So, if the stories are true, Joseph Smith met one angel who stole some golden plates worth probably somewhere around $785,000 dollars (just based on the value of the gold content alone). God never said that the plates belonged to that angel, but when it came time for Joseph Smith to show the world hard evidence in the form of the golden plates that he had unearthed in a dig that he had done not far from his home, it turned out that the angel had already absconded and taken the plates with him without so much as a howdy-doo.
Joseph had to come up with some face-saving story about the angel taking the plates to heaven. But c'mon, we know that's not what happened. Angels don't take archaeological artifacts "up to heaven". What are they going to do with artifacts up in heaven? (My sources on the inside tell me that Moroni's nickname in heaven is "Sticky Fingers" and, as a resurrected being, he melted down the plates and has been using the proceeds to finance a very lavish lifestyle, spending most of his time in the Acapulco area.)
Later on, Joseph met some bullying angel that apparently wanted to watch Joseph Smith have sex with Fanny Alger and other women, even going so far as to threaten Joseph with a sword in order to bully Joseph having sex with Zina, presumably so the angel could watch. (My same sources on the inside tell me that this angel is the notorious "Porn Angel". He wasn't even authorized to threaten people into committing adultery. He's not a resurrected being, but according to rumors he's a big player in the porn video industry out in California now. He calls himself the "Porn Muse".)
So you have the porn-addict angel and the sticky fingers angel. When it came to Joseph Smith, I don't think the Lard was sending his best angels. Kind of makes the whole restoration project seem a bit suspect--at best.
Any other dubious angels in Mormonism?
