The Far-Right Mormon Divide (w/ Benjamin Park)

There is a far-right divide going on and we might be watching history in the making. Good thing my guest is Mormon historian Benjamin Park, here breaking down the Mormon religious right. What are the factions of Mormonism set for a break-off? Who is taking back what country now? And why are they looking to leaders like Tim Ballard to take them where they want to go? Ben is a wealth of knowledge on all the ways partisanship has become inseparable from the Mormon church. Join us as we get into all the ways the church and its members pick and choose what brand of God's one true church they'll be living today.Check out Ben's article in Slate: https://slate.com/human-interest/2023/09/tim-ballard-sound-of-freedom-abuse-allegations.html👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 👇 I live and die on donor support!
