What about that first century Mormon Apostle who spent an entire summer buried up to his waist in funeral potatoes? You have to admit that is odder than using the customary Jell-O salad.

Enjoy!

So glad that my putting the word apostle in soft quotes, you immediately presumed that the imposters of which I speak are Mormons, and would not also include the original 12 or Paul.

I think we have a winner.

Apart from being implicated in a murder in New York City later in life, what ridiculous things did he do as compared to what has tumbled out of Holland's mouth?

Hey, I already nominated Holland upthread for this crown.

by the way, I did no realize until your post that Holland was a 1st century Momo Apostle.

I find the Book of Mormon much more interesting to read.

Are you saying those blogposts are less interesting than chloroform in print?

So do I! What you missed is that I was writing with the interest of the Book of Mormon in mind; whereas you were writing with the interest of Pistis Sophia! in mind; and there is no comparison between the two.

Hey, try a Google based and not a Yahoo server. Perhaps your quotes will work.

I guess that I am off the hook here because NOBODY considers me an apostle. Noooobody knooooows but Jesus.
But....if I were of any note I could easily claim the prize of 'Morst Ridiculous Apostle of All-time.
My seniority date is June of 1979. That makes me next in line for apostolic succession. And what is ridiculous is that nobody cares.
I have ministered as an active apostle twelve years among the Mormons and have been mocked, and cast out and twice had my life put in danger by cowardly deeds. I corrected LDS mangled doctrine, my greatest miracle by the power of God after having been SENT by the commanding voice of God preceded by a few month my actually receiving the apostolic witness by the power of the Holy Ghost. I do not claim to have seen Jesus. I have had him sing the lyrics of a song I composed once where he pledged himself my Guardian, Guide and Savior. When Christ is your Guardian and not some mere angel you got true cred. And then I received and unfolded the Greatest Revelation of all Time.....you know.....The Apocalrock. And still just ignored and spat upon and hated and vilified and considered preposterous. Jewels in my crown....all jewels.

Ok. If you're a true apostle what is the Lord trying to say in this picture I took of Lone Peak, Utah? Hint: red circle.
