@ztayl134 To be a cult doesn't mean it has to take its members and beats them in a dark room. Technically all religions are cults since they all practice some form of mind and perception control so if you believe anything without evidence and it has doctrine then it is a cult.
Truth: You never understood the Restored Gospel to begin with. You had faith in the anti mormon literature more than the Restored Gospel. You sought out excuses to leave the church instead of reasons to stay. You can discredit any religion if you wanted to by logic or common sense. That is why faith is required. I have been challenged and I know that the Restored Gospel is true and I do not live on blinde faith because I have tested it, read the scriptures and gained a real testimony of it.
@MichealKimHeart "Faith" means believing something that has no evidence to support it. It is not a desirable quality in rational people. People leaving a church because they refuse to merely accept what a priest or a Holy book tells them is a good thing.
@MichealKimHeart The truth doesn't hurt....it sets you free! It's time to ditch the faith, and put your time and effort into something real.

@elderbrianadams That is actually referring to the fall of the temple, which did happen in that generation. The disciples had asked Jesus two questions that he was answering. The fall of the temple was to be in that generation, and no one but the Father knows when the end times will be (which he says only a few verses later).

@megaead69 I hope people don't see this life as a strategic chess match pitting one of us against another. In the cited passage it talks about the thing that follows the prophet being that which proves whether he speaks for God or not. I believe the words that were spoken to us through Joseph Smith. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the Gospel of our Savior have made me a better person. I hope that we all get to Heaven.
@buzzburner50 Its not about you though, its not, its about us, for everyone. If you only focus on you, and how you are categorically a better person...that doesn't mean anything, its like saying you have really clean fingernails. Ok. So what? But in truth, I think you should not worry about whether people fit into your vision of god. Your right, its not a chess match! I hope that we can relieve the suffering of children starving, oppressed and alone here, now, in this reality.
@toof I agree, inasmuch as you are talking of the desire for people's suffering to be quelled. However, we can't just "make everything better" even if we want so bad to do so. Our ability to choose for ourselves is what makes this life so great. If we were forced to return to our Father in Heaven, it would not be worth it. Choosing to live the Gospel of Christ, to love and to serve others makes this world great. Even Heavenly Father had to sit by and weep as Christ suffered for our sins.
@toof it wasn't fair that Christ suffered but he willingly did so. I am forever indebted to my Savior, Jesus Christ. I cannot make anybody choose happiness. I cannot make you happier. I cannot do any of this for anyone else. I can only do my part. I am far from perfect and know that the only way to return to live with my Heavenly Father is through repentance and forgiveness through Jesus Christ's atonement.

