Now, how many houses does he have?

THAT would be refreshing.

Many of the Bible verses cited today to promote misogynistic attitudes were not the words of Jesus, but of Paul of Tarsus (or rather, later edits to his writings). It has been argued that Jesus was not as misogynistic as the religion which was to take his name, as the Gospel of Mary and Gospel of Thomas suggest that Mary Magdalene was not a "hanger on," but rather was a full disciple in her own right. There are also suggestions that the very early church had conflicting views on women, as catacombs with painting of women in roles of authority have been found dating to the first and second century CE.*

Especially, when you consider the time he was living in. He saved a woman from being stoned to death for adultery. He told men that divorcing their wives is immoral and remarrying is adultery. He treated "sinful" women with love and respect. He held women up as models of faith. For that time period, most of that stuff was inconceivable.

Paul of Tarsus though... that guy was honestly probably insane. He didn't just have hang ups about women, he had pretty odd beliefs about human sexuality in general.

I was thinking of The Pope, Tertullian, Martin Luther, Clement of Alexandria, John Calvin, John Knox and on and on and on.

How did they have any time for Golden Tablets?

It doesn't look like he had that "magic underwear" on too much. But I guess the blessed drawers work faster than a cell phone charger.

This makes perfect sense: The entire point of polygamy is to maximize your baby making. Why COULDN'T there be seven or eight men in these harems, to provide the women with the maximum opportunity to have sex when they ovulate?

If I remember correctly, his specific marriages are mentioned in their holy books.

The founder was also a racist. I'm not sure how much worse people can feel about their leader when having 40 wives, at this point, is just poop frosting on the poop cake that is the LDS Religion.

How many cats did he have?

Admit schmidt... I grew up in Utah. This is common knowledge.

Got it.

After his conviction he thought, now if this were called a religion I could swindle all the people I want, get a tax free status, and "marry" lots of teenage girls. Score!!!

Being a prophet is the greatest job in the world.

special interests of LDS. By 1890 no one knew who was related to who. This religion has no right to argue about marriage in any form. Yet they were the force behind Prop 8.

They practice proxy baptism of the dead in order to save them or whatever. There's been uproar over the years when it comes out they've been baptizing Jewish people that died during the Holocaust.

times over in order to save our dead ancestors. Especially the Native American ones.

'cause doing that would be an admission that they'd been---you guessed it---CONNED!
