OH! Thank-you. I was just getting ready 2 comment. If anyone is listening or reads this, please ditch the music. The music overshadows the dialogue. If you absolutely must have music, please try Bach, Chopin or Mozart. It is less intrusive & softer.
You gotta love how the narration barely squeaks through the extra tense, melodramatic background music. I had just been saying how badly I needed a nice, solid hour of straining to hear a voice w/ the power of a mouse urinating on a cotton ball underneath nearly constant, thunderously loud horns & kettle drums. It’s not every day you get to experience the absolute pinnacle of sound editing. And who WOULDN’T happily endure such in order to savor the privilege of a comprehensive deep dive into the brilliant history & theology behind the Moronmon Church-all I ask is that you please, PLEASE just keep churnin out such magnificent content!
Great documentary other than the fact you can’t hear the narrator 1/2 of the time due to the obnoxious music over powering him and loosing what he said or having your ears bleeding from turning the volume up so loud you can hear him faintly.
For a unique experience turn the volume down on your TV, phone, or tablet so you can just about hear the music and as for the guy trying to tell us whats going on well he's completely out of the documentary. Take in the great 420p visuals, relax too the music, and make up your own history of mormonism.
UR of the Chaldees (some 25- 30,000 yrs ago) OUT. OF. WHICH. God. called. Abram. believed in THREE HEAVENS (essential doctrine of Mormonism); They also practiced extensive polygamy (HAREEM/HAREM); ETERNAL SEX (innumerable VIRGINS for the .males); SEX. IS. EVERYTHING. DYNASTY is the game. "Patriarchy" is its name. Benefits the male of species; Yet, what happens to "spiritual children" born male? Only the Patriarch male is the permitted progenitor of the HIVE. Other males are eventually turned out of "the kingdom". Or made eunuch drones. [And Mormon Jesus is always portrayed as a HUNKY. S.T.U.D.] No "meek and lowly allowed", tho' all have to kowtow the PRESIDENT (another Chaldees office. Many such U.S. gov'mt terms are derived from Chaldees. The term ChalDEAN refers to people who came to occupy that area much later c. 1300 B.C. - 1200 B C. and who were present at time of Hebrews' EXILE.
Joseph Smith loved to read about Captain Kidd, and his exploits on the islands of Cumorah and it's main city Moroni !!!! That's why he named the hill near his home, Cumorah and invented the angel Moroni !!!
They are ridiculous, but no matter how ridiculous they are it doesn't matter because they just found a way that makes them feel that they are important. And that's all it matters to them
Its crazy, but ringbinders are actually very old. The oldest that was found is 2000 years old. The modern ringbinder only got patented in 1859, decades after his find.
Anachronisms in the Book of Mormon: The Book of Mormon is full of anachronisms, which is when a person takes an idea from their own time and inserts it in a past time in which it never actually existed. It would be as if a Civil War book talked about how Lincoln gave a televised address to America, when of course we know there were no TVs during his lifetime. That alone would be proof that the Civil War book could not have happened as written, and the Book of Mormon suffers from this problem throughout: Deutero-Isaiah: As discussed above, the inclusion of Deutero-Isaiah in the Book of Mormon is a massive anachronism. There is no way that these passages could have been included on the gold plates since they were written after the exodus from Jerusalem. Joseph Smith did not know this when writing the Book of Mormon, which is why he took freely from Isaiah as a whole. Cattle/Sheep/Goats: "And also all manner of cattle, of oxen, and cows, and of sheep, and of swine, and of goats, and also many other kinds of animals which were useful for the food of man." (Ether 9:18) While the Book of Mormon claims that animals were domesticated for food as in Joseph Smith's time, even FAIR considers this anachronism correct. They loan shift cattle to buffalo, sheep to mountain sheep, and that goats could've been deer, but the reality is that these animals were not introduced to America until Columbus got here. Honey Bees: "did also carry with them deseret, which, by interpretation, is a honey bee; and thus they did carry with them swarms of bees." (Ether 2:3) FAIR gives the following explanation: "The Book of Mormon does not state that the Jaredites brought honeybees across the ocean. It says that they brought them to the coast of the Old World. The Maya codex Tro-Cortesianus, which predates the arrival of the Spaniards, shows drawings of bees and parts of honey combs." They want you to believe both that the Book of Mormon never explicitly says