Elsie, I’m interested in the Mormon - Gnosticism connection, I’d be interested to hear your take on it. The lead article makes some very interesting points along those lines.
See my post 100.
Sorry; but I'm not.
I really do not care what things influenced Joseph Smith and his made-up religion; other than the two demons who so convinced him of 'truth'.
Any thing else is a dancing-on-pinheads waste of time; IMHO.
