Look at the
list below and ask yourself, would any rational man join
a church that..
...women
held all priesthood leadership positions, including Prophet,
Apostles, Stake Presidents and Bishops etc...
...God
was a woman and any mention of Father in Heaven was forbidden
...only
women were allowed to speak for God
...under
no circumstance could a man hold a position of authority
over a woman
...only
women could perform church ordinances - i.e. pass the
sacrament, perform baptisms or bless their own children
...in
the temple women covenanted to obey Mother in Heaven but
the men covenanted to obey their wives
...the
fundamental narrative upon which the entire religion were
based had a man obeying Satan to eat the forbidden fruit
first, which would explain why men are so subservient
to women
...men
were told time and again in General Conference from their
all-female leaders that their main purpose was to be submissive
to their wives
...at
age 12 the girls got the priesthood with subsequent advancement
during the teen years. But the boys got nothing but a
"Manhood Medallion"
...the
only men's group in the church called the "Relief
Society" was really run by the women apostles who
made all the real decisions, controlled the budget and
provided all the curriculum
...the
church had a history of treating men like mindless property.
Its founding leaders taught that God commanded that one
woman should have plural husbands that lived by themselves
and had to share the one wife with other men.
...the
church founder (a woman) had over 30 secret husbands.
Some of them were pre-pubescent boys she emotionally blackmailed
into secret sex. Some were happily-married men who she
told had to marry her in order to save their families.
...the
church's scriptures (D&C 132) contained a revelation
by the church founder (a woman) that has Heavenly Mother
saying she gives young virgin men to the founder and her
husband must accept it or suffer destruction and eternal
damnation
...the
Book of Mormon had only four pathetic references to men
but the whole rest of this "divinely inspired"
book was about women
...women
frequently gave men priesthood blessings of counsel, pretending
to speak in the name of Heavenly Mother commanding them
to obey their wives and "be faithful"
...the
most precious thing a man could give his wife were his
virginity/virtue
...men
who had lost their virginity before marriage were called
"used cars"
...single
men were told that they could only be exalted if their
wives called upon them for exaltation
...in
the next life a woman could have as many husbands as she
wanted while the husband could only have one wife
...the
men were expected to take mini classes on how to change
toilet flappers, sharpen lawn mower blades, or fix fences
while the women met to discuss leadership doctrine
...a
man who had a huge business empire and a great education
was only allowed to be in charge of other men or children...never
women...in church
..men
wondered what their wife's temple names might be
Would
any man in his right mind join such a church?
