This is a place for dialogue about 'Christians vs Pharisees: Choosing sides and how to fight for them in the Mormon Civil War' and other collaborations like 'The Loyal Opposition' where Peter Bleakley has teamed up with Nemo the Mormon. At current rates of decline in active membership the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will functionally cease to exist in Europe, most of the rest of the world and several regions of the USA in the next 10-15 years, so radical reforms need to happen now if it is to survive, and it may already too late. The vast majority of members have already left the Church globally, including 80% of the young people raised in it, and recently leaked data has revealed that in my homeland of the UK and the Republic of Ireland we are down to less than 15% of our members active and it is falling fast. The stats across the rest of Europe are similar. I will be discussing not only what the General Authorities and local leaders and members have to stop doing and saying to choose Christian Mormonism instead of Pharisee Mormonism (and stop trying to teach and practice both at once and failing), but also the positive changes that need to happen radically and fast to have this amazing religion with so much positive potential survive and thrive in the real world of the 21st Century. What do you think it will take?

    MORMON CIVIL WAR EPISODE 13 - CRAZY GENERAL CONFERENCE PREDICTIONS WITH LATTER-DAILY DIGEST

    With April 2024 General Conference looming in a few days, the Church haemorrhaging members and facing extinction in the coming decade, and a First Presidency in their 90’s and on their very last legs, how about a different kind of General Conference Predictions show? Rather than being hopeful but realistic in our predictions for what the General Authorities will actually announce from their velvet thrones, what if we predicted everything they actually NEED to announce and change to save the C...

    MORMON CIVIL WAR EPISODE 11C - TAKE BACK CONTROL! THE SHARED ETERNAL CORE OF THE GENERAL AUTHORITIES AND THE PSEUDOSCIENTIFIC LOONBATS

    What if there was a General Conference of the leading LDS Loonbats selling dangerous brutal parenting, energy healing mumbo jumbo, porn addiction paranoia, anti-science propaganda, child rescuing fraud with celebrity donors, thought-stopping Blind Faith and end time prepper visions of imminent apocalypse? All curated by notorious ‘Visions of Glory’ Mentor-To-The-Maniacs Thom Harrison… with a General Authority thrown in? Well, there was! Find out what they said before it was ...

    MORMON CIVIL WAR EPISODE 11B - TAKE BACK CONTROL! DEMOCRACY IS THE WAY, NOT TIM BALLARD, END TIME PREPPERS, MURDEROUS MOMMY BLOGGERS OR THE APOSTLES WHO MADE THEM ALL INEVITABLE

    As I continue to map out a pathway for radically reforming the LDS Church to avoid its imminent self-destruction that is already authorised by its scriptures and written constitution, things just got wild! This episode will begin to guide you through the astonishing parade of scammers and lunatics with their own visions for the rescue and future of the Church who have been infiltrating every level of the religious and political hierarchy and the wider culture in Mormonland... with headline-gr...

    MCW 12 Christians v Pharisees: Choosing Sides And How To Fight For Them In The Mormon Civil War EPISODE 12 - POLYGAMY WARS! WHEN APOLOGISTS ATTACK

    The 11A 'Take Back Control' miniseries will resume soon, but here is a special treat. Maven crossed the world to join me in the Sceptred Isles and review an extraordinary and rare encounter in Online Mormon World. Brian Hales, regarded as the leading expert on Joseph Smith's Polygamy having published a trilogy about it, went on Michelle Stone's podcast '132 Problems: Revisiting Mormon Polygamy' podcast which is the flagship voice for a growing movement of Latter-day Saints w...

    As the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints falls into its final self-inflicted spiral to destruction here in the UK, around the world, and even in its American heartlands, it's time to get real. After 5 years of exploring the causes and solutions for this crisis, in this miniseries I will make the strongest case I can for what has gone wrong and how we have to bring about significant regime change at the General Authority level to have any hope of the Church surviving, or deserv...

    CvP 10G Christians v Pharisees: Choosing Sides And How To Fight For Them In The Mormon Civil War EPISODE 10G - FOUNDATIONS OF THE RESTORATION OF RACISM

    As we conclude the Bradgate Episodes 10 series things get truly crazy. Imagine if despite the Church officially disavowing all racism in and out of the Church, past and present, in its 2012 statement and 2013 Race and the Priesthood Gospel Topics Essay, and everything President Nelson has been saying to the Mormons and the NAACP about moving on from every trace of the Church's racist past, and Brad Wilcox being vilified and appearing to be publicly corrected by Ahmad Corbitt, his black fellow...