I find it ironic that the "kicker" for her leaving the church was the false prophecy of Joseph Smith, which sounded like a plagiarism of the false prophecy of Jesus. And she still believes in Jesus!
Matthew 24:34 The famous false prophecy of Jesus. Sounds almost word for word like the false prophecy of Joseph Smith. Neither prophecy came true...let alone within "this generation." Unless they were speaking in code (and if so, what use is prophecy?), then J. Smith AND Jesus were false..
@Brainbust100 Maybe the generation Jesus was referring to DID endure these things w/o realizing it. The Bible’s intent is NOT to make us aware of PHYSICAL happenings, but of SPIRITUAL things that CORRESPOND to physical counterparts. Famine corresponds to stretches of time w/o TRUTH to nourish souls. Wars correspond to times of inner turmoil (do what’s pleasing to GOD, or pleasing 2ME in the moment?) Each individual of every generation makes choices that determine final destination.
Critical thinking is important! The literal meaning of any text must be questioned, because I feel that all your criticism of Mormonism is based entirely on the Bible, and how can anyone know if it is true or not? There is no clear, verifiable empirical evidence. I think that nobody is in any position to criticize another religion based on their own dogma. Nobody can truly claim to know the supreme truth for sure (and if think you do, prove it!) Thanks for sharing your experience, though.
@Pacem321 I think your wrong, mormonism can and has been greatly criticized for valid reasons. It is unique in that the formation of the church and the history of its early leaders has been very well documented. Anyone who cares enough to learn about these matters in an unbiased manner will most likely obtain a good understanding of how the forces of greed for money and power can control men.
@1overthehillsfaraway I am not saying that Mormonism CANNOT be criticized for valid reasons, just that the Bible is not exactly my idea of a valid reason.
I want to ask the mormons a very important question have you ever read the book of enoch and why havent you read it you read the book of mormon why not the book of enoch?
@joshanator1 he is normal but he has addiction to females under a certain age blaim porn for his mistakes at the same time diss miss him he proably is also demon possessed let him be who he is for there are consequences on his actions if he decides to do those actions.
@joshanator1 bsl also might be a mormon it has not been proven but he might be one. He might also be raised around a family who molested him or some other drama in his life or her life who knows it might be a she male we dont know alls we know is the comment of the individual brings up suspicion and he or she was not ready for this comment being said about them in the process lol.
lol whether you move from the mormon church to the christian church or become a muslim or any of the religions, you still haven't really done anything. There isn't one shred of evidence to back up either of them so comparing what one religion says to another and saying its false prophecy and cant be trusted, let me just say, ALL religion is false prophecy. NEITHER of the religions are true. It is all dogma, brainwashing delusional nonsense. Use your logic.
I have great respect for your courage in being so open about what you belive. I'm sure it will help many struggling with the same issues. You should be very proud of yourself. I hope life treats you and yours well. Thank you. OT.
@monkigun if you want to go dig up the plates from the Hill Cumorah in Palmyra, New York, you can. Otherwise, read the Book of Mormon with an open mind seeking to know if it is of God or the Devil. In the Joseph Smith History, Joseph has one of his scribes take it to a professor, Charles Anthon, who "stated the translation [from the Gold Plates] was correct, more so than any he had before seen translated from Egyptian." It's all there in the Book of Mormon, just go read it.
@samkreitzer I have read the Book of Mormon with an open mind and it doesn't ring true. There is no evidence of technology described in BOM anywhere in Pre-Columbian western Hemisphere. BOM says there were wheeled Chariots (Alma 18:9) and there were no wheeled vehicles . Steel swords ( Ether 7:9) but there was never steel or swords. BOM says there were horses and elephants ( Ether 9:19) in America and there is no evidence of horses at that time let alone elephants.
@monkigun Native American Legend speaks of horses as being brought by The Spanish I live on the West coast and there was never any mention of horses in any Native stories here The First Nations people are not from Israel Give me a break.
@CJTELE I agree with you 100% Sorry for the confusion. There is archeological evidence of an ancient type of horse that became extinct long before the Native Americans populated the Western Hemisphere. However the Book of Mormon states that they existed here in the America in the Pre - Columbian times of the Native Americans and there is not any evidence of this whatsoever anywhere.
@monkigun I have read your comments and agree with you about all of the inaccuracies in the book of mormon. More so, I have read about the man joseph smith and his life... which should really be a testament to the realities of the world he lived in and how and why he managed to dream up the idea of mormonism. It is scary to think that people of the mormon faith now... they don't care about these things! A person can't expect to lead a better life through lies and imaginary stories!
what about other predictions like D&C 130:12-13 Joseph Smith predicted the Civil war 30 years before it and even named the reason and place it began. or how bout John 10:34 & Psalms 82:6, ye are gods. and if you research there are lots of archeoligy findings supporting the B.o.M even here on youtube just search mormon proof. above all, glad you got your man;)
I have asked myself all if these questions. Since I was very little, about 7, I have had doubts, questions, and contradictions spinning around in my head. I have done much praying, scripture study and debating with youth leaders and adults. I have also debated with my fellow peers as well. I live in the south, which means EVERYONE is really open about religion and similar matters. So I have had a lot of arguing, realizations, and moments where we just agree to disagree.
Beautiful testimony, thanks! I too was Mormon (for the first 20 years of my life), and by the grace of God I developed a hunger for reading the Bible and after reading it from cover to cover it was crystal clear that the LDS church and it's doctrines were in bold contradiction to the Bible's teachings in literally hundreds of instances. At this point I knew that they both couldn't be correct, and through prayer and study I was AMAZED to learn how trust worthy the Bible really is. Galatians 1:8
does it really matter? If you believe everything you read, it doesn't matter what book it comes from, your still a brainwashed slave of religion. Mormon idiots started a religion from a con man who was shot by an angry mob while in prison. Too bad the fucking Mormon religion didn't die with him.
I'm joyus in hearing that your Saviour is Jesus Christ! May you be blessed and check out Joseph Prince on youtube. He some amazing sermons speaking on Gods Grace! Jesus! I love that you came into a relationship with Jesus! May you be blessed!!! Thank you for your true testimony!!!
If the Mormon doctrines are true then they will survive scrutiny. The Mormon "church" should make their documents and writings available to scholars and inquisitors to scrutinize. The Truth demands it.
And never fear sweetie, there is NO hell you will burn in! Just by be willing to do what's right, you have probably already had to suffer for your beliefs, as I know it must be very difficult if your family remains LDS to do what you have done, as it was for me. There is NO God to bless you. If there were, "He's", (and as you point out, it must be a man) certainly an "underachiever" considering the current world we live in.
Thank goodness we have such wonderful young people in this world such as you. Continue to do your research..go to the University and study science. Never be intimidated by the religious "believers" on your website, as you are much further advanced in your beliefs than they are. I went on a Mormon Mission when I was 19 and I'm the same age as Mittens Romney. We can not allow these religious theocrats to have the power of the Presidency in this country, a secular nation, with true freedom!
