Because there are no real impediments to cheating.
The cost to the #MormonChurch for hiding $32 billion in investments?
$5 million. That's a lot, right? No.
That's 1/6400 of the value.
0.0156% of the value.
That's a rounding error. That's the catering budget for the church execs.

I learned that the reason why black men could not receive the #priesthood was pure #racism. I learned that the #mormonchurch is a #racist, #misogynistic organization that does not deserve the loyalty of its members - so I #resigned my membership. #whyileft #leavingchurch #exmo https://wasmormon.org/profile/jean-bodie/ #exmormon #cultsurvivor #ldschurch #mormon

The example here is the #MormonChurch, but I would not be at all surprised to find the example here is repeated elsewhere.
#AndrewGarfield and the rest of the cast give fantastic performances. It's going to be super weird when I visit #Utah next year after watching it.

This is sad. But I'm thankful for all the hard work they did. We all have to pick up the torch and continue to call out all the lies of the Mormon church. #mormonchurch #mormonlies
