What's wrong with Mormons?


Well it started out with Joe Smith, and the women to whom he said,
“There’s an angel with a flaming sword threatening to take my head
If you don’t agree to marry me….and accompany me to bed!”
(a good few of them only teens, and many others already wed)

Polygamy was a Mormon doctrine since 1831
Though denied by all who practiced it or the church would be undone!
What of the women who said no?  They were forced, not to walk, but run,
And publicly called whores and worse by Joe and Brigham Young.

Let’s move along, forward in time to 1978
When Afro Americans had long since had their rights and Mormons held to hate.
But President Kimball caved.  So what happened to Young’s prophecy of late
That said blacks will NEVER hold priesthood?  Turns out it was a fake…

In 30 more years ask a Mormon “What the hell was that about?”
And I’m sure they’ll smile sweetly and brainlessly they’ll tout
“The prophecy just said “worthy males”!”, and toss the issue out.
They’ll forget about such bigotry.  Their church is true, they have no doubt.

Now it seems they have gotten away with a few ‘isms’ to date
So why not tell homosexuals they’re wrong? (a current hot debate)
Then they’ll claim that it was said with love, and not an ounce of hate!
Though it’s sure to drive many a teen to an untimely fate.

BUT once a hundred years go by – if the church is still quite strong
None with vivid emotional memory will know all that went wrong
Just as those women and the ‘blacks’ – the ‘gays’ will have no one to sing their song.
People will continue to flock to Mormonism, a massive, successful con.
