The worrying part is, sometimes the people who actually believe this rubbish end up running countries. Isn't that half the problem in the middle east at the moment?
A whole lot of mullahs and muftis in black dresses ruling the country on the basis of a document which was written in the dark ages, being taken as scientific fact today.
And if you think this could only happen in some backward middle east country, at the present time in the good old U.S. of A, one of the front runners in the current presidential campaign firmly believes that 150 years ago an angel of god conveniently presented one of the local non entities Joseph Smith with a whole lot of pure gold plates on which was written a fanciful story about how north america was populated by the 10 lost tribes of israel. He continued to believe this in spite of the fact that dna evidence proves conclusively that the american indian has as much semitic blood in them as an orang-utan.
On the basis of this same science, america executes or exonerates people, so we can take it that it is fairly sound.
Obviously when asked to produce the plates, they couldn't be found.
If someone can believe this stuff and all the other rubbish that is included in this doctrine to the extent that they become a bishop in that particular following I would take it that it should automatically disqualify them from holding any public office on the grounds of diminished capacity to reason.
.... ksssshhttttt ahhhh that's good movement there[}:)]
