In the 1980s, the FARMS bunch fall in line behind John Sorenson's LGT, requiring there be two Cumorahs--one in New York and the other in MesoAmerica. In the late 1980s, Ludlow's Encyclopedia of Mormonism includes an entry that gives room to the Book of Mormon Hill Cumorah being outside of New York, ...

Wow. DCP owes this entire board, and especially beastie, a big, effusive apology. He's a lying sack of sh*t.

It’s so bizarre to hear a grown man say “my life’s foundation is built on top of a serial bigamist, married to 14 year olds, who conned people into searching for buried treasure and burned down printing presses when anyone dared criticize him. All you have is doubt, what is your foundation?” You ca...

How often does Dan criticize his comrades? I confess I don't know because I don't read his blog posts except when they're mentioned here. The only time I have ever seen him criticize a fellow apologist in public was he lashed out at Yahoo Bot once---because Yahoo Bot had spoken out against William ...

Sunday, August 13, 1843.—I went to the stand on Sunday morning, August 13, 1843, and preached on the death of Judge Higbee, a synopsis of which was reported by my clerk, Dr. Willard Richards .

She said the Amway conventions evoked more of "the spirit" per the LDS descriptions than any LDS meeting she'd ever attended. So there is the third option: the church could become a MLM. Oh, wait, it so...

We're debating about wherther or not a rock in a hat is just as legit as having gold plates in creating the B of M when we're talking about a highly iniquitous con-man with 42+ instances of criminal misconduct in a period of 24 years who created an illegal bank and currency and caused most of his r...

Rock in the hat? I do not know why the translation story would be more believable if he stared at the plates he could not read and said words.I do not know why those stone spectacles would be more appropriate. It seems to me that if you believe the Book of Mormon story at all the stone in the hat f...

What’s your problem? Ignorance? You never sat down on your butt and studied history because you want to be spoon fed? The Church was more concerned about whether you touched yourself or a girl than that you knew anything about the Church, its history and its doctrine that you'd be "teaching" people...
