Thanks for the laugh ... by recalling the story of the Jaredite migration ... one of the most ridiculous tales in the Book of Mormon ... which is saying a lot.

For the benefit of the uninitiated, the Jaredites were supposedly a group of Semitic people who traveled to the Americas from Babylon around the time of construction of that city's Tower of Babel. They made the journey in submarine barges that were designed by a rather stupid Mormon god.

Dr. Kent Ponder, an engineering professor at the U.S. Naval Academy, describes some of the critical scriptural passages and has a lot of fun analyzing them HERE.
