Guest bat Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 "As far back as 1837, I know that [smith] said the moon was inhabitedby men and women the same as this earth, and that they lived to agreater age than we do--that they live generally to near the age of a1000 years. He described the men as averaging near six feet in height,and dressing quite uniformly in something near the Quaker style." (Young Woman's Journal, 3:1892, pp. 263-264)I celebration of this cosmic truth, please open your hymn books and sing along.http://www.rathergood.com/moon_song/ Quote
Paul Osborne Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 Yes, and every word that comes forth from the prophet's mouth is a divine utterence because he was perfect just like Jesus and never made a mistake or made a wrong assumption. Paul O Quote
Guest bat Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 I believe that god told Joseph Smith that people live on the moon. Didn't you like the song? Quote
Guest Starsky Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 It was those rat like creatures with horrid teeth that caused me to stop eating at Quiznos (or whatever they are called) As for men living on the moon. Well they do...but they are resurrected beings. Quote

Tr2 Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 Maybe men do live on the moon. I don't know. I can't see them and neither can anyone else. I keep an open mind. Just because we can't see it doesn't mean it isn't there.Funny, that's what my mother told me about leprechauns when I was a kid. Are these people invisible? I guess the fact that there have been people to the moon, and around the moon, and they've seen no signs of people living there means nothing to you? Forget the fact there is no oxygen, nor natural resources for them to live. Do they sit around all day playing cards all day or to they play hop-scotch with moon rocks? Quote
Guest bat Posted February 12, 2004 Report Posted February 12, 2004 I think that they sit around all day wondering if the Earth is inhabited. Quote

I had an imaginary friend when I was 3 and there is as much validation for his reality as there is for people who live on the moon. I noticed that I am comparing current mormon things to the silly things I did when I was a little kid. I guess that is saying something. Quote

Paul O paul--the problem is A LOT is riding on JS's credibility that is NOT riding on any other prophet. Whether JS was capable of being wrong about his perceptions is a CENTRAL issue to the validity of Mormonism as a whole. So YES, it is a BIG deal when JS is proved wrong about something. The question arizes, what else was he wrong about? Angelic visitations, the origin of writings on metal plates, the history of the native americans?By the way, it was common speculation of the times that the moon was inhabited. This was not original to JS or BY. Quote
