I see "Holy Ghost" as a username. I cannot be participating in a place that constantly mocks God. You anti-Mormons are blind and there is nothing I can do to help you. Well, I suppose you could shake the dust off your sandals as a testimony against this latter day digital Sodom. Then agai...

... Uncle Dale, Great points. I'm also willing to bet there was really a Rome and there were really Romans. Acts has many historical elements. Unfortunately, the same can't be said of the Book of Mormon. Well, there was (is) a Jerusalem and there was (is) an Arabia. Maybe some person named Lehi act...

That the author of that web site thinks the probability of the book of Acts is high is hilarious! Acts is every bit as much invention as the Book of Mormon. I’ll go out on a speculative limb and guess that there really was a Saul and that he was a Roman citizen. Folks who had known a guy named Jesu...

Dale (to himself - “proto-Lamanites??”) Too bad this forum doesn't allow upvoting or hearting. I'd give you a vote for sure. You had me laughing. Yeah... missed my calling for sure. Standup comedian doing the Catskills resorts, wearing a Yamalka... I’d have been another Ish Kabbible... It was aroun...

During my decades associated with the RLDS nearly every member I encountered would have had no problem visualizing a Nephi who almost singlehandedly constructed a new Solomon's Temple in the American wilderness, using just such a little hammer Why on earth would they think he did it himself? What a...

It's truly a miracle that Nephi built that temple with a hammer. I'm convinced and ready to repent and get rebaptized. During my decades associated with the RLDS nearly every member I encountered would have had no problem visualizing a Nephi who almost singlehandedly constructed a new Solomon's Tem...

... Same size but not the same quality. I found another LDS depiction of Nerphi's Temple, here: https://knowhy.bookofmormoncentral.org/sites/default/files/knowhy-img/2017/5/extra/temples/brickey-temple.jpg I see that the temple grounds consist merely of the "House of The Lord," with no ac...

If the Mormon authorities have ever provided any illustrations and/or descriptions of Nephi's Temple, I'd be curious to examine its supposed structure, furnishings, sacred objects, etc. UD It's difficult to find General Authorities' approved LDS photos and illustrations, but... maybe these (for Nep...

The temple was built after the manner of Solomon's temple, but it doesn't mean it was as big and magnificent. There were also functional Israelite temples constructed in the Nile Delta and near Aswan, in the period after Solomon's rule. So far as I can determine, these were not quite so "big a...

Uncle Dale, thank you for gracing our board with your presence. Didn’t mean to divert the discussion on this thread, friend... but I had some assistant help available and thought I’d make some comments yesterday. I’ll stop back next time I have someone here to do a little reading, writing and posti...
