Re: Names and Reincarnation in Early Mormonism

That’s good evidence on the other side of the question to be sure, Shulem, but I am not certain it falls decisively against the issue.

Re: Top 10 Falsifiable FAIRMORMON Claims

I'd say that's a slam dunk, and so far uncontested. Just wait till Fat Dan gets the word. He'll be sorry. Mounting Evidence for the Book of Mormon By Daniel C. Peterson 2009 The appearance of two men named Alma in the Book of Mormon has occasioned much comment. Critics observe that Alma is a woman’...

Transmigration a Doctrine of the Devil