i herd in the mormon temple they be wife swapping you people is sick. in heaven they dont judge you by your clothes they judge you for what you done in life
@bt13701 no you mormons will burn in hell for putting joseph smith before jesus you dumb asses. the book of mormon is nothing but lies who wrote not any prophets from the bible... it says it in the bible there will be many false prophets like joseph smith. FUCK JOSEPH SMITH
@115ygbamboo hey moron, the name of their church is the church of JESUS CHRIST....and unless you've read the book of mormon, you can't have an opinion on it. From a Lutheran.
@agelessrocker I'VE read the Book of Mormon, you dumb fuck! Lots of plagiarism, I mean, the plot is going on when, suddenly, it starts saying verbatim something from Isaiah that has absolutely NOTHING to fucking do with the plot! Joseph Smith was a liar! Joseph Smith will NOT judge me in the last days, and Joseph Smith is in hell today!
@ladylyrarose18 I'm LDS but, like Tupac told Napoleon when he converted to Islam, "I Ain't Mad At Cha." lol I don't care what religion you are cuz I got nothing but love for ya!! :)
Hello! I've been watching some of your videos, Im an ex Jehovah's Witness, I was disfellowshipped a couple of months ago for asking questions. I've got it all recorded and on my channel and I've made two small videos I think you might be interested in, The Watchtower and the Masons part 1 and 2. It applies to Mormons aswell and I highly recommend you watch Bill Shnoebelen The Light Behind Freemasonary, its an eye opener. Adam
Thank you so much for sharing. It is amazing how false prophesies are common in the Jehovah's Wintesses and Mormons in being one of the main reasons for people leaving those cults. Congratulations! I hope some JWs view this too!
Great job you did some research, now you should question religion in general. I can promise you that you will find plenty of false prophecy delving into the bible. It's right there in front of you
If the mormons believe that satan and jesus christ are brothers and the bible says that we are all gods children then whom does that make satan to the children? UNCLE SATAN? And god is not a man that lives on planet kolob. The bible says god i7 a spirit that is forever unchanging and our father that art in heaven !
From one Batshit religion to the next. You will only be able to free your mind from this nonsense when you realize it's all retarded. Jesus and the bible are ancient bed time stories for people that didn't have the technology to explain our world.
Your presentation is so loving and nonjudgmental that if I were not already a Christian, born again, I would look into what you are saying. Hopefully you will help to save many from the error of rejecting the work that Jesus Christ did on the cross. Thank you for being courageous enuf to speak out and stand up for truth.
...but God does ask you to have blind faith. That's what religion is: faith. Critical thinking and logic lead you to... athiesm. I think you're already on the track there, sister. When you're ready to join the athiest fold, we'll welcome you with open arms.
in any case, i don´t see the difference between "thinking for yourself" and "staying indoctrinated.
I used to think that thinking for yourself was the logical way, but then i took an arrow to the knee... hehe JK
then i accepted that what you do is not really thinking for yourself but placing the information your recieve through a psycological filter and then believing you are watching the whole picture, when you clearly are not.
@feuerkavalier Well, you've almost answered yourself. Of cause we all see not reality but its model in our heads, highlighting expected details and dimming awkward. "Thinking for yourself" (or critical thinking) is exactly about understanding human condition and your limitations, exposing yourself to uncomfortable information and constant reevaluation of what you "know" in the light of new experience. If you can't see how that's different from blind acceptance, I can't help you.
@ but if you agree with the fact that our understanding is not pure due to our psycological limitations, then you are saying that thinking for yourself or even trying to "unveil the truth" is something you do "just because" since you are never going to reach a final conclusion.
That´s a choice, and it comes before the "discovery of truth", so that´s where beliefs jump into the game(weather religious, secular, or just because your psycology determined you that way)
@feuerkavalier False dichotomy, as not white =/= black. Just because we are dealing with uncertainty doesn't make every method equally good. I don't need perfect understanding of reality, working approximation will do. And critical thinking provides the best models, as it controls errors and provides scalable networking. Where one mind can't comprehend reality, it can rely on self-correcting consensus of peer-checked experts. In contrast religions/cults exploit human condition.
but this would not be uncertainty, as if we were talking about not knowing if we are right. instead we are dealing with knowing that due to our limitations, we know we are wrong!
maybe someone can think that by reaching consensus you decrease that level of uncertainty but i see this not as if we were trying to find something in common but as if we were looking for something else, wether it involves what we agree, disagree, or never even considered
still i don´t agree with aproximation or "greys" being ok. maybe in hard ciences you can have a degree of unpredictability and things will still work(Eg: newtons gravity equations pre-relativity) but in a more philosophical approach, it´s like saying that you follow this line of thought(EG: existentialism) but you take some fact that you consider interesting from other currents(even if there is no way to blend them into the logical patern.
@feuerkavalier I don't see how this analogy can work, but anyway, the question was about the difference between free thinking and religion. Where truth is unobtainable, one side acknowledges it and tries to be as right as it can, while the other pretends to know the truth and dismisses any contradictions. You can disagree with either, but you can't claim they are the same.
theoreticaly speaking, no one should expect to become an atheist,but i find it quite common to see practical atheists who don´t even care about this kind of matters, elaborate some simple arguments just to justify their position(to justify the way they act to themselves). when these kind of atheists find the arguments they need, they just stop questioning, or even worse, keep questioning what they have "disproved"(proving their arguments are not enough
@Gregorio1234ify, Mormons certainly do Praise Joseph Smith. Check out your hymn books, "Praise To The Man," hymn #27.... as for the young woman Joseph Smith preyed on, google "Helen Kimball Marr" for starters.
I had to leave the Mormon church because I love beer. And having sex. Not at the same time. Oh, ok. At the same time. And the elders were extremely angry at me that I would drink and phu... well you know.. at the same time. I was raised in the church but frankly had too many questions they could not answer. they were too dogmatic also.
The wisest decision you made was to leave the Mormon religion like thousands of people, but only a few with courage go on youtube and share the true false prophecies... However, Mormons are good people, but belief in the God and prophet...
The onely religion which is misconceived and extremely hated in the west and extremely the only true religion is Islam. There is ONLY one God and Jesus and the rest of the 124,000 prophets were the messengers of God.
new jerusalem was not far west and some of the prophacies in thew new testament have not come to pass yet when it is said this generation so do you not belive the bible either because the lords timeframe is not ours and you have lost the whole truth for what seemed easier good jod giving up
I love this, your story of finding the truth on your own cannot be argued. God chooses believers and he definitely chose you to be a living testimony of his works.
I love what u r doing but you need a true bible....and put that one in the trash fast...keep up the go work :)

