My atheist daughter asked me to prove God's existence. What do I tell her? She is 19.

@antiantimormon @JaguarsRCool @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard I’ll pass on your evangelizing, thanks. Studying the scriptures thoroughly and honestly is how I ended up realizing it’s all bullshit.

@danjamin18 @JaguarsRCool @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard I love it. You have the scriptures open. Now read them. Pray about them. They contain truth and can give you communication from God. Joseph Smith was a prophet.

Have you ever paid attention to the symbols and hand gestures of the three figures in this section of Facsimile 2? Why would ancient Egyptians use all these Masonic ritual signs? They must have had a time machine.

@antiantimormon @JaguarsRCool @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard Glob damn you guys are morons. This just reinterprets clear, inconvenient documentary evidence as “symbolic coding” to try to protect the BoA’s historicity. Ad hoc rescue articles do nothing to save you. This is straight up garbage apologetics, not evidence.

I'm sorry to break your anti-Mormon testimony, but the Kirtland Egyptian Papers have NOTHING to do with a translation of the Book of Abraham. Most of the characters in the Grammar are NOT even egyptian. And the text of the coding of the characters don't all come from the Book of Abraham. They also come from the sacred sections of the Doctrine and covenants, the same ones that provide much of the foundation for temple worship. antiantimormon.com/kirtland-egypt…

@JaguarsRCool @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon False. This is why you clowns are laughed at for being completely dishonest. The verse very plainly refers back to Facsimile 1. The church even makes that clear.

@danjamin18 @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon Not only do we not have every scrap, but we also don't have the vast majority of what he had. The verse you quoted shows that the representation would be in a different spot than the record he was writing, so you can't claim they were copying the right source.

@JaguarsRCool @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon No we don’t have every scrap JS bought. Some were lost in the Chicago Fire. But we do have the exact fragments that include Fac 1 (which Abr 1:12 explicitly ties to the ‘record’), & the KEP where scribes copied characters from those same pieces directly next to the BoA text.

@danjamin18 @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon Do they have all the scrolls or not?

@JaguarsRCool @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon Lol Prove it’s the “historical record”. Provide the evidentiary scholarship.

@danjamin18 @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon It's the historical record. Not convenient for your cause, but the historical record nonetheless.

@JaguarsRCool @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon Only in Mormon Delululand would this brainrot be called facts. Ritner addressed these apologetics directly and thoroughly refuted them. Your level of cope gives me secondhand embarrassment.

@danjamin18 @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon Also known as facts

@edlars53 @JaguarsRCool @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon Yeah bro thinks Gee & Muhlestein are legit and there’s a missing long scroll. Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb.

@JaguarsRCool @danjamin18 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon LOL Gotta love Mormons. They are so gullible its funny.

@JaguarsRCool @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon This is Mormon apologetic brainrot. Y’all need to knock this bullshit off. It’s boring and fucking ridiculous.

@danjamin18 @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon Among these modern egyptologists are some that are not very modern, dead for 40 years or more. The rest hysterically claim the Book of Abraham can't be true because of their translation of it. But they never had the papyrus containing the book of Abraham to translate from...

@pimomormon In his version(s) I’m sure he was a brave boy. He didn’t run away, he destroyed you with the truth and then dusted his feet on his way out the door. Not a little bitch at all.

Respond and then block. What a 🤡

@JaguarsRCool @edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon Dr Robert Ritner, Dr Klaus Baer, Dr Richard Parker, Dr John A Wilson, & Dr Kara Cooney.

@edlars53 @YouSpooneeBard @antiantimormon Did you come up with something to back up your claim yet? Or are you just going to accuse me of lying? What modern egyptologists are you referring to?

@RandomRation @pimomormon Exactly. A good parent says either worship me or burn forever in a lake of fire and brimstone.

@pimomormon God COULD do everything Himself… but that isn’t what a good parent does. A good father teaches children responsibilities. He sets up rules for us to follow and asks us to participate. God is a God of law and order.

Mormons, let me get this straight 1) You believe your god is all powerful. 2) you believe that god requires people to be baptized for the dead for people who were not baptized. 3) until that work is done, dead people remain in spirit prison. Sounds to me like your god is weak

@LDSLaw You’re such a martyr. How brave.

This guy is an absolute loon. He must be on three psychiatric medication prescriptions.

@KevinNe77857066 @stackerco So you would deconstruct from Mormonism? I’m guessing at that point you wouldn’t be prioritize the new church’s truth claims, but rather if it has a community and religious framework you’d find acceptable.

@danjamin18 @stackerco I would keep going to a Church. Probably Catholic or Orthodox.

It’s a weird thing to step into a room of people full of all the same certainty. Where everyone says the same thing, believes the same thing, and “knows” it’s true despite most really not studying anything else. And nobody having curiosity about if they’re wrong or if there’s another way. It’s all true and they know it, or at least pretend to know it. Church is a weird space.

@KevinNe77857066 @stackerco Hypothetical: The Tanners learn about a document concealed in church vaults. It’s in JS’s handwriting, authenticated by experts. In it he reveals that he lied about everything. He explicitly states the BoM and church is a fraud. There is no doubt. Would it matter to you?

Is deconstruction the “wise” thing to do when it leads to such negative long term social/familial/mental health outcomes? I have had no issues learning about all these things. But I did so in a very balanced way and I tried to never overload myself with the negative point of view.

@KevinNe77857066 @stackerco You are practically the archetype of stacker’s point here. You demonstrate no true curiosity or understanding of those outside your tribe, and label contrary viewpoints as “doubting deconstructionist crap”. Most “wise old elders” have ZERO clue about the topics he discusses.

Why do you keep on insulting everyone’s intelligence by saying they don’t know anything??? Most established adult members of the church know the same stuff as you but yet they choose to keep their faith in the church and not complain and get offended about everything like you.😉 You should stop being so smart and learn something from your wise old elders who know way more than us arrogant 45 year olds.🤷‍♂️

@jonathanplumb You say it like he’s a different god than other Christians. Is that what you believe?

Everyone will eventually worship the God of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Everyone, without question.

@the_jake_bastow @RigdonNancy3 Your eisegesis is showing.

Thanks for the comment Nancy. Yes, President Smith did say this, but the way you might be trying to use it is missing some important context. When Joseph F. Smith said he looked forward to the day when the Church wouldn’t need to ask for additional donations, he wasn’t teaching that tithing itself would one day be done away. He was expressing a hope that, through the faithfulness of members, tithing alone would be sufficient - eliminating the need for extra financial appeals beyond it. At that time (early 1900s), the Church occasionally relied on special fundraising efforts in addition to tithing. His statement points toward a future where those additional requests wouldn’t be necessary - not a future where the principle of tithing disappears altogether. It’s also worth noting that in Latter-day Saint belief, tithing has never been framed as just a budgetary tool - it’s a standing commandment tied to faith, obedience, and personal discipleship, regardless of the Church’s financial position. So a more complete reading of the quote isn’t “the Church should stop tithing once it has enough money,” but rather: “the Church should become so established through faithful tithing that it no longer needs to ask for anything beyond it.” Context doesn’t weaken the quote - it actually clarifies what Joseph F. Smith was really hoping for.

How much in overall assets would the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints need before you personally stopped paying tithing?

@lil_boggy Mormons almost never know one iota about other Bible versions. This is how it usually presents.

If I had to read the NIV I'd hate God too

@sola_chad Lol bro thought he would cook atheists with this, but instead got weirdo Team Jesus Flerfers in the replies. 😂😂🤣🤣

The Orion spacecraft of the Artemis II Mission recorded this video. How can anyone see this and still think God doesn’t exist?
