THE CLAIMS PRESIDENT NELSON HAS MADE THAT WERE RED FLAGS

1.) One Engine on a small Two Engine plane Exploded.2.) Said Engine caught fire.3.) In the Explosion flammable material was spread to the plane and the plane itself was on fire.4.) The plane did a “Death Spiral” which extinguished the fire5.) The Pilot “turned on the Other Engine”6.) The plane landed in a “Farmer’s Field”

THE FACTS THAT ALLOWED OTHERS TO NARROW WHAT TO LOOK FOR

1.) The Date of the flight was reported as November 12, 19762.) He was flying from SLC to St. George to attend the inauguration of W. Rolfe Kerr as the president of Dixie College.3.) Anytime a plane incurs a malfunction or there is a mechanical flight issue or pilot error the Law requires such to be recorded. The Explosion would necessitate a publicly available recorded log report. The plane on fire would necessitate a publicly available recorded log report. The Death Spiral would necessitate a publicly available recorded log report. The landing in a Farmer’s Field would necessitate a publicly available recorded log report.

IF THE STORY OCCURRED THE WAY PRESIDENT NELSON HAS REPORTED, THERE ABSOLUTELY WOULD BE A REPORT THAT IS PUBLICLY AVAILABLE. MOST FABRICATIONS HINGE ON SOME GRAIN OF TRUTH, SO MANY IN THE POST-MORMON COMMUNITY WENT INTO DETECTIVE MODE.

THE FLIGHT REPORT FOR THIS FLIGHT WAS FINALLY LOCATED (IT WAS DIFFICULT TO FIND DUE TO THE MUNDANE ISSUES INCURRED THAT SEEMINGLY CONTRADICT NELSON’S STORY )

1.) Engine never exploded and continued to run though rough2.) There was no Engine Fire.3.) The Plane itself was never on fire4.) The Other Engine was never off4.) The plane made a “Precautionary" landing (meaning it didn't have to land except company policy dictates so) at the airport in Delta Utah and not a farmer’s field5.) There are other smaller issues with number of passengers, length of flight, cutting fuel line to both engines, and the date of the flight but we grant some benefit of the doubt for distorted memory.

If the Church or its defenders want to claim the conclusion that this flight one day earlier is NOT the flight President Nelson is speaking about, then the burden of proof is on them to provide the evidence. To claim there was another “SKY WEST” flight also going from SLC TO SAINT GEORGE” that had “WORSE ISSUES” “ONE DAY LATER”, then provide the “MANDATORY PUBLICLY AVAILABLE FLIGHT REPORT” of said flight. Without such, said conclusion by the defenders would require more conjecture and allowances.

after all, fanciful tales are the very foundation of the Book of MORmON hoax and the Book of MORmON church SCAM

even so, Russell has a long way to go to begin to compete with the real masters of Book of MORmON church BS and LIES

RFM and Brother Reel did a nice presentation on this. They hit it on the head when I think it was RFM who says, if the current prophet and leaders can lie and deceive, that makes it much easier to believe the founders did too.

Rusty has been telling the tall tale for 45 years now... and told it enough that even he believes it now.

I was going to say the same thing. Paul Dunn wasn’t a liar either. He was just teaching lessons through parables. Although they made him an emeritus rather quickly to take the focus off his li… I mean “parables.” I don’t think they’ll do the emeritus prophet thing. Rusty will be out of commission soon.

Sure, but it’s okay. He’s lying for the Lord. You have to remember the GAs have Postum in the temple with Jesus. The work needs to go forth. Facts just get in the way.

All church leaders are groomed to lie. Imagine what an ego trip it must be to believe you are the mouthpiece of God and the leader of the only "true" church on earth. That makes the "prophet" the most important man on earth!

Being the most important man on the planet and the only man who talks with God brings a lot of pressure. Twice a year he stands before all church members to spew out oh so important words. He needs a story - - a really good faith promoting story. So he fabricates a little and then rationalizes that it's okay to fabricate because it's for the greater good.

I was just a nobody peon in the Mormon church, but after giving 2.5 minute talks in church starting when I was 13 years old, I'd often imagine myself giving a talk after having an experience I thought would be great to share with the congregation. For example, If I had a near miss bicycle accident, I'd imagine myself standing before the congregation at the church podium, telling about my brush with death and how I was sure I was being looked after. I did this frequently while TBM - always mentally creating a talk after an experience I thought would move church members, and imagining myself delivering my experience verbally to a very impressed and riveted-to-my-every-word congregation. LOL.

The "prophet" is the regular church member on steroids. He has to deliver a faith promoting message to the entire church. So when Nelson was in a plane that experienced turbulence, he could picture himself in general conference delivering a talk about his near death experience and how he KNEW he was being looked after because he said a prayer.

The prophet has to lie. He doesn't receive revelation or have a conversation with God. Like the rest of us when TBM, he's been groomed to zero in on feelings and give them meaning. A good feeling is "the spirit." A bad feeling is "the adversary." Same with good and bad experiences. They are not random but have meaning that can be spun into a faith promoting talk in church or article in the Ensign. Such pressure. Of course the "prophet" is going to fabricate and exaggerate.

Unlike "normal" people going through a scary experience on a plane, Nelson, like all good TBMs, imagined himself in church, giving a talk about what happened on the plane. He could picture himself on the podium and the audience riveted to his every word. If a little embellishment of the facts creates "the spirit" it's all good.

Ha! Ha! I don’t know that we teach that. The use of the word Mormon is of the devil. Cancel the Book of Mormon pageant and put Jesus in the front window.

He doesn't care! His power position is secure. TBM's will not believe the story no matter if it is true or not. their minds are closed to any such truths about "the prophet"
The proceedure is Preach tell the truth!!
Then lie lie lie

How could he be a liar? Regarding the Covid vaccine, he said:

"We have prayed for this literal godsend. Receiving the vaccine is part of our personal efforts to be good global citizens."

In addition:

“Today, we are pleased to announce three key initiatives that have emerged from our many discussions and prayerful planning,” said President Russell M. Nelson at a news conference, shortly after meeting with NAACP leadership in the Church Administration Building on Temple Square in Salt Lake City.
