    Roasting Saints 29: The Mormon Memory Hole

    ** #133 Roasting Saints 29: The Mormon Memory Hole ** :: May I have a propaganda filter for my QR code scanner? :: Jones and Patience discuss Mormon news, the April 2026 General Conference, and respond to some "history" that the 29th episode of the LDS "Saints" podcast dragged in. :: QUOTE: :: When discussing the hypocrisy of Joseph Smith for calling his own adultery sacred, while the womanising of John C. Bennet was somehow grounds for excommunication. PATIENCE: That's a bit of "the pot calling the kettle black" isn't it! JONES: Ahhh, but the pot was also claiming that the chef said he could do whatever he wants! :: HIGHLIGHTS: :: Apparently the mainstream LDS church is now allowing women to be "president" of "sunday school" with caveats. Jones explained how when women get more power in the LDS heirarchy, it's never ultimately over a man. Because in Mormonism, men have "The Power of the Priesthood Penis People". Mormon Easter is 1 week away from regular Easter because General Conference is held during regular Easter. More on Queensland's rediculous new hate-speech legislation, and the amusing farnsy-flash-mob in King George Square. #Reasons to stay home this Sunday# - https://bookofboredom.com/reasons/ #Join the Blasphemy# - https://facebook.com/groups/BookOfBoredom #Patreon (Bonus Episodes)# - https://patreon.com/BookOfBoredom #Twitter# - https://twitter.com/BookOfBoredom #TikTok# - https://tiktok.com/@BookOfBoredomPodcast #Instagram# - https://instagram.com/BookOfBoredomPodcast #YouTube# - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMjDavWoT73Cev3IAie_XBA #Website# - https://bookofboredom.com/ A nice review on any podcast platform will help frustrate the Heavenly Father's boring plans for your future.

    Alma 14-15: Powercord

    ** #132 Alma 14-15: Powercord ** :: A slapstick comedy with an unfunny side of burnt wives. :: Patience and guest host Adrian discuss Australian politics, and read Alma 14-15. Recorded 21st March 2026. :: Discussions: :: Gigi's progress watching the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. It's so boring, she's not getting very far. New hate-speech law in Queensland that doesn't seem well thought out. How gun control in Australia got started after the Port Arthur massacre. The new gun buy-back scheme initiated by the Federal Government in response to the more recent Bondi massacre. :: Highlights from Alma 14-15: :: Smitty can't work out which characters in his story should be: burned alive, stoned (but not killed), crushed by a collapsing prison, or slapped on the cheek. Alma 14:29 contains a weird simile, so unnaturally hammered into place, that the next phrase re-explains it. "as a goat fleeth with her young from two lions". WTF? Zeezrom suffers a bout of extreme anxiety, yet the townsfolk are astonished when he leaps to his feet. #Reasons to stay home this Sunday# - https://bookofboredom.com/reasons/ #Join the Blasphemy# - https://facebook.com/groups/BookOfBoredom #Patreon (Bonus Episodes)# - https://patreon.com/BookOfBoredom #Twitter# - https://twitter.com/BookOfBoredom #TikTok# - https://tiktok.com/@BookOfBoredomPodcast #Instagram# - https://instagram.com/BookOfBoredomPodcast #YouTube# - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMjDavWoT73Cev3IAie_XBA #Website# - https://bookofboredom.com/ A nice review on any podcast platform will help frustrate the Heavenly Father's boring plans for your future.

    Roasting Saints 28: Don't worry, it's not for time.

    ** #131 Roasting Saints 28: Don't worry, it's not for time. ** :: At least for now! :: Divchina, Gigi and Patience listen and respond to some bonkers clips from the 28th episode of the LDS history podcast titled "Saints". :: Highlights: :: Learn how the "Relief Society" started, and how Joseph Smith twisted it his way. Discover how the Mormon secret-sacred-b******t temple rituals started. Then marvel at how the church deals with the rituals being modified Masonry by just admitting it in a smooth calm voice, with no explanation, like it's a totally reasonable thing. Joseph Smith had different kinds of plural wives. Learn about the palatable (adultery-less) kind of plural wife, which supposedly wasn't for this physical life on Earth (time), but rather for the after-life (eternity). Then marvel at how Joseph still gets something out of it now. Learn about a fundamental church concept: If you're not sure, pray and receive your own witness from God on the matter. Then marvel at how this un-coercive sounding principle has always been weaponised to result in leaders getting what they want. #Reasons to stay home this Sunday# - https://bookofboredom.com/reasons/ #Join the Blasphemy# - https://facebook.com/groups/BookOfBoredom #Patreon (Bonus Episodes)# - https://patreon.com/BookOfBoredom #Twitter# - https://twitter.com/BookOfBoredom #TikTok# - https://tiktok.com/@BookOfBoredomPodcast #Instagram# - https://instagram.com/BookOfBoredomPodcast #YouTube# - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMjDavWoT73Cev3IAie_XBA #Website# - https://bookofboredom.com/ A nice review on any podcast platform will help frustrate the Heavenly Father's boring plans for your future.

