I don't know if this is true, but in light of what we know today, it would certainly make sense........

"Joseph Smith taught that the Earth was created like a cake, from ingredients of different ages. Just like a cake was made from wheat that is a year old, eggs from a few days and milk fresh this morning from the cow, so too, the Earth is made from parts of different ages."
See Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pages 350-352.

Plus, we helped too!!! I remember making a clay ashtray....

God did not create the physical Earth Himself. Actually, all of us helped out. Under the direction of Jesus and Adam, we created the Earth. Some of us created trees, others created rocks and still others created animals, based on God's blueprints. See Abraham 3:22-24, Doctrines of Salvation, Vol. 1, pages 74-75.

And that always begs the question, then when did the material from other ages get created?

[But] It's Turtles All the Way Down:

“William James, father of American psychology, tells of meeting an old lady who told him the Earth rested on the back of a huge turtle. "But, my dear lady", Professor James asked, as politely as possible, "what holds up the turtle?" "Ah", she said, "that's easy. He is standing on the back of another turtle." "Oh, I see", said Professor James, still being polite. "But would you be so good as to tell me what holds up the second turtle?" "It's no use, Professor", said the old lady, realizing he was trying to lead her into a logical trap. "It's turtles-turtles-turtles, all the way!”

The common Mo response, it that it's been there forever, makes no sense, either.

...the only logical explanation is that Betty Crocker was one of God's original wives. How else would the Earth have been created through a cake mix?

Wait.......no, maybe God's spirit children had a hand in it.......

Actually, it was Heavenly Mother in the Kolob celestial kitchen. She likes to wear June Cleaver high heals and dresses. There's never any frosting on her very modest dress. She uses a spatula to gently swirl the frosting--thus creating ocean waves.

It's just that her name and duties are so sacred that we don't talk about them. The Boner.

Next time I'm in Trader Joe's, I'm going to ask if they have a mix with dinosaur bones.

Dinosaur bones from SPACE, not that cheap stuff....

So HF is Duncan Hines?

...did you just "out" Heavenly Father?.......BAD!!!

Great photos! The first may show the hazards of cake-eating without proper dental hygiene afterwards (eroding dinosaur bones), while the second is so timely--carving a roast tapir for Thanksgiving.

...well, there are even cases where the best LDS dentists will shirk their responsibilities. Remember to floss!!

The earth is like unto a five year old fruitcake that passes from one planet god to the next you see.

Plenty of fruits and nuts in both as we all too plainly see.

...OK. Only 5 years? I'll bite!!! Yum yum!!

I have to confess. I was the one assigned to make the horses for North and Central America. I got some of the instruction manual mixed up with the elephant and hippos instruction book and ended up with this funny looking animal with a weird snout. I called it a horse anyway and hoped no one would notice. Everything was going fine until some idiot wrote some book called the Book of Mormon and spotlighted my "horses."
