The Book of Mormon makes for interesting reading. It's exactly as if a 19th century American man had tried to write a bible style gospel ......oh wait a minute...yeah.
Interesting how much emphasis is placed on sin as the origin of racial/colour distinction; also fascinating that the original inhabitants (the real 'Native Americans') are described as white....and I love that the Garden of Eden was in America. Can't recall now, was it Montana or Missouri?

Smith had his um.. "visions" just down the road from here near Susquehanna PA. I actually did a land survey near the ruins of his homestead. They're probably going to turn fleecing Mormans into a cottage industry over there. You see a bus load of believers now and then, all they need is a PT Barnum or Walt Disney...
