Mormons. We're talking about Mormons today. The Summer School series on Cults rolls on with Day 3 covering one of the most reconizable cults out there, what is commonly referred to as Mormons. In the episode, I walk through a brief history of the Mormon Church proper, talk a little bit about some of the differences between other smaller Mormon groups, and highlight some of the major teachings in the church that differ from Protestant Christianity. I also propose a an interesting question, "How long does a cult need to exist and how large does it need to be before it is no longer recognized as a cult but just as another religion?" I also take some time to reflect on the beauty that is simple, true Christianity.

Our show focuses around our favorite fandoms that we discuss from a Christian perspective. We do not try to put Jesus into all our favorite stories, but rather we try to ask the questions the IPs are asking, then addressing those questions from our perspective. We are not all ordained, but we are the Priests to the Geeks, in the sense that we try to serve as mediators between the cultures around our favorite fandoms and our faith communities.

Who are the Witnesses of the WMC?

As our Summer School series on Cults continues, I am once again joined by author Christian Ashley of the Let Nothing Move You podcast to discuss a time when he was approached by followers of Mother God. Christian and I discuss the complicated history of the Church of God in South Korea before it was relaunced into the WMC. We breakdown some of their teachings, including the belief that Jesus has already returned and gone back again, there is a Trinity and a Mother God, and the need to partake in Passover to be saved. We also seek to answer that very important question of "Will I ACTUALLY run into someone who is a part of this cult?" and the answer may surprise you, especially if you live in the Midwest.

Nick Polk continues to guest as we go through Exodus 9 & 10.

How does Pharaoh continue to be a poor leader? What are his sins? How can he think he can speak with God on equal footing? Is there a contradiction with how the livestock in Egypt are wiped out multiple times over? How do the plagues of boils, hail, locusts, and darkness come into play? Is God fighting and mocking the Egyptian gods? How does Moses handle Pharaoh's request to never see his face again?

Welcome to Summer School! All this week we will be exploring the topic of cults and looking to answer the big question, "Could I really run into someone who is a part of a cult?" The answer may surprise you with this episode. For Day 1 of Summer School, we're looking at the genre of UFO Cults; cults that have extraterestrials worked into their doctrines. From setting up embasies on earth, to infamous Dooms Days cults, cults that include aliens in their teachings add an unique element to the conversation. I also take a few minutes at the beginning of the episode to address some of my own personal theological shiftings.

Are there things you don't like? Wouldn't you like to talk about them? Well, I will as a part of this series. From anime, comics, manga, movies, tv shows, video games, and more, I'll be discussing the things I don't like. The point isn't to be overly negative and spiteful, but to critique and praise the media I've engaged with. The show isn't called "Why I Hate," because there are better ways to engage with the media I don't like than to simply discount them as worthless. I will livestream first to the Systematic Geekology and Anazao Ministries Podcast YouTube pages and then will download the audio proper to the podcast Why I Don't Like... on all major podcasting locations.

I will be continuing with Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation (anime-only), as I explain what I do and don't like about the series in regards to its worldbuilding, characterization, reliance on cliches, and how it impacted the isekai genre to make it what it is today. For this episode, I will be covering episodes 7 and 8 of the first part of the first season. #anime #MushokuTensei #isekai #Rudeus #Eris

How do Rudeus' perversions get worse in the series? How is his birthday treated? Why doesn't he take Phillip's deal? What is the massive Turning Point that happens and why is it one of the best things the series does?

Continuing our series of Religions in our Fandoms, Joshua Noel and Christian Ashley are joined by special guest, Dr Benjamin Chicka, to discuss TWO topics today - God of War & Assassin's Creed! This is a double feature so you get twice the content for this special episode!

.

What is the Assassins Creed game order? What's the next Assassins Creed game? Are Templars good or bad in Assassins Creed? What is a Templar in Assassins Creed? Who is the most powerful assassin in Assassins Creed? Is Assassins Creed Origins as good as Odyssey? Why is Assassin's Creed Black Flag the best? Is Assassin's Creed III historically accurate? Who is strongest god in God of War? How many God of War games are there? Is God of War over? Is God of War Ragnarok worth it? Which is better Gow or Ragnarok? We discuss all this and more in this one! Join in the conversation with us on Discord now!
