It just doesn’t make sense. twelve, 24, 25, apostles, disciples.....why again could none of these people keep the gospel from needing to be restored? God knew they would die eventually. Oh wait, John didn’t. I really want to know where he is supposed to be. Why wasn’t he raised to the head of the LDS church if he were still alive?

And don’t forget the 3 Nephites, the didn’t die either.

There is no need for a restoration. And the funny thing is, Smith adopted a restorationist stance based upon Ridgon’s Campbellite infulence. There are several ‘restored’ churches that came out of Campbellite teachings - LDS is just one of them.

Now THAT is about the most sensible question about mormonism that I have ever seen!

I'm sure one of the mormon scholars will be easily able to answer it.....NOT!
