@_btcole@TSCannon96@q_3st This is the only link I’m gonna take the time sharing. I’m not saying EVERYTHING Mormons have made were taken from the Masons, but A LOT of things were…

@TSCannon96@q_3st All it takes is some google searches, I doubt I’m gonna change your mind, and you’re not gonna change mine so I’m not gonna take the time to send links. So just do some self research, and maybe not from LDS sources.
@TSCannon96@q_3st It’s written in the Bible that he was. Hence the “washing his hands”
Jesus didn’t actually commit any crimes in the eyes of Rome, which is why he was given a chance for freedom.
@_btcole@TSCannon96@q_3st Dude like all of the “temple rituals” or whatever are literally shared with Free Masonry, which Joseph Smith was apart of, and I guarantee the rituals didn’t come until AFTER he experienced them in masonry.
@TSCannon96@q_3st It was the Pharisees that got him killed. They used the Romans to carry out the punishment. The people of Jerusalem had the chance to spare him, but they chose to spare Barabbas instead. Pontius Pilot was disgusted and his washed his hands of the situation.
@TSCannon96@q_3st You really like equating Joseph Smith to Jesus… almost like… y’all worship him or something….
Regardless of your attempts to mock, The Book of Mormon is fiction, literally nothing that happens in it can be proven to be true.
@TSCannon96@q_3st And in the end, Smith met his end when he tried to suppress free speech and angered the wrong people. He’s not a martyr but a power hungry con man.
Though unfortunately the tyranny of the religion continued even after Smith died.
@TSCannon96@q_3st The only reason the Book of Mormon gained ground was because at the time, the early 1800s, nothing written in it could be disproven. However, nowadays like literally everything in the Book of Mormon can be picked apart.
USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving.
Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free.
I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these."
"They just come with the table, man."
They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner.
This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat.
I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared.
"Did we…?"
"Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless."
Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined.
My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude."
Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man.
I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy.
Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived.
I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most.
Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.
Anakin is much better in Clone Wars than the movies by MILES, so the obvious answer is the clones. Dee Bradley Baker is great, but Tem’s voice is so iconic that I often find myself missing it when I watch TCW.
Run a pole, who was done worse by tcw. anakin not looking sounding or acting like Haden. Or the clones not looking sounding or having the same skin color as Tem.
