Mormon logic: Flat earth was falsified but how does one attempt to verify Kolob let alone that God is the source of all light and that is how Kolob gets its light and how "Kolob gives its light in a similar way"???
So, Bible writers were ignorant of the shape of the earth but Joseph Smith and Brigham Young know the astronomy real good?
" “Do you really think there was a global flood?” he asked, as he modeled the shape of the earth with his hands.
“Wait. Do that again,” I quickly shot back.
This time, his hands were still as he posed the question.
“No. Ask the question like you did the first time with your hand motions.”
After he repeated the exercise, I asked him a simple question: “Wasn’t the world flat until 1492 when Columbus sailed the ocean blue?”
He laughed.
“Makes all the difference when you think about it from the perspective of biblical narrators, doesn’t it?” "

The explanation for figure 5 in Facsimile 2 in Abraham explains that the planet Enish-go-on-dosh “borrows its light from Kolob through the medium of Kae-e-vanrash, which is the . . . governing power. . .” It also later says that two other stars, Kli-flos-is-es and Hah-ko-kau-beam, also receive “light from the revolutions of Kolob.” "
