Religion & Art: Claims that Artist Thomas Cole's "Course of Empire" was Influenced By Joseph Smith's "Book of Mormon"

That comparison just happened to be made on the same day that ". . .The headlines today declare that Joe Biden has been elected  President of the United States along with the first black female Vice President, Kamala Harris despite many reports of voting irregularities and voter fraud . . . Many of the cities were planning on a Trump victory and prepared for potential protesting.  Our own LDS owned City Creek Mall in Salt Lake boarded up their store fronts. It is a good indicator on which of the two parties is more destructive."

Awake to a sense of your awful situation - The Downfall of America as we know it.


Below are two painting from a series of five created by Thomas Cole (1801-1848) called  The Course of Empire. He painted these in the years 1833–1836 just a few years after Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon. The five paintings depicts the growth and fall of an imaginary city that after years of freedom and prosperity, corruption would begin which would lead to inevitable decay. History repeats itself despite warnings to us from those who saw our day. In order, Thomas Cole's series of five paintings is The Commencement of the Empire, The Pastoral State, The Consummation of the Empire, The Destruction and lastly, The Desolation.
While these are just paintings of an imaginary city, these events happened to two different civilations in the Book of Mormon. We are on track to repeat their same fate

Swansong (or Self-Glorifying Propoganda) For A Latter-Day "Prophet": Upcoming 11-Minute Video On Modern-Day Social Media

Re: Russell M. Nelson, LDS Church President

According to a post last Saturday on https://barerecord.blogspot.com/ that was followed by another post on Monday, November 16, 2020, comprising a list of attributes for Global Faith Leader vs. Prophet of God  [scroll down farther to find that], there was an interesting clear connection made between the latest 8-part first season promotional video series by The LDS Church called The Chosen where the phrase  "He's treated them all" . . .  It is the first multi-season series about the life of Christ and portrays Jesus "through the eyes of those who met him." OK. Some examples of included, "Christ has healed each one of them. He's treated them all."

In contrast, yesterday, the LDS Church released a new video. It is a 30 second promotional video for an upcoming 11 minute video that will be uploaded on President Nelson's social media accounts (Facebook, Instagram and Twitter) on November 20, 2020 at 11:00 am.

Below is a still frame from the video describing President Nelson as the one who has treated them all: the Sick, the Sad, the Diseased ,the Disappointed, the Infected. the Instable, the Heart Failures, the Failing Hearts. He's treated them all. No mention at all of Jesus Christ in this promotional video.
There seems to be alot more emphasis on this "Global Faith Leader", instead of Jesus Christ, the One who truly has treated them all.