@megaead69 I hope people don't see this life as a strategic chess match pitting one of us against another. In the cited passage it talks about the thing that follows the prophet being that which proves whether he speaks for God or not. I believe the words that were spoken to us through Joseph Smith. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the Gospel of our Savior have made me a better person. I hope that we all get to Heaven.

@buzzburner50 Its not about you though, its not, its about us, for everyone. If you only focus on you, and how you are categorically a better person...that doesn't mean anything, its like saying you have really clean fingernails. Ok. So what? But in truth, I think you should not worry about whether people fit into your vision of god. Your right, its not a chess match! I hope that we can relieve the suffering of children starving, oppressed and alone here, now, in this reality.

@toof I agree, inasmuch as you are talking of the desire for people's suffering to be quelled. However, we can't just "make everything better" even if we want so bad to do so. Our ability to choose for ourselves is what makes this life so great. If we were forced to return to our Father in Heaven, it would not be worth it. Choosing to live the Gospel of Christ, to love and to serve others makes this world great. Even Heavenly Father had to sit by and weep as Christ suffered for our sins.
buzzburner50 2 days ago
@toof it wasn't fair that Christ suffered but he willingly did so. I am forever indebted to my Savior, Jesus Christ. I cannot make anybody choose happiness. I cannot make you happier. I cannot do any of this for anyone else. I can only do my part. I am far from perfect and know that the only way to return to live with my Heavenly Father is through repentance and forgiveness through Jesus Christ's atonement.

