Not one strand of Hebrew DNA was found among them, utterly disproving the book of Mormon.
The breakaway LDS sect of mormonism made a change to the introduction page of the Book of Mormon....It read originally:
“The book was written by many ancient prophets by the spirit of prophecy and revelation. Their words, written on gold plates, were quoted and abridged by a prophet-historian named Mormon. The record gives an account of the two great civilizations. One came from Jerusalem in 600 B.C., and afterward separated into two nations, known as the Nephites and the Lamanites. The other came much earlier when the Lord confounded the tongues at the Tower of Babel. This group is known as the Jaredites. After thousands of years, all were destroyed except the Lamanites, and they are the principal ancestors of the American Indians.”
Changed in 2004 to:
"....the Lamanites, and they are among the ancestors of the American Indians.”
....And people wonder where Romney learned to lie so easily.
Do you mean the turn of the 20th century or of the 19th?
As of 2012, researchers have done extensive DNA sequencing studies of both many populations of Jews and of American Indians, with the most advanced technology available. According to these studies, American Indians came from Asian ancestors, not from Israelites, despite the complicated genetics of the Jews.
Moreover, NO ONE with any knowledge of the Early Christian Church, starting with Christ and his Holy Apostles, and continuing on from there, would believe that the True Church of the Apostles was “lost”. It continues in the Holy Orthodox Church, which has maintained an unbroken connection with the Apostles and their successors, the Apostolic Fathers.
The ones who restored the True Church to the North American continent were the Russian missionaries who first came to Alaska, followed by the Orthodox faithful who immigrated here from Eastern Europe. St. Herman of Alaska is the Patron Saint of North America.
If anyone cannot believe the science or the history, he or she can pray to St. Herman to intercede with God to reveal the truth to them. We need no Mormon/LDS “church”, which has been falsified many times over!!!!
