According to MormonISM...
Ancient Jews built submarines, floated from Israel to Mexico, got cursed by God with brown skin for drinking and dancing, became the mighty Aztec empire, killed off all the white people and left a record of all these events written in Reformed-Egyptian on solid gold plates buried in upstate New York.
(From there, obviously, they were dug up by an illiterate farm boy, with the help of the angel of the guy who buried them, and translated with magic “seer stones”)
It’s all very straightforward. Certainly at least as inspiring an insight into the human condition as the Bible.
