I am not on Jordan's side. He makes the same argument as white supremacists. But even broken clocks are right twice a day. Like the Harvard geneticist said, the white supremacists are not wrong to say Europeans are part Neanderthal and that Neanderthals had larger brains. But there's no evidence bigger brain meant, more intelligent. In fact, they were less well suited for survival, since th

According to a Pew survey, the most common, by far, one word association with the word, "Mormon" was polygamy/bigamy. https://www.pewforum.org/2007/09/26/public-expresses-mixed-views-of-islam-mormonism/ It is a 12yo survey, but still a barbaric reputation MORmONs will never overcome as long as they keep D&C 132 in print and revere polygamists/bigamists, like Joseph's Myth and

Interesting, not a word about the biggest Broadway hit of the 21st C, that advertises in the NYT every weekend, in 72pt Book of MORmON missionary font. Parody of the name, and embarrassment over people associating MORmONism with racism and polygamy, might have had something to do with the genius marketing program to give MORmONS mental whiplash.

Personally I think it is important to be clear with your family, especially your children, about your personal beliefs, so they do not get the mistaken impression that you support the abusive CULT you inherited. At the same time I personally felt a real responsibility to replace the faulty moral/ethical structure I inherited, with a more true, authentic and stable moral/ethical structure. Athei