    Alma 12-13: Rock-Hard Hearts

    ** #130 Alma 12-13: Rock-Hard Hearts ** :: The Musical! :: :: LDS News Since Last Recording: :: False Prophet Russell Nelson died 27 Sep 2025. So feel free to spend less time in your local temple. Sadly, 4 humans were murdered in an attack on a Michigan ward building on 28 Sep 2025. LDS General Conference was on 3-5 Oct 2025. Fortunately, 0 humans died when a Sydney ward building caught fire on 6 Oct 2025. New False Prophet Dallin Harris Oaks announced on 14 Oct 2025. Expansions to Lancashire Temple announced on 16 Oct 2025. They want more room for youth activities. Seems like an attempt at "Build it and they will use it". But they're fighting against nature with this one. Evolution developed boredom to keep humans away from places where literally NOTHING of any REAL use happens. :: This podcast was recorded on 19th Oct 2025. :: :: Highlights from Alma 12-13: :: Sing-along to "Father Abraham paid many tithes". Joseph Smith gets stuck in "preamble" mode. Mormons love things "by proxy", and hate themselves. The Pants of Wrath! Sister Gigi tells us the correct way to wash blood out of garments. Sister Patience sings whole chunks of this horseshit out of sheer frustration. #Reasons to stay home this Sunday# - https://bookofboredom.com/reasons/ #Join the Blasphemy# - https://facebook.com/groups/BookOfBoredom #Patreon (Bonus Episodes)# - https://patreon.com/BookOfBoredom #Twitter# - https://twitter.com/BookOfBoredom #TikTok# - https://tiktok.com/@BookOfBoredomPodcast #Instagram# - https://instagram.com/BookOfBoredomPodcast #YouTube# - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMjDavWoT73Cev3IAie_XBA #Website# - https://bookofboredom.com/ A nice review on any podcast platform will help frustrate the Heavenly Father's boring plans for your future.

    Roasting Saints 27

    ** #129 Roasting Saints 27 ** :: People Ruin Everything :: Jones and Patience rip apart some "faith affirming stories" from episode 27 of the Saints podcast. :: Highlights: :: Orson Hyde pretends to be a Jewish patriarch and piles up some rocks in the Holy Land. Ben Godfrey gets over excited about the "amazing work" of Leslie Sherman and her team, as they sift through "hundreds" of sources. He asks Leslie what that process looked like using the story of Mary and John Davis as an example, and is informed there was only one source. Leslie corrects Ben Godfrey when he says John C. Bennet was elected to the county court, because he was appointed. Thomas Sharp calls Smitty out from his newspaper, and Joseph cancels his subscription to it... and tries to have the last word by attaching the most unintentionally hilarious silly prose. Including phrases such as: "the filthy sheet", "that tissue of lies" and "sink of iniquity". Leslie explains how they chose which of Joseph's plural wives to write about in Saints. The upshot is, there were so many, that you could categorise them. Then they picked the story with the best sources for each category of wife. :: Also discussed: :: Some True Believing Mormon women are having a difficult time shifting gears to the new clothing rules which finally allow them to show their shoulders. Politics J Wellington Wimpy from the Popeye comics. Creepy dolls. #Reasons to stay home this Sunday# - https://bookofboredom.com/reasons/ #Join the Blasphemy# - https://facebook.com/groups/BookOfBoredom #Patreon (Bonus Episodes)# - https://patreon.com/BookOfBoredom #Twitter# - https://twitter.com/BookOfBoredom #TikTok# - https://tiktok.com/@BookOfBoredomPodcast #Instagram# - https://instagram.com/BookOfBoredomPodcast #YouTube# - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMjDavWoT73Cev3IAie_XBA #Website# - https://bookofboredom.com/ A nice review on any podcast platform will help frustrate the Heavenly Father's boring plans for your future.

