I really like to discuss the LDS history

I am sure we all like to discuss Church history or any other history. It is when the attacks are disguised as "discussions" and there gets to be a lot of name calling and bitterness that it becomes a pain.

There are several good accounts of the history and they are taught to the High School aged kids so they will know what happened.

We live in Fremont County, Wyoming. The Oregon Trail, Mormon Trail and Pony Express route (Which are the same trail through here.) passes through South Pass, which is in the Southern part of the County.

There are a lot of historical things that took place there.

It is interesting to go and drive over the trail and try to imagine some of the things that took place.

I agree that can happen, so I have better things to do with my time. I want to remain friends with the other conservatives in this nation. (I am sure you are not a Harry Reid Mormon are you?)

I do seriously like to discuss Mormon history, and the always changing Mormon doctrine, but not where it turns personal and nasty. I always have wanted to see the truth of my own ancestry history, good, and bad.

Would love to visit your county. I have two ancestors who were pony express riders. Mine came to Idaho (Fort Lemhi) in 1855.
