The Concept of Religious Freedom Gives Mormonism A License To Defraud

I don't think it's going to be possible (as much as I would desire it) to use the legal system to end Mormonism. It's going to take someone on the inside (a'la the Panama Papers) to expose LD$, Inc. Even then, the true believers (FLDS, AUB et. al) will continue to believe in what they think is the "truth."

Could the legal system do a better job of ending Mormonism than the Q15 is currently doing?

Re: The Concept of Religious Freedom Gives Mormonism A License To Defraud

Very good question.

One of the basic standards in the civil law is that a plaintiff must have "standing". Meaning that no way could I ask a court to enforce my curiosity to see the financials of the church. A church lawyer would easily prove to the court that I have no standing to sue, since I am obviously an apostate and have not given the church any money since 1970, when I was giving $9 per month.

So... could an 'active' member, a proven tithe payer, get a court to issue an order that he, the proven tithe payer, be shown all the financials of the church?
