Lyn Smith Gregory: Joseph Smith's Great Niece Escaping Mormonism | Ep 78 | Moral Combat
In Episode 78 of the Moral Combat Podcast, hosts Nathaniel and Zachary welcome Lyn Smith Gregory, who brings a unique perspective on religious trauma from her experiences with Mormonism. Lyn, a descendant of Joseph Smith, founder of the Mormon church, shares insights from her memoir, detailing the hierarchical structure and beliefs of Mormonism, including tithing, polygamy, and financial success. She recounts her journey of questioning her faith during college, leading to atheism at age 19, and the subsequent impact on her family relationships. Lyn discusses the ingrained guilt and shame she struggled with, eventually seeking therapy at age 28. She delves into her fascination with brainwashing and groupthink, her triggers when watching "The Book of Mormon '' play, and Mormon beliefs about the afterlife. Lyn highlights the growing trend of millennials and Gen Z leaving the Mormon Church, particularly over LGBTQ+ issues, and emphasizes the importance of finding common ground in family estrangement. She reflects on whether complete healing from religious trauma is possible, suggesting that wounds can be transformed into compassion. Lyn's advice to those struggling includes seeking support, being patient, and finding like-minded individuals and professionals for help.
