Reply #14: i am reading "under the banner of heaven"

[shugah]

and yes, it is scary! the lds distance themselves from the fundamental groups - but based on the "americanism" of the mormon religion - jesus visited america shortly after his resurrection, and the garden of eden was right here in america... well, i can see why mormonism is our most popular homegrown religion - when it started, and even more so now.

i once bought a supermarket tabloid that claimed, all in one issue, that excalibur had been found in the US, that noah's ark had been found in one of the west coast states, that atlantis was just off shore from new jersey, and of course, that batboy was going to make a run for congress.

it boggles the mind!