honey bees were brought while also telling us that there are drawings of bee parts so either way they're covered. That's peak apologetics right there. Of course what FAIR doesn't note is that the earliest honey bee fossils date back 14 million years, which is over 13 million years before Mormon doctrine allows for life to exist. Swords/Metalworking: "And I did teach my people to build buildings, and to work in all manner of wood, and of iron, and of copper, and of brass, and of steel, and of gold, and of silver, and of precious ores, which were in great abundance." (2 Nephi 5:15) This is one of the most egregious anachronisms, because we are told they used these weapons for battles that numbered in the hundreds of thousands. In order to create such metalworking, you would have evidence of forges, old stockpiles of materials, etc. It simply did not happen, even though FAIR tells us that steel doesn't actually mean steel. FAIR states: "The author assumes that "steel" refers to modern steel, which did not exist in pre-Columbian America. Steel has been found in the Old World in the appropriate time period." The problem is that it did not exist in the Americas. A lot of things existed in the Old World that were not in the New World - that's actually the point of pointing out the anachronisms that Joseph made based on what he was familiar with from his time-frame. That includes both things around him physically, as well as things that he read about int he Bible, which we know he heavily referenced/borrowed from for the Book of Mormon. Take note that the few examples that FAIR states for metalworking are from the Old World - no one is arguing that particularly because there is evidence it happened in the Old World. What we are arguing is that Joseph Smith used metalworking in the New World because he was familiar with it, yet there is not a single shred of proof of its existence in the New World even though hundreds of thousands of people battled with swords, helmets, shields, etc. Horses/Chariots: "Now when Lamoni had heard this he caused that his servants should make ready his horses and his chariots." (Alma 20:6) This is a technology that would have revolutionized the population and would have been passed down from generation to generation, yet there is zero evidence it happened. FAIR admits this is correct, even though they try to downplay the idea by stating chariots are not mentioned often. Bottom line is that this is an anachronism that Joseph Smith would have assumed would've been used when going to battle, and thus it ended up in the Book of Mormon. The most obvious answer is usually the correct one. There are many other anachronisms including wheat, silk, oxen, swine, coins, and wheels as well in the Book of Mormon. As is a common theme in these different subjects, Joseph Smith freely used from concepts and sources that were available in his lifetime. The fact that anachronisms are scattered in the Book of Mormon therefore is not surprising, but another knock against his credibility as a prophet of God. It also needs to be noted again that the history tells us that the Book of Mormon has a tight translation. The fact that these anachronisms exist can only be excused under a loose translation, but that is not what the history tells us. While anachronisms by themselves might not be the smoking gun, in combination with what we know about the history of the translation as well as the King James issues, they are another insight into the problems with the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith's credibility as a prophet of God.
The reason the music overpowers the narration is because the video is preparing you for when you do meet a Mormon, they are going to drown you out of any opinion you might have that doesn't go with theirs.
I was thinking along the same line. There are numerous complaints that date back @ least a year & they have yet to rectify the problem by either fixing it or taking the video down. This imply's (to me) they have difficulty acknowledging a mistake.
the background music is disturbing....its so loud...until now, April 9, 2020 at the height of the pandemic covid19 this has yet to be fixed, or it might have been done deliberately for some reasons......GOD SAVE THE WORLD!!!
Good film, just the music a little too low… but seriously now, it’s a documentary not a musical! Luckily it has subtitles, otherwise I wouldn’t hear sh*t
I too am puzzled by the strange music being mixed at a high level, which calls attention to itself, but what bothers me more is that the producers single out many of the wrong points. For example, Polygamy has not been a part of the church for over a century. People are not attracted to this faith because of polygamy. They are attracted because it is a different type of Christian Faith that they have always longed for.
