Especially if some of those were characters who were fiction in the first place. ;-)

For the faithful, any round object with a hole in the center could be used as a seerstone.
I like to imagine the FARMS apologists using Krispy Kreme donuts. But really, that's not too likely. They'd only work as long as they were intact. One bite taken from a Krispy Kreme would render it useless as a seerstone. So, no doubt if they're employed as seerstones by FARMS, they're only used for a second or two!

Is it something about a particular stone that makes it suited to functioning as a seerstone? Or would any stone do?
It requires a radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG), 20 Intel Yorkfield series processors in parallel, a USB 2.0 port, and a mouse.

The person using it.
You mean "the imagination of the person using it".

And how do "we" know this is not just a made up story?charity wrote:We know from the experience of the brother of Jared and the Lehites' Liahona, that the Lord can take ordinary items and imbue them with special powers. I suspect this is the case. It takes a special treatment from the Lord, and then faith, as did the Liahona.
In other words, charity says,
