I am not from FAIR or FARMS. I find their work highly interesting but to be honest sometimes it gets hard to read pages and pages and pages and pages of whether the Sumerians were actually the Cimmerians or whatever.

True, I guess I did feel like I identified with some of the other Mormons on the website and felt "safer" posting here first.

I still don't know that I believe you. The LDS threads are as contentious as any thread on FReeRepublic can get, so your contention that you feel "safer" is somewhat ludicrous. There are just two, maybe three "members" (LDS) actively posting on this thread and they are the same ones that post and respond every time. There are about 4 or 5 of us on the other side, so it is quite a small group that actually discusses these issues ad infinitum.

Generally one doesn't come to a political forum to discuss religious topics first. It's just simply curious.
