I'm considering becoming a mormon, what are the worst parts of it that the church doesn't tell you?

Just thought I'd let you know about this truly excellent series of ~5 min videos where someone breaks down the essential components of Mormonism in an informative, funny, comprehensive and brief manner. You can watch them all in about a half an hour and you'll know almost everything you need to know. By the time you are done, you'll have all of the basics down and will have the framework to know what to ask next without any confusion.

First, let's start with a short musical introduction on what it's like to be a True Believing Mormon dude.

Now a basic overview of the gospel.

Then an explanation of the nature of your soul and where it came from and where it's going.

That deal with polygamy explained.

Why Mormons are not sexist.

Why Mormons are not racist.

How the Book of Abraham was translated from Egyptian scrolls.

The Book of Mormon summarised in ~6 minutes.

Why prophets are awesome.

Why the Mormon Church is Not a Cult.

The importance of modesty.

The importance of tithing your money.

Then here for a musical explanation of how those who yearn for a rational faith can resolve doubt through symbolical interpretation.

And here's a fabulous musical explanation of how the church came to franchise it's ecclesiastical services and doctrinal instruction in a process known as correlation.

How church discipline works.

Now learn about how all of your doubts can be resolved through apologetics.

And here's an excellent video on the importance of religious freedom.

Cheers!
