Hmmm what politician might be aware of this???
I can at least count on the democrats to hunt down Mittens Romney, and other (R) party establishment scumbags if they anything to do with this shady deal.
Why did Mitt Romney choose Paul Ryan as his running mate?
Who was Mitt named after, the quarterback of the Racine Legion NFL team?
Who owned the Racine Legion NFL team?
Why did Paul Ryan suddenly resign from public office?
Where is Voree, Wisconsin?
What are the secrets of the Voree plates?
What is Strangite and what did James Strang claim to be?
What happened on Beaver Island in Lake Michigan?
What was the Second Great Awakening, in Finger Lakes?
What is the Book of Mormon really based on?
You can cram with a few simple searches.
Some of this information is readily available.
Voree is right between Racine, Wisconsin and Janesville, Wisconsin.
There is a place near me in Mormon road it is said that Brigham Young saw a vision of a temple in that field and that they built the little historic worship house there to memorialize the place. Said the area would be important. It’s by a vortex point on the lay lines. If you believe in that sort of thing.
Also, I’ve never met a Mormon I didn’t like, they are always good people.
I just looked at a map and the place you are speaking of Voree is the exact field I was speaking of. Weird that I should have been there out of curiosity
Strangites just came up in a wild thread on 4chan the other day:

tl;dr A Kennedy relative named George Skakel is on the board of Project Veritas. His father was convicted of murdering Martha Moxley but his conviction was later overturned. Martha's father John was Bob Doles senior advisor and previously worked for Lord Day and Lord which was apparently John Jacob Astors law firm long ago. The Skakels attorney Stephen Seeger has a brother that has helped get huge settlements for Pfizer.
In 1966 George Skakel, who was president of Great Lakes Carbon and Great Lakes Properties died in a suspicious plane crash. At his funeral the Skakel family requested that in lieu of flowers donations be made to the Strang Clinic in New York.
Strangely, Gitano "Tony" Bryant, a cousin of Kobe Bryant also ties into the murder of Martha Moxley who claimed that on the night of Moxleys murder "one of his friends wanted to rape her" but he did not come forward out of fear of being framed for Martha's murder. Kobe Bryant also died in a suspicious helicopter crash.
They work their way to heaven so tithing is strictly enforced.
No, it isn't. I'm LDS, and tithing has never once been enforced in any capacity.
What Is Tithing? | ComeUntoChrist - The Church of Jesus Christ of ... https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/comeuntochrist/article/what-is-tithing
The word tithe means “a tenth part.”. Tithing is a donation, or offering, of one-tenth of your income for the service of God. Since ancient times, God has commanded His people to give one-tenth of all they earn back to Him.
This commandment is still in effect today. Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints give one-tenth of their income back to God through His Church.
Congratulations, you've just defined tithing. Now that you've done that, where's the enforcement part? Where's the punishment for not paying tithing?
Tithing is optional; it is in no way enforced, it's entirely voluntary, and there's no form of "punishment" if you don't pay it. If you want to pay tithing, then great! More power to you. If you don't, then still great! No one comes up to you and says "Say, so and so, I've noticed that you haven't been paying your tithing... why not? I expect you to provide full back pay by next Sunday, or else..."
Just what do you think goes on?
Um, tithing settlement? Or whatever they call it now?
You cant go to the temple without paying tithing, and ordinances in the temple are needed for salvation.
Friend, it's all fake. I know it's hard to hear, but it's all fake. Look objectively at the church and its history and you will see (hopefully)
Thank you for your concern, but I have, in fact, looked deeper into my chosen faith. There is no church or religion on this planet that is sparkling white, but that's the thing about religion: you're not meant to worship men, including the people who lead the religion, nor are you meant to worship the church simply because it's a church. You follow the teachings of the church, and you live your life in the way that you believe brings you closer to God.
I worship God; I do not worship Joseph Smith, or Brigham Young, or Russell Nelson. While there may or may not be a distasteful history here or there, those events irrelevant to the teachings of the lord, so thank you, but I have my testimony in the Lord and in Christ, and the Holy Spirit.
They are also the only Group I have ever encountered that have said to never bad mouth other religions
A young woman I know was not allowed to Be baptized for others in the temple bc her parents fell on hard times and couldn’t give as much as they had been. This was told to me. Should I not believe it?
No I wouldn't believe that.
LDS church is crazy strict when it comes to finances, I imagine they will fight this the article says they believe followed the laws. No doubts they looked for any which way to avoid taxes, who wouldn’t? Look at how they go after anyone who isn’t one of them to try to get money out of them. Not Biden, not Abrams nope a church, Trump any conservative group or that members pay into and funds are used for something they don’t have their hands on. Very few of our leaders get salaries and are never exorbitant. Members donate the use of private planes for our Prophet and church leadership often. I don’t doubt there are bad people in the church, I don’t believe there is an org out there that can’t be infiltrated, on the whole I do believe most members and leaders truly believe they are doing good. My family wouldn’t have survived after my dad died if not for the church. The LDS church welfare system is probably the best setup in the world. The employment services top and so on and humanitarian are often first in to help after disaster. However I’m not naive to not notice that often times LDS businessman aren’t a little unethical now and again or members don’t try to take advantage of each other. Running jokes about never working on a church job because they try to be cheap. Well it comes down to they are cheap because they don’t believe it’s their money. Unlike politicians who are wasteful with taxpayer money, church leaders are extremely frugal with what they believe to be the money of Christ church- if that makes sense. Yeah they aren’t going to willfully give it to the government to be used to fund trans surgeries for dogs or whatever crazy things they might want. They definitely wouldn’t willingly do something illegal but yeah they’d try to be smart and avoid taxes absolutely. This is going to be interesting to watch!
Not many people know how much the LDS Church helps out in times of need and disasters. They do not realize the LDS church does alot and does not want credit or people to know about it. They do not believe in recognition for it
My best friends house burned down when I was in elementary school, they lost everything and we lived in a very small rural farming town. The LDS church was the first one to get them clothes and stuff they needed (this was in the 80’s). My dad died when I was 7 leaving my mom with 6 kids the youngest 2 mos old. He didn’t have life insurance and we were poor already as my dad had lost his job just before he died. When I didn’t have my own bed we were given solid wood bunk beds from Deseret. We often got food from Bishops storehouse and my mom would volunteer at the canning center to help in the way she could. I know a lot of people hate the church or think horrible things but there are so many times in my life I’ve been blessed by just knowing members of the church and I try to help others whenever I can in the same way.
Martha is correct about the good that the LDS church does through its charitable organizations, both locally and worldwide.
Many people have no idea that when there's a major disaster anywhere on the planet, often the LDS church is the first organization on the ground providing food, water, clothing, and shelter. By first on the ground, I mean that it is not uncommon for them to be there giving aid before the local government can get its act together.
The money isn't used to grow some huge religious empire the way many people seem to think. It's used to fund the growth of the church around the world through missionary work and the building of churches and temples for members to use, and also for huge amounts of charity work of all kinds all over the planet.
If people want to hate the LDS church, that's their right, and that's on them. But they should at least know the truth of what they're hating.
Anyone not concealing $$$ from the crooks in government is only funding their crime spree.
Do scientology next!!!!
Haha Mittens!
How the hell do you hide 32 billion?
Will this set a president? What about separation of church and state? Will they go after Catholic Church next?
