Before The Crows Nest

6. Why is the Atonement Necessary? (Anti-mormon Literature, Chapter Three)


Listen Later

I often wondered why it was that Christ had to undertake such unhinged brutality to save us. Why and how is there no other way? Oddly enough, upon deconstructing the immoral worldview behind the Atonement I discovered the hidden secret to the future of Latter-day Saintism. The key to Heavenly Mother, women in the priesthood, and Eternal LGBTQIA families is already set forth. It also holds the answer to why criticizing church leaders is a bad idea for faithful members. Though those particulars are not discussed directly within this chapter it is the same as the answer to the necessity of the atonement.
