Archaeologists say that the only large animal domesticated in the new world was the llama. All the others were imported by Europeans after 1492. The BOM refers to sheep, cattle, and horses, none of which were here at that time. The only elephant-like animal found in the new world was the mammoth which were extinct by 10,000 BC. Well the "horse" family started here on the North American continent and literally spread worldwide before dying out here. Only to be reintroduced as you said, by the Europeans. Ever hear of the pygmy mammoths on the Channel Islands by Santa Barbara. Yep, they were a thing.

Both the Mormon and Scientology church have their own 24 hour cable/satellite TV networks now. The Mormon's goes by BYN and Scientology's is SCNTV.

i was twisting the horns off a big 8 point buck, setting on the bookshelf across the room. i swear it sounded like Radio Arcturus was trying to send a message.
now i don't know if that's the hq's for the mighty YHWH, or some other galactic power and ruler.
our atmosphere down here on urth is not conducive to receiving galactic radio.

was there any talking donkeys or gold tablets falling out of the sky as part of their special effects? As you point out...theres enough in the regular 'orthodox' belief array of Bibles to make a play and have people rolling in laughter in the aisles no less. yet Mormons are even a punching bag for many christians...christians who think their own wacky adopted beliefs have a higher validity...such is the widespread ludicrously of religion. Christians with competing fantasies about God have been putting crap on other differing christians for two millennia.

well, Starman, economics has now entered the picture and come into play for better or worse.
halloween and christmas are two equally important days for the old religion and for christians.
but, now the merchants, marketeers and mfg'ers have entered the arena. money is important.
i wish we could make dec 21, the day of the rising sun as the important holiday for observation.
but, that'd likely bankrupt any number of small entreprenuers who depend upon the seasonsss.

Just saw it last night... laughed hard through most of it. I suspect it would not fit a lot of tastes here... We saw it three or so months ago and laughed our azzes off.

Theres no doubt many christians will fight to the death to defend their objective money /material wealth and position in the pecking order of society ..yet then try to convince you its their subjective faith that that really sustains them...LOL. They really try to ignore where Jesus tells the wealthy man to give all that he has to the poor and come follow Jesus...christians who cannot do that seem to love money more than they love God, which is in clear breach of the highest commandment given by Jesus.

It goes against my better judgement, but here goes...
How does a backwoods country bumpkin, in the early 1800's, write hundreds of pages of doctrine, government systems, and histories of wars in a manner of months?
I've read letters from the man, written after he wrote the Book of Mormon, and the man could hardly compose a full sentence.
You've seen the play, maybe you really should read 10 pages of that book and ask yourself my question above...

Thanks for all the bights you sonuvabitches!
The correct answer is, "Two jews fighting over a penny".
Epstein didn't kill himself.
"Play Cinnamon Girl you Sonuvabitch!"
Biden didn't win the election.
