Runs 4 minutes.
In the next video a former temple worker proposes a challenge as to what exactly will count for evidence that Mormonism is a fraud perpetrated by Joseph Smith and his successors. Runs 13:40.

Cults: How Mind Control Works
Former Mormon and physician Joshua (last name unclear) explains how cults employ mind control using the BITE model (Behavior control, Information control, Thought control, Emotional control) of Steven Hassan, famous cult expert. He explains the specifics with examples from Moromonism: how they control what you can, and cannot read, who you can and cannot interact with, what you can wear and eat, lies they tell about doctrine until you are higher level initiates, and exhausting members with constant activities. Runs 29 minutes.
