Brandon Sanderson is a Mormon and is a professor at BYU. I interpret his works as Mormon fanfiction.

He's pretty good at worldbuilding, too. And so far his worlds are actual spherical planets.

This makes the end of The Wheel of Time make more sense.

Asking is good faith, been some years since i read wot. What part of morminism made it into those last books?

Dont get me wrong, what a lot of us see as "prudish" shows up in his writing, but ive only noticed it in his stuff, not the wot ending.

Mormonism and BYU need to be abolished.

Whats BYU? Also, dont get me wrong morminism like wow, how could anyone today believe it? But on the other hand, my main one, calling for the ablosihment of a religion is , uhhh, a little trumpey if you ask me.

Brigham Young University, a place so dedicated to education that they censor genitals in anatomy textbooks.

I’m not calling for the Mormon religion itself to be abolished, I’m calling for the organization itself to be abolished. The difference between Catholicism and the Catholic Church, let’s say.

Trumpy is a funny word though!
