But I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that it's not entirely her fault. Now, yes, Lori is a narcissist of the highest order, and that probably would have been true no matter what religion she was. But when narcissism meets Mormonism, it's like fire meeting gasoline.

Because of Mormonism's built-in improvisational nature, any LDS member with a touch of evil and a big heaping of arrogance, they have a ready-made cult kit that they can pick up and use at any moment. And we've seen this happen dozens upon dozens upon dozens of times.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You can go play in this little area. And what's worse is that it doesn't take a lot of these people to do a lot of damage. The number of ardent followers that Chad Daybell had, it didn't even approach double digits. Yet he and Lori together were able to use Mormon ideology to justify the murder of four people, including two children.

Furthermore, fringe Mormon voices like Pap and Avow, along with all those NDE and End Times authors, they're constantly adding their own bits of lore to the Mormon storyline. And the more stuff there is to build from, the easier it is for people to spin off into their own dark corners where all manner of evil lurks.

I like that. Well, Spider-Ham's been around since the 80s. I used to love Spider-Ham comics. Okay. You don't sound convinced. It's not for him. I mean, it should be, though. Yes, that is true. But that's all to say that religion in this country is becoming more dangerous by the day, more sinister, more violent. And it's not just Mormonism.

There's an edge to Christianity at large that's only gotten sharper over the last few decades. And I'm not exactly sure what the rest of us are supposed to do about it.

What I can say, though, is that while it is your choice to follow whatever religion you want, it's your responsibility as a human being to think for yourself, especially if the people in charge start asking or telling you to do things or believe in things that you know aren't right. For some of you, that day might come very soon.
