110: Joseph Smith and Freemasonry with Cheryl Bruno

Cheryl Bruno is fascinating! Mother of 8, expert on Freemasonry and early Mormonism, maker of Mormon tarot cards, author, poet, historian, and very good friend. This presentation is altruistic. Cheryl is the first historian willing to go on the record to publicly say that we have a valid argument that Joseph was not a polygamist! Thank you, Cheryl, for your courage and honesty! But, we too often hurt ourselves by my muddying the water with arguments that are not good. She wants to help our community be able to gain more credibility by focusing on the good arguments, and letting go of the bad ones. She is doing this for us. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION!
