    This Viral Ex-Mormon Interview Spreads INSANE Misinformation

    Is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints A Cult? Is it Transphobic? Does it protect child molesters? Beau Oyler is a former Latter-day Saint who recently went on ‪@SoftWhiteUnderbelly‬  a channel with almost 7 million subscribers. I think this interview is a case study in the sort of story telling interviews ex mormons often give and why they so often can be deeply problematic.

    When your Argument Against the Book of Mormon BACKFIRES

    The other day Joe Heschmeyer ‪released a video critiquing arguments made for the Book of Mormon by comparing similar arguments made for the Koran. But does Joe have a point? Are the arguments for the Book of Mormon no better than arguments for the Koran? My friend Luke Hanson from Ward Radio sent me over some of his thoughts, and frankly, I think after watching this you will see how Joes argument backfires big time.  DEBATE TICKETS: www.ThoughtfulFaith.Org or  https://www.eventbrite.com/e/live-deb...

    My Reaction To The Most Viral Ex-Mormon Video of All Time | Ft. Johnny Harris

    So the other day I decided I wanted to watch the most popular video on YouTube critical of the church. And what came up in the results was a video by Johnny Harris.

    So I recently have started doing what are called spaces on X. These are a new way to do Audio only livestreams that basically are like a radio show where anyone on x call in and talk. I recently did one while on a long drive and the subject of original sin came up… let’s just say it was interesting to say the least.
