You guys are the best. Leaving this cult, even though I know it’s evil, I’m still haunted by the indoctrination . Every time I watch your pod casts, is like the very best therapy.
NeverMo here but I always enjoy your videos and learn a lot. I have been here from the early days, it is lovely to see your confidence and energy Lexie - onwards and upwards.
The only one I ended up getting wrong was the Dalai Lama one. I think it was because my progressive Christian upbringing in Australia, whose Christian population isn’t as rabid and conservative as America’s evangelical fundamentalist weirdos, meant I had a good ear for pure Christian doctrine and Bible Quotes. I only recently became intellectually interested in Mormonism after the Daybell/Vallow and Hildebrandt/Franke cases, so that also helped me spot the more Mormon ideas. I admit the Warren Jeffs quote was a 50/50 guess I got lucky with though.
I got 100% but I seriously have no idea how. I knew the Bruce R. McKonkie only because I have a copy of the Mormon Doctrine. My parents gave it to my husband when we got married.
I know you're not Mormon anymore but that loooong beard's gettin a little Brigham Youngy there Brendon. LOL! Just kiddin. I think you all are great! Keep up the good work!
😅 6 , this was great and seems like a game we would actually have played if it wasn't likely to give up the truth when everybody got the same results guessing would yield. I bet Lex does better.
DO MORMONS HAVE A PRIESTHOOD? In the opening sentences of the Book of Revelation, John the Apostle makes an astounding statement when he declares: "Blessing and peace to you from him who is, and was, and is coming, and from the seven spirits before his throne and from Jesus Christ, the trustworthy witness, the first born of the dead, the sovereign of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us and has released us from our sins by his own blood--he has made us a kingdom of priests for His God and Father--to him be glory and power forever" (Goodspeed, verses 4-6). How incisive is this plain declaration by apostolic authority, Jesus Christ who is the sovereign of the kings of the earth, the one who continues to love us and who has released us from our sins through His own blood, has also made us "a kingdom of priests for His God and Father." Here is the true priesthood indeed. The Christian does not need any temples, secret services, rituals and mysteries. His priesthood knows no special offices and power to communicate with the dead, something which the Mormon priesthood most definitely claims (See Leaves from the Tree, a catechism for young people by Mormon leader Charles Penrose, p.38). The Christian priesthood embraces all those who have been loosed from their sins by the Blood of Jesus Christ, and who enjoy the perpetual love of the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. This concept is further developed in the writings of Peter, who affirms that: "You are the chosen race, the "royal priesthood," the consecrated nation, his own people, so that you may declare the virtues of him who has called you out of darkness into his wonderful light; you who were once no people, but are now God's people; once unpitied, but now pitied indeed..." (I PETER 2:9 and 10, Goodspeed). In this context, the words of the apostle establish that long before there were any mythological Mormon priesthoods, there is a priesthood embracing all redeemed, a "royal priesthood," neither Aaronic nor Melchizedek. This priesthood is composed of all consecrated "ambassadors for Christ," to quote the Apostle Paul, whose task it is to exhort men to "be reconciled to God," "knowing the terror of the Lord" (II Corinthians 5:20 and 11). As has been observed, Mormonism places great stress upon the priesthood. But as we have also seen, it is not the priesthood described in the Scriptures. Instead they have substituted the revelation of "Prophet" Smith concerning a priesthood which has been changed (Hebrews 7:12) and a priesthood which by its nature is "untransferable" (7:24). The resulting dilemma is that they have no priesthood at all since their denial of the true Deity of Jesus Christ and the nature of God rules out the possibility that they could share in the priesthood of all believers. In order for one to be one of the "kingdom of priests for His God and Father" (Revelation 1:4-6) and a member of the "royal priesthood" (I PETER 2:9, 10), one must first have undergone personal regeneration in a saving encounter or experience with the God-Man of Scripture--Jesus Christ. Mormon theology with its pantheon of gods, its perverted view of the Virgin Birth, and its outright condemnation of all churches as an "abomination" (Joseph Smith--History 1:19), removes itself from serious consideration as a form of Christianity. There is more to Christianity than the application of the Christian ethnic. There is a great deal more to the Gospel than the similarity of terms, albeit redefined. Christianity is not just a system of doctrinal pronouncements (though they are of vast importance). It is a living vital experience with the God of the Bible as He was incarnate in the man from Nazareth. Mormonism with its many doctrinal vagaries and outright denials of historic Christian teachings, disqualifies itself. And its priesthood, on which it places so much emphasis, is shown to be the antithesis of the divine revelation.

That was fantastic! You two have amazing on-screen presence. And the shirts are pretty rad!
I kept waiting for him to say “can I phone a friend?” 😂 As a never-mo I guessed correctly and got a better score. This really cracks me up!
I made a quiz like this once. The stuff we put on it was wild. I probably still have access to it
The shirking of having children one could have been JD Vance😂
Hahahaha for real
You two are great together! Always happy to see your hubby in your videos.
NeverMo here but I always enjoy your videos and learn a lot. I have been here from the early days, it is lovely to see your confidence and energy Lexie - onwards and upwards.

Warren Jeffs one got me to exmo here. But, really it's still a branch of Mormonism.

I would love a part 2 with Brendan choosing the quotes 😊 i got 6/10 but missed some Brendan got right and vice versa
She'd better study up on her Heavy Metal band quotes if she wants to have any kind of a chance.
I missed 3, including the Clinton one😂

Free to face the life that's ahead of me
I got 100% but I seriously have no idea how.
I knew the Bruce R. McKonkie only because I have a copy of the Mormon Doctrine. My parents gave it to my husband when we got married.