I find it ironic that the "kicker" for her leaving the church was the false prophecy of Joseph Smith, which sounded like a plagiarism of the false prophecy of Jesus. And she still believes in Jesus!
Matthew 24:34 The famous false prophecy of Jesus. Sounds almost word for word like the false prophecy of Joseph Smith. Neither prophecy came true...let alone within "this generation." Unless they were speaking in code (and if so, what use is prophecy?), then J. Smith AND Jesus were false..

@Brainbust100 Maybe the generation Jesus was referring to DID endure these things w/o realizing it. The Bible’s intent is NOT to make us aware of PHYSICAL happenings, but of SPIRITUAL things that CORRESPOND to physical counterparts. Famine corresponds to stretches of time w/o TRUTH to nourish souls. Wars correspond to times of inner turmoil (do what’s pleasing to GOD, or pleasing 2ME in the moment?) Each individual of every generation makes choices that determine final destination.

Critical thinking is important! The literal meaning of any text must be questioned, because I feel that all your criticism of Mormonism is based entirely on the Bible, and how can anyone know if it is true or not? There is no clear, verifiable empirical evidence. I think that nobody is in any position to criticize another religion based on their own dogma. Nobody can truly claim to know the supreme truth for sure (and if think you do, prove it!) Thanks for sharing your experience, though.

@Pacem321 I think your wrong, mormonism can and has been greatly criticized for valid reasons. It is unique in that the formation of the church and the history of its early leaders has been very well documented. Anyone who cares enough to learn about these matters in an unbiased manner will most likely obtain a good understanding of how the forces of greed for money and power can control men.

@monkigun if you want to go dig up the plates from the Hill Cumorah in Palmyra, New York, you can. Otherwise, read the Book of Mormon with an open mind seeking to know if it is of God or the Devil. In the Joseph Smith History, Joseph has one of his scribes take it to a professor, Charles Anthon, who "stated the translation [from the Gold Plates] was correct, more so than any he had before seen translated from Egyptian." It's all there in the Book of Mormon, just go read it.

Beautiful testimony, thanks! I too was Mormon (for the first 20 years of my life), and by the grace of God I developed a hunger for reading the Bible and after reading it from cover to cover it was crystal clear that the LDS church and it's doctrines were in bold contradiction to the Bible's teachings in literally hundreds of instances. At this point I knew that they both couldn't be correct, and through prayer and study I was AMAZED to learn how trust worthy the Bible really is. Galatians 1:8

feuerkavalier 2 weeks ago
@feuerkavalier Well, you've almost answered yourself. Of cause we all see not reality but its model in our heads, highlighting expected details and dimming awkward. "Thinking for yourself" (or critical thinking) is exactly about understanding human condition and your limitations, exposing yourself to uncomfortable information and constant reevaluation of what you "know" in the light of new experience. If you can't see how that's different from blind acceptance, I can't help you.
27182818284590452354 2 weeks ago
@ but if you agree with the fact that our understanding is not pure due to our psycological limitations, then you are saying that thinking for yourself or even trying to "unveil the truth" is something you do "just because" since you are never going to reach a final conclusion.
That´s a choice, and it comes before the "discovery of truth", so that´s where beliefs jump into the game(weather religious, secular, or just because your psycology determined you that way)
feuerkavalier 2 weeks ago
@feuerkavalier False dichotomy, as not white =/= black. Just because we are dealing with uncertainty doesn't make every method equally good. I don't need perfect understanding of reality, working approximation will do. And critical thinking provides the best models, as it controls errors and provides scalable networking. Where one mind can't comprehend reality, it can rely on self-correcting consensus of peer-checked experts. In contrast religions/cults exploit human condition.
27182818284590452354 2 weeks ago
@27182818284590452354
but this would not be uncertainty, as if we were talking about not knowing if we are right. instead we are dealing with knowing that due to our limitations, we know we are wrong!
maybe someone can think that by reaching consensus you decrease that level of uncertainty but i see this not as if we were trying to find something in common but as if we were looking for something else, wether it involves what we agree, disagree, or never even considered

feuerkavalier 2 weeks ago
@feuerkavalier I don't see how this analogy can work, but anyway, the question was about the difference between free thinking and religion. Where truth is unobtainable, one side acknowledges it and tries to be as right as it can, while the other pretends to know the truth and dismisses any contradictions. You can disagree with either, but you can't claim they are the same.
