true.

but that wasn't the case for the likes of j.smith, who did not only get away with it but also had it recognized as a religion. I bet that late at night he was laughing at the fools who actually thought he was a prophet.

So your saying these people(Nephites and laminates) were the Aztecs? Mayans? That I'm really not buying. No connection with the Israelites. How would they lose the knowledge of Christ coming to the America's in a space of less than 1500 years? When true Christianity has flourished for 2000 years now? It's just not true. Mesoamericans lost there complete rec ...[text shortened]... en written in stone or something. It's not credible no history to back it up.

The Bible.

Some time ago, I posted the name of a book. The author is not LDS. I know you wouldn’t accept anything from an LDS author so I posted the name of that book. This book will answer many questions you seem to have about the Americas. Why should I even continue this conversation when many things are being ignored? All you have to do is order it from the Library and after reading it, come to your own conclusion.

I believe both the Bible and Book of Mormon to be the word of God. I believe due to the many experiences I have had in my life. I believe in following the teachings of Jesus Christ.

I have read wikipedia about Joseph Smith. When the paragraph starts by saying “In his youth”, then I have to say “so what?” I have done many things in my youth before I decided to be baptized in the LDS Church, which I am not particularly proud of. Does this mean I’m not a good person today? Of course not; what matters is that we strive to continue following the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Your right it's pointless. 🙂 Who is Christ? This is what it comes down to.
I admire the LDS for the morality at least the guys I've met but I will never buy into the theology of the LDS. One the surface the words seem the same but it's the meaning behind those words.
