Of course you’re right, I’m just thinking that the Church of LDS Inc. has the legal horsepower to sue the pants off anyone who “misuses” the term Mormon, especially if the target’s located in Utah or the intermountain corridor.

There is 'suing' and then there is 'winning'.

Soemtimes the threat to sue can produce victory, but in this case the BoM has been public domain for way too long.

Anyway, isn’t the onrush of information technology that seems to accelerate each minute, just shooting COJCOLDS doctrines and historiography to shreds!!? Aren’t their artifacts being proven forgeries faster than a snake oil salesman? Doesn’t the complete lack of archeological evidence of the existence of a North American Hebrew kingdom affect anyone’s beliefs? And the subsequent massacre of those blond Hebrews by dark skinned Jewish Indians with Siberian DNA, isn’t that raising a few eyebrows in Intermountain Zion? Sheesh! I mean, Shiz!
