This is Naked Mormonism.

I pledge my life all that I may have.

I will strive to the utmost of my ability to be what you would want me to be.

It's time to find the truth.

And having set our hand to the plow, we will never look back until this work is finished.

Where is the church going?

I have faith that the Constitution will be saved as prophesied by Joseph Smith.

But it will not be saved in Washington.

It will be saved by enlightened members of this church.

The explicit tag is there for a reason, so if you get offended at what's said, it's not for you.

But most importantly,

when you've pondered the truths you've heard, may they help you become even better than you were?

Skeptize everything.

Welcome to episode 55 of the Naked Mormonism podcast, the Serial Mormon History podcast.

Today is Thursday, June 22nd, 2017, and smelling of something delicious and comforting that your mom gives to you when you're sick is way better than reeking of tofu and broccoli sweats. On this week's episode, we jump into all of the work and frustration associated with building a city from a scratchy, bitey, blackwater swamp land.

Sickness, exposure, and simple lack of resources find Joe and friends in desperate need of

brokering whatever deal necessary to establish a new home for the thousands of homeless Mormon

refugees. We get to our newest introduction to the Namo nickname family, and Joe begins dictating his

own revised history to be published in the times and seasons, of course, in response to the recent uprising of the Spalding theory.

Later on, we'll be talking Dangerous American History with Professor CJ of the Dangerous History Podcast.

But first, let's wet our palate with some milk to prepare us for a proper helping of meat.
