Mosiah 24-25: Nephite As a Second Language

#108 Mosiah 24-25: Nephite As a Second Language

Amulon was a NASL teacher

Brother Benjamin and Sister Patience get two chapters closer to the end of this abysmal book of Mosiah. We also loop back to some verses from the last chapter that made no sense, as Brother Benjamin interprets the atrocious prose.

Key Amusements Include:

• Quote from Brother Benjamin: "I do not understand what is going on with this book."
• Who the fuck is Zenif again?
• The Book Of Mormon Rangers Return!
• Brother Benjamin tells us about his latest trip to the Burning-Man-esque "Element Eleven".
• Sister Patience tells about the "Dark Mofo" festival in Tasmania that made the news, and Brother Benjamin goes down a google rabbit-hole reading about it.
• God doesn't embarrass easily, clearly.
• The overtly repetative and full-of-fill Mosiah 24:23 -

"And now the Lord said unto Alma: Haste thee and get thou and this people out of this land, for the Lamanites have awakened and do pursue thee; therefore get thee out of this land, and I will stop the Lamanites in this valley that they come no further in pursuit of this people."

Smitty could have just written, "God said, leave quickly, the Lamanites are now awake and pursuing you, but I will stop them in the valley."

Arghhhhh.
