Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

I think organized religion is always a risk for causing trouble, but this Mormon God's flexibility is exactly the kind of anti-extremist leadership I'd like to see more of if we are going to keep doing the religion thing. Now if only he would get cool with beer and coffee.

The funny part is that Mormon god was only flexible when it suited Joseph Smith.

I mean, it's kinda oddly coincidental that God spoke to JS and told him that polygamy was ok right after his wife told him she was furiously against it, don't you think?

Honey, that was God, he just called and said it's totally OK for me to be into both you AND your sister. He said you really should chill about it.

Extremist anti-religion is way better. Then we won't have to compromise on weak-ass beer too.
