So as you read, I went on a Church History tour and saw all the sites. I went to Carthage, and to Nauvoo, and to Independence, and even went to Adam ah Dahmon (sp?
And even with my powerful conviction at Carthage that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God (which thankfully after doing some more logical thinking my mania is starting to clear)
even in the mists of all of these 'spiritual' feelings a thought kept coming up in my head as I was visiting all these places and getting a confirmation that they were all TRUE was...
"Did Joseph Smith pull this crap from his ass?"
I mean seriously everywhere he went he DISCOVERED something significant from ancient history!
This is WHERE Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden.
This is where the lands of the Nephites and Lamanites was!
These plates are ancient scriptures.
This is an ancient Lamanite WHITE dude.
Just over and over and over again he is making discoveries where if any modern day scholar did it would put Einstein and Hawkings fame to shame.
Its just like Star Trek...it's not just a planet that's simple dead rock...but something that must have implications for the whole Federation.
I was starting to think maybe anytime the Saints who had ADHD and started getting bored with what they were being taught...he would pull some more shit out.
and yet because I was in a spiritual high the other part was thinking this is all TRUE. GACK!!!!
