And this from a guy who like Solomon of old judged people.

1. Fulness of Doctrine
Joe saw Jesus so we are the true Jesus people.

2. Power of the Priesthood
The Bible's priesthood authority was genetically inherited. But angels/resurrected dead people reconfirmed this authority back to earth after Jesus let it die.

3. Testimony of Jesus Christ
The messenger provided us with the testimony of Jesus Christ instead of a way to confirm through faith (i.e. First Vision.) Joe saw Jesus so we are the true Jesus people.

What a guy Jesus is/was.

is actually about Joseph Smiths testimony of Christ.

How often do you hear testimonies of coming to Christ, compared to The Church coming into their lives? How many times do you hear someone talk about how Jesus came into their lives compared to how thankful they are for the priesthood to help us?

And how many times do we hear a persons testimony of Christ without it being qualified by saying that it was through JSjr that this was possible.

...as if their salvation depended upon him and not Jesus.

christianity is brain-dead pseudo-judaism...

mormonism is brain-dead psuedo-christianity...

the UT LDS church is brain-dead pseudo-mormonism...

pseudo-sitchen maybe?

pseudo-bad science fiction writing?

He didn't really come up with new things, he copied and adapted and put his own little brand on it. His creations were syntheses of earlier examples. A true genius of cult creativity, admired by folks as diverse as Aleister Crowley and David Berg. A master con man. A true bullshit artist.

When you say "David Berg" do you mean the "Children of God" cult leader or do you mean the Mad Magazine artist?


just askin'

Yeah, at F$T meeting people say: "And *I* KNOW Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God!"

At how many Christian Church services would you get someone leaping up and saying: "And *I* KNOW Moses was a true prophet of God?"

...aren't really Christian.