That closing statement at 43:28 "are you really Christian?" is not a question of are you like me, but a question of do you really follow what Christ said?
Did you actually believe Joseph Smith was given a visit by the angel? A revelation to be polygamous? A pedophile and including it in his religion to be legitimate. This cult leader makes me puke
@@ShenZA6 I know that you're replying to the other commenter, but yes. For the longest time I did. As it is, I was baptized when I was a little kid, and you know impressionable kids are. I don't believe it anymore now that I know the darker roots of the religion.
make no mistake about it the entire Mormon faith is based on the imagination of a teenager who said he found gold plates nobody can or could see and these magic rocks in a hat no one can see lmfao !!!!!!!
No the question "are you really Christians?" does not have to do with trustworthiness...but actually with the facts and definitions of what TRUE Christianity is and WHO JESUS Christ really is... the question is...does Mormons have any understanding of Jesus Christ and His teachings, that is any understanding of the 4 Gospel Matthew, Mark, Luke and John...and please note that there are ample evidence that the gospels are historically accurate and trustworthy. If Mormons read the words of Christ Himself, they would not be able to stay Mormons
I went less active to raise my son. I met his mother outside church. I knew he would become Mormon. He was baptized into the church last year. He didn't know I'm a born member. I went to his baptism with my mother, and there is no picture of Joseph getting baptized? No pictures of Jesus? . I'm a 3rd generation Mormon. I couldn't understand till I looked around and saw all the new converts. . I was the only true born Mormon there. What I noticed, is people think use true born members are Freemason's. No! Joseph would not kneel on a dead body to become a full member. . Joseph gave a description of Jesus and His father. The converts took it down. . I grew up with a Young, one of Josephs grandsons, and a Bingham. Hi Bingham🤦 From Sunbeam , To CTR, To Ironic's Cub, to Bear, to Wolf, to Webelo, To BSA. . Brigham was the gun fighter. It was all staged. Joseph didn't allow murder. So Brigham, came up with an idea.. A couple of the high priests played the gun fighter.
I used to watch the HBO series Big Love about modern Mormons who still secretly practice polygamy. The writers clearly did their research. The pageant in Camorah, temple recommends etc. Very interesting.
DID any of these "prophets" EVER READ THE ACTUAL BIBLE including THE TEACHINGS OF JESUS CHRIST, THE ONLY WAY TO THE FATHER, SUCH A SAD DECEPTION!!! Beautiful people xxx
The TRUE Christians are the ones who believe that there is ONLY one Church founded by Jesus, who left Peter, the FIRST Pope in charge of this UNIVERSAL Faith. Peter or the Pope holds the KEYS of the KINGDOM of God, Matthew 16:13-20, false Christians are not in the book of life, Jesus' flock or sheep. JUDGEMENT day in Matthew 25:31-46. Also the TRUE Christians should attend at least ONE HOLY Mass and pray the Holy Rosary to be considered part of the BODY of Jesus Christ.
The Missionary Training Center is like Mormon boot camp. 'Fruit camp.' Heh, heh. 41:50 All teasing aside, it sounds wonderful to carry on a legacy of warmth and togetherness. I would argue, though, that we don't need any religion to do that, and that we actually gain a more profound compassion when we base it in a bold understanding of reality. People should truly digest what science tells us about our place in the vast, perhaps infinite and eternal, cosmos. Accepting our own finiteness and shared evolutionary history could lead us to feel that warmth and togetherness with all other members of the human race, even all other living things, who all got here the same way and will meet the same fate.
It's clear that Mormons do not know the words of Jesus Christ Himself, strange that the name it the Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints, but they do not know Him or His words...
THIS AUDIO IS ABSURD!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS ENTIRE PRODUCTION IS TRASH BECAUSE OF BEYOND AWFUL AUDIO. F OMGOSH MAN FREAKIN WOW. SO FRUSTRATED RIGHT NOW
