25. I just want them to find the hat. And the gold tablets.

I just think it's such an incredible missed opportunity to get LOADS of converts cos if I looked in that hat and saw angel-tongue I'd SO want to join. Silly Moroni.

Unless, of course, the Heavenly Bureau of Gospel Credibility Subtraction is out in force on that one, ensuring that conversion to Faith remains an article of Faith rather than some trivial process of just reading instructions.

In which case, you know, bummer. I guess I'll just have to carry on wrestling with Doubt.

Dammit, Lord! Your faith tests are hard.
