When looking her up on Amazon for the book link, I see that she has written other books, too. Priestcraft, anyone?

Arguably, she already did. It's the "Not Even Once Club" and it covers some of the things the Sister President Wendy finds distasteful in a righteous Mormon. But there are lots more and this thread is covering one.

She's also the author of this terribly misguided children's book.

Love how it is all denied yet the The Not Even Once Club is a childrens book by Wendy Nelson about excluding kids from the club who do do exactly as you do. https://www.amazon.com/Not-Even-Once-Club/dp/1609073371

Wow

Mormonism requires more moral relativism than I'm willing to give to anything. As an adult, rational analysis gets the highest weighting in my mind, and won out over the childhood indoctrination I received as a child. I wish I would have started without a belief in magic.

The ideas that Smith said were required for exaltation, such as the followers giving him their wives and young daughters, is repeated in the cults of Koresh, Bent, and Jones. The faithful want to blunt the razor sharp edges of his plain meanings. They want to avoid comparison with other bad actors, including Warren Jeffs.

> that there is about the gospel of Jesus Christ and his church.

If I were a Christian, then I would wonder why my church had disavowed Matthew 19:14 and Matthew 11:28. I would wonder if the boy-faced prophet was all he claimed to be, and whether Matthew 7 provided a prescient warning. I would wonder why fast offering money has to go to Salt Lake first, and why they owned a god-damned mall. Yes, but despite all of that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?

My understanding of Christianity is that every tongue will confess and they will win the religious war. Mormonism tried to take over the point and standard bearer with a claim of a magical restoration. The NOMs would let the basic claims fall by the wayside, and the founder appears less and less innocent with every rock that is overturned and publicly admitted to. If I were a believer in Christianity, then I see that the liberal churches where "shades of gray" are allowable without excommunication offer a much safer worship environment. Where freethought is cherished, and litmus tests to prove worthiness are absent. Mormonism is a new Abrahamic religion and a throwback to excessive rule keeping. There is no room for error. The message to the children (and adults alike) is that perfection is possible, and being a member of the Not even once club is best of all.

Wow. Sounds like your dad is part of the Not even once club


So much for unconditional love. Wishing you guys the best.

The Mormon prophet's wife wrote a book that teaches kids that they're bad if they sin even one time.
