What most people are missing here is the incest these people practice.
Ever hear about the Kinderhook Plates with the strange writings found in Illinois? Joseph Smith translated them. Turns out they were planted by some farmers as a hoax. It wasn’t until 1981 that the church admitted they were fake. But they still don’t explain Smith’s translation.
What I find amazing about these people is the church will change it’s history and the members will accept it and “forget” what they had been taught their whole lives.
And then there’s the salamander letter. hee hee
