[The Mormon Newscast April 21st 2025] Is religion actually… good for you? In this episode of The Mormon Newscast, we dive into a powerful New York Times article exploring whether Americans who left religion are now realizing what they lost. From loneliness epidemics to the hunger for awe, we break down the data behind belief, belonging, and the return of spirituality—even among the secular. Could it be that religion, for all its flaws, still offers something our culture hasn’t been able to replace?
Also in this episode: updates on several LDS temples across the globe, a dismissed lawsuit involving tithing funds, the passing of Pope Francis and its global implications, and a handful of smaller but intriguing headlines from the world of faith. Buckle up—this one’s a mix of reverence, reason, and righteous curiosity.

You are completely overlooking what’s happening in society right now.
Masses now distrust science, medicine, politics, religious leaders, etc.
They are organically moving toward a new movement of superstition…..Witchery, new cult leaders, trumpism, etc etc etc. The new religions are forming before our very eyes.
The real movements won’t happen by deliberate and intentional efforts by people like Bill Reel. People are looking for new prophets. The prophets are the ones starting the new movements.
It’s beginning again.
It’s not a “church and state” issue.
“Separation of church and state” is not found in the constitution.
This is an “establishment” issue.
The state should sell that plot to the mormon church. That might still violate the establishment clause, but it would be better than hosting seminary on school property.
