3) We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.
This is laughable at best. To think that jebus will save all mankind is honestly a sickening ideal. Why is it sickening? To think that something like 11 million people believe this and want everyone else to think the same. Yeah, just another example of the standard religious brainwashing bullshit.
now...the really unnerving part "obedience" which means believe what we tell you and don't you DARE think anything elsewise or you WILL be going to outer darkness (as mormons don't believe in hell like xians do). Yeah, that's something that the leaders of mormons push a LOT. That you must do what we say not what anyone else does and definitely do NOT think for yourself.
They're scared cause they know that if people actually thought for themselves that they would tell them all to fuck right off and go stick a hot iron rod up their ass. The people who lead any religion know full well that their followers are en masse too stupid to actually take the time to read what the religion is founded on. If they did, they would realize that there's only ONE religion out there that makes less sense than mormonism and that's scientology. Yes, scientologists are slightly crazier than mormons but not by much...at least scientologists didn't buy out an absolutely disgusting law like Prop 8 in California.
Personally, I will be ecstatic when the religious majority realizes that it's absurd to hold onto something as horrendous as religion and it's dogma and realizes that they don't need an invisible sky tyrant (who should also shove a red hot iron up his ass).
On a random and slightly related note. I started working with someone locally to start a computer repair business. On our way to grab some food while working on a machine someone drove by and the person commented that it's the local mormon bishop. I didn't really say much to that as I don't believe religion should be a part of any workplace (and no, a church isn't a workplace just a place to molest minds and kids). He said his wife goes but that he doesn't care for it, he has better things to think about and focus on.


I agree...I wish we'd move past these archaic thoughts already and allow the progression of the human race
