Lying for the Lord, is similar to lying for Jesus, but this phrase is particularly associated with the Mormon church (The church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints). Lying for the Lord is when a Member of the Mormon church gives information which they know is false - or fails to admit to something which they know is true - to make their church seem better, or less corrupt (or less weird) than it really is The Mormon tradition of lying for, or about, their religion goes back to the founder, Joseph Smith Joseph Smith, in "Address of the Prophet—His Testimony Against the Dissenters at Nauvoo", delivered Sunday, May 26, 1844, Joseph Smith stated: "What a thing it is for a man to be accused of committing adultery, and having seven wives, when I can only find one. I am the same man, and as innocent as I was fourteen years ago." as the Mormon's own genealogical files will reveal, at this time Joseph Smith had many polygamous "wives" this is not the first example of the Mormon church lying for the lord - it is simply the best known of many lies Propagated by the Mormon church, continuing throughout the whole history of the Mormon church. Currently the Mormon church employes semi-official 'apologists' to try and defend themselves against the many sources which reveal the historical lies of the Church - semi official so the church can maintain 'plausible deniability'
"the Mormon religion is in no way related to masonry. It's just a religion, just like any other religion. (It's not a cult. I would know. I am Mormon.)" "You know that's not true, and I think you're trying to make your church look better by Lying for the Lord"
A Barnum Statement is a phrase used by conmen (for example a psychic) to try and make people think they have some deep insight into their psychology or life. They are also commonly used in horoscopes Barnum Statements are statements which most people will agree with, regarding themselves, while not realizing that almost every other person will also agree with them regarding their own lives examples are: "you have a good sense of humor, but not everyone sees it" "you tend to think about things before taking action" "You have had some major challenges in your life" "you recently had a disagreement with someone you care for"
"The psychic told me that I was quite intelligent, but other people dont always see it" "Sounds like she was just feeding you a Barnum Statement"
