Topic: There's a new Mormon offshoot prophet, Denver Snuffer, and he's received some revelations from God

I've been enjoying watching this thing grow. It started with some people just a bit unhappy with the bureaucracy of the mainstream LDS church, and they liked some books a random lawyer named Denver Snuffer wrote. Then he started re-baptizing people and got excommunicated for refusing to stop publishing a book about how he saw Jesus. They've canonized a new set of scriptures, and they're starting little seed churches all over. https://medium.com/the-seer-stone/mormonisms-new-religion-has-its-own-canon-of-scripture-now-6bc11254adcf

As perhaps the first male "prophet" ever to say this, he's actually anti-polygamy and believes the revelation about plural marriage to Joseph Smith was corrupted in early church writings. I don't really understand the "new"/restored Section 132 about polygamy but whatever it's pretty interesting.

No new Gold tablets.

Not exactly a way to produce a flock of members.

'tis the rare religion that does not develop in such a way that the founder gets lots of young tang
