complicated and confusing, so the average person has to rely heavily on the knowledge of chosen elders, who probably have a direct link to god.

As for the contents of the video, I take some of it with a grain of salt, as I haven't been able verify a lot of it.

The best people to put this in perspective would be former Mormons who would actually know what was taught.
