Summary
The next time that squeaky clean pair of LDS elders comes knocking on your door, they're in for a surprise! Find out the secrets the Mormon Church would rather you didn't know (and for which they paid plenty of money to keep hushed up unsuccessfully!
In this first book of The Complete Heretic's Guide to World Religion series, historian and award-winning atheist author Dave Fitzgerald takes us behind the Salt Lake curtain for a glimpse at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and answers your questions: Where did this multi-billion dollar tax-exempt corporation come from? Did Joseph Smith really sleep with all those women? Are the Mormons going to take over the whole world, and if so, is there any way to stop them?
But that's not all! Learn about the bizarre, oxymoronic world of Mormon archeology and discover their strange beliefs - not just all the crazy stuff you already know, but all the truly twisted things you never even suspected - including the astounding shocking skeletons rattling around in the closet of the Mormon church hierarchy.
Don't miss out on this fun, informative and painstakingly researched historical romp by the highly praised and award-winning author of Nailed: Ten Christian Myths that Show Jesus Never Existed at All. So when the missionaries show up on your doorstep, you'll have plenty to discuss with them Later days, Saints!
The Complete Heretic's Guide to Western Religion. Because Religion isn't just wrong. It's hilarious.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

How can so many million educated people be taken completely in by this obviously bogus cult. "God" help America and the rest of us.

A must read for any Mormon, or ex-Mormon
What about David Smalley’s performance did you like?
This would have been 5-stars across the board except for Mr Smalley's mispronunciation of names and places, for example he pronounces Heber as "hehber" when it's actual pronunciation is "heeber". Many such examples throughout the reading. Any good news reader should do research into his subject ... I can't imagine BBC getting something like this wrong!
Any additional comments?
I was born into a jack-Mormon family but was encouraged to do Sunday School, Boy Scouts, Aaronic priesthood along with my friends. I fell out with the church in my early teens when my bishop couldn't explain why different religions could all claim that God was on their side but not the other. I then wandered between religions for many years, eventually to become an Atheist. Listening to this book has opened my eyes in so many ways and made me really quite angry about all the lies I was told as a youngster making me SOOO glad I have put religion behind me. I think all formal religions, regardless of the label attached (e.g. Mormon, Catholic, Baptist, Muslim, whatever), are divisive and dangerous. Humanism is the only way forward.

A missed opportunity
What disappointed you about The Complete Heretic's Guide to Western Religion, Book One: The Mormons?
I was very interested to find out more about the belief system behind the Mormon religion. This book dragged it out to a point that I couldn't make it to the end of the book. The drab narration didn't help!
