    Ricky, I challenge you to go get a Book of Mormon and read it, study it, and pray about it with real intent and sincerity. God will manifest that it is true to you if you will do this. You can get a free Book of Mormon here:

    Yeah, that's kind of surprising. I didn't know you were Jewish at all.

    lol well, we typically try to hide it (but can you blame us) until we know anti-semintism is not around us.... well some of us do atleast.

    I do because i dread it.

    No it's not an extension, but


    It's another collection of writings of prophets, similar to the Bible. The word "bible" means "the books".

    It's similar in the sense that it contains various writers, talking about God etc. But all the subject matter is about people that lived in the Americas. Whereas the Bible talks about the Middle East/Egypt/ that area.

    Ricky, what question(s) do you have? Please ask them one at a time so I can research and answer each one coherently.

    On second thought, I would just refer you to ask the LDS missionaries in your area any questions you might have. Message boards just are not very good media for teaching the gospel, and I have to admit to you that I'm not really the best source of LDS doctrine anyway.

    The missionaries are in the phone book--look under Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

    Well, honestly I just wanted to have a debate over mormonism with you. Really to me it does not matter which religion is right.

    Like I've said before I am from the seed of David. I'm promised into heaven.

    But I still have one thing to ask of you. Can you show me strong evidence saying that the israelites could have made it from israel to the americas by boat at the time; or anything suggesting that they could have.

    I've got news for you: no one is promised into heaven automatically. That's a dangerous belief to have, like leaning on a non-existent safety rail.

    I will, if you can show me the same "strong evidence" that Moses parted the Red Sea, or that Daniel survived the lion's den, or that Jesus actually turned water into wine. Obviously these people had help from God. These events are miracles. If the Lehites made it across the sea to the Americas (and they did), then they must have had divine help. Is anything too hard for God?
