The Mormons

With all this talk about supernatural religion I decided to start a thread about the Mormons and their beliefs.

Once upon a time there was a man named Joseph Smith.

At the age 14 he had his first vision of the supernatural. He was by himself in the woods where a big burst of light suddenly sprang upon him. It turns out that it was Jesus Christ and God itself right before his eyes. The first question he asked "Which of the Churches are true" in which the supernatural beings responded "none". Over the past 12 years the story evolved in which the final version was written down in 1838. As time went on he and his family would search for gold in the terrain of New England, in which he looked into magic stones to help him find this gold.

When he was 17 he was in his bedroom another column of light came down, in which an angel came and spoke with him. The angel told him where the book of Mormon was located, which was on his parents farm. He finally was allowed to take the plates in which he translated them. The way in which he did this was put this stone on the bottom of a hat and put his face in the hat and would translate the golden plates. After he was done he returned the plates to the angel. These translations would later become the book of Mormon.


So, what do you guys think of this religion?
