Senator Mike Lee: Trump's another Captain Moroni!

This is for encouragement, ideas, and support for people going through a faith transition no matter where you hope to end up. This is also the place to laugh, cry, and love together.

Lee was suffering from COVID-19 at the time and his rectal injections of bleach, taken as part of Trump's recommended cure, probably caused his confusion between King Noah and Captain Moroni. Apparently, King Noah was an apt comparison to Trump.

Thanks to the bleach, Sen. Lee reports that his insides are more pure and delightsome.
Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

Kevin Christiansen from MD&D put it well:
Having read the Book of Mormon, and Nibley's essay on Freeman and Kingman in the Book of Mormon, I missed the parts of the story where Captain Moroni paid off mistresses, separated children from refugee parents as deterrent, hired corrupt and ignorant people to undermine the government, flattered and schmoozed tyrants, stacked the courts, deregulated environmental and financial protections, sought to gut healthcare, refused to personally go down to battle himself (bone spur deferments), denigrated science, undermined relationships with close allies, cut both taxes and accountability for the rich, demonized immigrants and refugees, pressured Ukraine to provide smears of his legitimate political opponents, had his science office declare victory over a pandemic at the same time that infections set new record highs and leading all nations in deaths by a shocking margin, demonstrating in every divisive superspreader rally that he cares nothing for the blood of his people, and lied constantly and shamelessly.

I think the Church needs to speak up before Lee requests that Trump be placed alongside the Christus statue in the Visitor's Center.
Same rhetoric and narrative that we've heard for the last 4 years. Which is exactly why Sen. Lee compared Trump to Moroni. He is a lone man fighting for freedom against the far left press and politicians who don't stand for America anymore. Agree or not you have to give Lee points for being creative.

Nah. All Mike Lee did was drink the kool-aid and get people to vote for him. Is that really all that creative?

However, he was the first to speak about the Trump/Moroni similarities. I see your point. ;)
God is Love. God is Truth. The greatest problem with organized religion is that the organization becomes god, rather than a means of serving God.
