Lots has transpired on The Apocalrock I need to update the second PDF in my links below. Here is the latest, the prophet Mormon is inscribing a gold plate on his tilt up desk with a stylus in his right hand. He is on the right. His son, Moroni is in front of him looking back as if keeping an eye out for trouble. The rest of the mountain looks like piles of plates in the striations in the rocks piled up this way and that way. So he must be abridging. This angle was from I-215 just East of Redwood Road.

Lately I sighted two men in painted faces with smoking gun having been fired at Joseph Smith, Willard Richards, John Taylor, and killing Hyrum Smith. They are up there like a Mormon Mount Rushmore. If you are really nice and admit to seeing this one perhaps I will put up the Martyrdom Rush in at Carthage Jail. This is right up front on the same mountain in early light of dawn so it washed out enough so only the sighting was visible. How cool is that?

For the Philistines who cannot see and think that that counts for high brow critical thinking try and keep in mind that this IS art and it only needs to suggest the image and the better the wiff of suggestion rather than overt portrayal makes for truly high class art. Hmph!

NL,

It is cool. I would love to have a table like that.

I think a tilt-up desk is preferred when inscribing gold plates.

You have your Apocalrock. Tobin thinks God visited him in person. I have to wonder about the thought process that goes on with you guys. Why is God revealing this information to only .0000000146188% of the world population? What makes you two so special? And why doesn't your information from God correlate?

I've spent a good deal of time looking at Mt Olympus and I've never seen anyone expect for hikers. I've also hiked up there and didn't see any signs. But for what it's worth everytime I see it now I think of you Nightlion.

I think Tobin is getting some good insight. I rather doubt his conclusion of an actual theophany and I have told him as much. Wrenched from his wretchedness any spiritual event would be O MY GOD!

Why do you suppose everyone on the planet should be in with God equally? How so?

Christ commanded that we come unto him in a very precise manner, nothing more or less than that which results in the visitation of the power of the Holy Ghost, whereby we are begotten the sons and daughters of God. That is rather distinctive wouldn't you say? Sort of sets the saints aside from everyone else.

It is such a rare event in this day and age that if you were privy to a meeting of the BIG 15 and they were trying to figure out how it is that none of them ever got that baptism of fire and of the Holy Ghost, you would realize how clueless even they are.

I have been telling Mormons how to do it for forty years. They hate me for it. Notice how this board tunes it out with malice. Over on MAD they s*** bricks every time I sneak in because I have their hypocrisy dead to right.

Thanks. You shall have your moment in time.

It just seems to me that God's method of reaching humanity with the "real truth that everyone else has been missing" is spectacularly inefficient.

With whom?

LDS are apostate.
LDS Fundies are apostate.
I am forty years ahead of whomever gets it tomorrow. We shall hardly see eye to eye.
What the heck am I gonna do if a thousand souls actually make the jump to state of righteousness? It would be like a nursery of screaming babies all freakin' educated thinking that they already know so much. I will most likely rue the day of my great success.

I exult in the bliss of my present isolation.