    Alma 11: Deconversion Brainworm

    ** #128 Alma 11: Deconversion Brainworm ** :: I'll see your SHUM and raise you an ONTI :: Gigi and Patience read Alma 11 from The Book of Mormon. It was pretty fun. The whole chapter is just so stupid. Smitty invents nomenclature for values of gold and silver and it all means nothing because we don't know how much a "measure of grain" is. It seems the only reason for this weak attempt at world-building was to explain the value of "six onties of silver" in Verse 22. This is where Judge Zeezrom tries to bribe Amulek. Or is it a purity test? Who knows! Was Joseph oxygen deprived inside his devining hat? Patience promised an algerbraic equation of Smitty's currency values. But it turns out, it's simpler than that! Several units have identical values, and everything is relative to that nebulous GRAIN MEASURE which is the only unknown, and we'll call it "g". :: Unique Units: :: LEAH = g/8 SHIBLUM = g/4 SHIBLON = g/2 GOLD ANTION = 3g/2 :: Duplicate Units: :: SILVER SENUM = GOLD SENINE = g GOLD SEON = SILVER AMNOR = 2g GOLD SHUM = SILVER EZROM = 4g GOLD LIMNAH = SILVER ONTI = 7g There is also some pretty bold and stupid doctrinal and eschatalogical statements in this chapter. In verse 39 Amulek even equates God the Father with the Son of God! Clearly the modern Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ignores this trinitarian doctrine from their own holy book. :: Other Discussions: :: Sister Gigi has been working with VC Defensa to help immigrants and their families impacted by the ICE crackdowns in California. Sister Patience blames socialism for being kicked out of her apartment for a year, and excessive immigration for why it's been so difficult getting a job. Ways of getting accurate news in a world of opinion shows and deep fakes. Sister Gigi doesn't understand why other people find Rachel Maddow so annoying. Sister Patience finds Rachel Maddow annoying, but struggles to explain why. Why do women send letters to dangerous men in jail AND fall in love with them? Is it the same mechanism that caused so many women to marry Joseph Smith? Could a cult be dismantled by separating the women from it? #Reasons to stay home this Sunday# - https://bookofboredom.com/reasons/ #Join the Blasphemy# - https://facebook.com/groups/BookOfBoredom #Patreon (Bonus Episodes)# - https://patreon.com/BookOfBoredom #Twitter# - https://twitter.com/BookOfBoredom #TikTok# - https://tiktok.com/@BookOfBoredomPodcast #Instagram# - https://instagram.com/BookOfBoredomPodcast #YouTube# - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMjDavWoT73Cev3IAie_XBA #Website# - https://bookofboredom.com/ A nice review on any podcast platform will help frustrate the Heavenly Father's boring plans for your future.

    Alma 10: Morgy

    ** #127 Alma 10: Morgy ** :: You gotta have food at the Morgy :: Alma 10 prompts Gigi to ask AI what a Mormon orgy would look like. Benjamin confirms that you definitely need food at an orgy. And Patience has her mind blown when she learns that shredded carrot can be put in jello to make a salad. Smitty gives lawyers a hard time in this chapter, so we have 2 lawyers-in-recovery to serve it back to him! Sister Gigi felt prompted by the Spirit to write a poem after learning what a morgy might look like: :: Morgy :: | This now lives | in my mind rent free | thanks a lot | Chat GPT. | | Things I cannot | now unsee. | Thanks a lot | Chat GPT. Upon hearing the episode before it's official release, Brother Jones commented: "Ferrets, not weasels. Acid, not mushrooms." If anyone wants the full story, it was episode "#074 Melting Room, Angry Ferrets" where we read the only chapter of Omni. https://bookofboredom.com/episodes/2022-06-09/ Also, if anyone else is just like Sister Gigi and wants to know more about Brother Benjamin's life, go check out the podcast he does with his friend Lauren that we briefly referenced. It's called "The Examined Lives (ENM Vibes)" podcast. Mormonism comes up frequently during the first season of it. https://pod.link/1767688018 #Reasons to stay home this Sunday# - https://bookofboredom.com/reasons/ #Join the Blasphemy# - https://facebook.com/groups/BookOfBoredom #Patreon (Bonus Episodes)# - https://patreon.com/BookOfBoredom #Twitter# - https://twitter.com/BookOfBoredom #TikTok# - https://tiktok.com/@BookOfBoredomPodcast #Instagram# - https://instagram.com/BookOfBoredomPodcast #YouTube# - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMjDavWoT73Cev3IAie_XBA #Website# - https://bookofboredom.com/ A nice review on any podcast platform will help frustrate the Heavenly Father's boring plans for your future.
