Why did the Lamanites hunt down every last Nephite? You would think that after recovering their stolen gym equipment, the Lamanites would spend all of their time working out.

You don't think the church would calculate the gains derived from your hard-earned tithing and give you a cut? I mean, it's not like some kind of religious mafia. But if it is, Rusty is Mr Big. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EIDV4lVoIzI

Rather than try to answer such a difficult question, let me pose another. If celestial marriage is such a big deal, doesn't that make the relationship transactional? Do they marry for love, or for the mansion and servants in the CK?

If they were sealed in the LDS temple, wasn't he brain-damaged when she married him? LDS guys take risks that most guys don't. I'm not against doing dangerous things. However, you are responsible for studying all of the angles and not getting injured or killed. You can't leave safety to God or magic underwear. So, his condition is on him. That's quite a thing to put on a family. Some women

"Often in these cases, sexual abuse was shrouded as the correcting of posture, an aligning of chakras or explained away in the name of Tantra." I'll bet that one never occurred to Joseph Smith.
