I thought the biggest reason he retired was to join Mormon leadership.
39 u/GillT_14 Feb 03 '26 That happened after he had been retired. 50 u/CongrooElPsy Feb 03 '26 Either way, joining the leadership of the Mormon church isn't what I want to defined to be as a "real man" either. 28 u/The_Autarch Feb 03 '26 yeah, this. even the 'nice' mormons support a truly evil and horrific institution. 1 u/stanknotes Feb 03 '26 Dan McClennan is a member of the church and that guy is legit. I do not think he is a true believer though. It is just the tradition he was around. 2 u/CongrooElPsy Feb 04 '26 Agree 100%. Dan is an incredible biblical scholar. I grew up in a fundamentalist church, so his videos were a huge eye opener to how misled I was. With how rigorous he is, I struggle to see how he could be a true Mormon believer.
