I fear for them if the truth ever comes out I think most of them would rather not know, they have invested all of there lives in Lds,how will they pick up the pieces and continue with there lives without the comfort of the church,someone needs to start a new type of community meeting place so that these people will still have comfort in each other, this is serious those people will need support to deal with the truth as it emerges which it will,it's unstoppable,the truth will out.
No doubt that the anointed one is considering this and maybe that's the reason for delay,I believe that the church GAs will do all in there power to stop Tom Phillips, I hope he continues the fight as he has promised,some things really are more important than money,where do we go from here???
