Black people? Curse? Umm, those were all lies, Joseph Smith and Brigham Young didn't say anything about that.

There’s a cute Mormon chick that knocks on my door and tries to get me to read this with her. How do I have sex with her without converting bros?

It says that it will be patched parodically and that you too can grow up to be a dev(inity)

>>20705935
Based. If you actually read it you will see it really doesn't introduce many new ideas that aren't in the bible, just added more stories and perspectives.

Yeah the prose is bad and it's extremely literal, but it's hilarious for other protestants to get mad at this books existence.

Yeah I'm gonna read about Nephi building a boat. OH NO HE IS ADDING TO GODS WORD.

Gimme a qrd on Jesus taking a vacation in America.

As far as I know, most of what mainstream Christians (Orthos, Caths, and mainline Prots) call heretical ideas in Mormonism aren't from the Book of Mormon itself, but some of the other texts in the standars works (PoGP, D&C) which have ideas in radical opposition to standard Christian theology

>>20706873
Mormonism is pagan. The idea that God was once a man and became God is straight out of pagan ideas of apotheosis, as is the idea that man can become just like God (don’t give me bullshit about theosis, it’s different). The idea of matter existing eternally is pagan as well, contradicting Christian ex nihilo. It’s literal polytheism and Masonry

Have you tried telling her that GOD wants her to suck your cock

>>20706971
Not yet but I think she’d see through that one. Are the women allowed to be polygamous too?

>>20707814
The practice of polygamy was discontinued in 1890

Probably true. Things have degenerated from the sublime King James version of the bible to drivel such as: "And it is impossible for the tongue to describe, or for man to write a perfect description of the horrible scene of the blood and carnage which was among the people ..."

>Final patch of God's word dropped, there wont be any more revisions from now on

>>20707831
Why? Let me guess, Jews?

>>20706969
>God was once a man and became God
Not in the BOM.

>The idea of matter existing eternally is pagan
We don't even know what those sentences mean. There just isn't a whole lot of metaphysics in any scripture. It's safe to take a Kantian approach, God exists in a greater plane than the time and space we perceive. It's foolish to think you can know how the universe works.

>radical opposition

I would say different than what has been taught in mainstream Christianity, not incompatible what's found in the Bible (anymore than Catholics or whatever)

> Inb4 someone posts some obscure quote by someone

Yeah church organizations involve a lot of people saying a lot of stuff over generations.

>qrd on Jesus taking a vacation in America.

Families at various times have been guided to leave Israel in the old world and come to new. They have experiences as civilizations and a lot of their success has to do with following God. Lots of prophets and stuff old testament style.

Scriptures teach about Jesus coming and give signs. Many people don't believe the signs. There is a lot of chaos leading up to it. When he comes the scriptures just quote a lot of teachings from Matthew.

Covers several hundred years after Christ leading to most of the people being destroyed and their historical records being abridged and buried by last prophet.

There will be another patch when the Book of Lehi finally drops

I hope this is a joke because otherwise I'll have to disgard all your works I didn't read.
