About Postmormon Postmortem

Mormonism gave you a complete universe, with charts, diagrams, and a plan for everything. Leaving can dismantle all of it at once. Postmormon Postmortem is hosted by Hannah and Jess, two women who left the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and wanted more honest conversations about what comes after. We cover Mormon history, doctrine, culture, true crime, institutional harm, religious trauma, and the messy work of rebuilding a life outside the church. Whether you're freshly out, years removed, or trying to understand someone you love, you're in the right place.

Did Joseph Smith Really Say Mormons Would Save the Constitution? The White Horse Prophecy Explained

Published 21 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] But by 1918, despite all of the murkiness of the history of the prophecy, it starts circulating in print and members were asking Mormon leaders whether it was real. So then at general conference that October, Joseph Fielding Smith said people in the stakes kept putting the question to him and he told them there's no truth to it. Then Joseph F. Smith calls it a ridiculous story. And he says it's just assembled from sentences Joseph might have said. It was never spoken the way that it was written by Rushton. Okay.
