Below are a list of some of the ways I feel the MormonCult demonstrates, without a shadow of a doubt, it lacks integrity and empathy.

* Outlawing critical thinking, questioning and doubting because they say so. Freedom is non-existent in this facist organization. It is their way or the highway.

* Continuous deceitful cover-ups of the cult's lies and sleazy behavior with slick words, harm, hush money and even causing death from the beginning of the cult to the present.

* "Stealing by guilting" tithing money from single parents, widows, poverty victims and children.... without the MormonCult blinking an eye.

* Use of mind control from nursery on to program youth, admonishing them they must serve in the abusive and Nazi-like missionary prison if they are to be looked on as "good and faithful Latter-Day Saints."

* Maligning the meaning of "family" to mean only "a Mormon-church-controlled family", defined as one that consists of one mother and one father who are to bear children, who then must be taught by these parents to obey, pray and pay the Mormon way.

Care to add some of your thoughts to the list?

*Harming anyone who chooses to leave the organization by marking them as faithless apostates.

Pretty good laundry list there of what's required to be a good little Mormon bot.

Been there, done that already. It came up short, not the other way around. Who needs that kind of regimentation and control?

Giving up autonomy and personal freedom for that mental prison?

No thank you.

:)

NO accountability for "leaders".

That's why they can do whatever they please.

Honesty, Kindness. Repentance & Forgiving, along with mercy, compassion Don't Apply to them.period.

The unspoken rule/law of "Lying for the Lord" counters any notion of integrity in Mormonism.

It becomes OK to lie, cover up, spread falsehoods, destroy reputations, harming others, all in the name of "Lying for the Lord" if the member has decided the other person is not "worthy" and is being led by Satan. This applies, particularly, to those who have left the LDS Church.

Those believers that divorce a new non-believer are perfect candidates for the onslaught of denigration, lies, false accusations, etc. It's OK in the member's mind to completely destroy the non-believer in the name of "Lying for the Lord". They will lie while under oath in court, lie to the police, lie to bosses, and on and on. The believer becomes convinced they are being supported by the Lord as the non-believer is evil and must be destroyed.

If you say NO to a calling or church demanded service, then you have just said NO to the Lord.

I think leaders used to whip out the scripture that read something like If it's by my voice or my servant's it is the same.

You were always expected to say yes to whatever a leader wanted you to do.

No music. No poetry. No art. No expression. No imagination. No joy. No soul. No dissent. No questions. No universe. No emotion. No interaction. Just do as you are told and grunt the same old standardized accompanied rituals

Lying for the Lord.

Sacred, not secret.

Left to their own devices, most human beings will invest their 'investibles' with whomever offers the highest rate of return. This trait is what allows Ponzi schemes to exist. Whatever the best legitimate rate of return is, ponzi scammers promise more...

Thanks to religion, the belief that death is not the end of personality exists. And whatever is being promised as a rate of return by one religion, another religion can claim to beat. Mormonism has details about where we came from, why we're here and where we're going. Ponzi to the max!

And in order to make the investment valid, 'rules' must be observed, and orders followed, or what you've invested will be lost.

Exmos have cried "Bullshit" to the invesment managers. TBMs either genuinely believe in their investment and struggle to get the pay off, or just give it lip service because....well, I don't really know!! If you know you're not worthy, based on the rules, why continue to pretend?

And of course, after a certain amount of time, what you've invested keeps you hanging in there, as you hope and pray for the expected return on investment, the sacred ROI.

Mormonism helps you become a Genuine Fake.


That's not easy.
