Mormonism...

...Live!

Shut up and sit down!

0:30.0

Good evening, everybody. How are you doing? How are you, Bill Real? Well, RFM. I'll tell you this much.

0:54.0

I think we proved that Joseph Smith was the originator of polygamy. Well, I wanted to follow up with you on that. But first off, for our audience and those who may not have been with us last week at this time, what are you referring, my friend?

1:07.0

We, two weeks ago, we were given a caller that didn't believe in Joseph Smith being the originator of polygamy.

1:15.0

And I took that as a challenge and so, over the next week, we put an episode together and...

1:21.0

Sorry, I got like a nap flying around in here. If I kill him, I could bring him back to life by giving him a priesthood blessing.

1:28.0

Yeah, we ended up doing an episode last week where we put up, I think, the greatest of historical documents, contemporaneous to Joseph Smith being alive there at the end and showing that he was, in fact,

1:44.0

the mastermind behind section 132, the practice of plural marriage. And I'll use my favorite word. We demonstrably showed that Joseph Smith is also the author of all the unhealthy behavior towards these women in Navu.

2:01.0

It certainly seems that way to me. But can you tell our audience what's been going on since then, because I understand that that episode has caused a bit of a ripple throughout the blogger knackle.

2:12.0

Yeah, so in, for instance, the Facebook group Hemlock Knots, I don't know what that's about.

2:18.0

You don't know what that means. I have no idea. Tell me.

2:21.0

Well, it's based on it saying by Joseph Smith talking about how hard it is to get new doctrines and new ideas into the heads of these, these chuckle-headed Latter-day Saints.

2:30.0

Remember, it's like taking a wedge to a pumpkin or something to a hemlock knot. I presume that that's where it's coming from. I'm sure it is.

2:39.0

So in these groups that are polygamy deniers, they are battling back and forth, trying to, I guess, come up with explanations for the things that we showed last week. And I really thought we tied together super well.

2:54.0

The Naboo High Council Section 132 and the Naboo City Council minutes and what those three things mean, plus the land deeds and the affidavits from Leonard Sobhi and lots of other cool people.

3:07.0

But essentially, there's now we've laid out the argument and we welcome somebody coming on and discussing their side if they'll be willing to handle, I think, logical, rational questions about how they deal with the evidence we presented.

3:20.0

So are they lining up around the block to come on the show?

3:23.0

Sometimes they say they will and then they sort of back out. And so I'm still waiting for somebody to want to sit down with us for a few hours and let us ask four or five, I think, really good questions and see how they reconcile that.

3:37.0

But anyway, we've got, we've got a great scholar on tonight.
