    Wrong. He DID use spectacles and then resorted to the rocks (a tool of his profession which was "finding" lost treasures by peering into a hat with rocks in it). For the benefit of those not yet educated, we are talking about Joseph Smith translating the Books of Mormon given to him by the Angel Moroni by peering into a hat containing rocks, sacred rocks at that... Yes, I am not making it up. We are talking about the Joseph Smith that had himself ordained "King on earth!"

    Here's a link for you on your church's revisionist history of what Joseph Smith claimed that happened with the Native Americans. There's a lot of historical/archaeological problems with the book of Mormons including elephants in the Western Hemisphere and advanced metal producing capabilities in America before 400 A.D.

    if you want to know what we "Mormons" believe in, ask a good, practicing Mormon.

    OK, I'll ask you a few questions then.

    -Do you believe that Joseph Smith had magic spectacles with which he translated the Book of Mormon?

    -Why do Mormons wear long underwear with Masonic symbols on it?

    -Do you believe that Native Americans rather than originating from crossing over from Siberia to Alaska are a lost tribe of the Israelites?

    -Do you believe that blacks are the descendants of Cain; an associate of Lucifer as stated by your church?

    -Do you believe you will rule your own planet when you die?

    OK, I'll bite. So you're saying the WHOLE Republican Party is going with Orrin Hatch? An otherwise obscure idiot from Utah? Saying "I told you so" or "you're getting what you voted for" is fun even though you're dead wrong. I note that his main partner is a Democrat, Patrick Leahy of Vermont.

    Now, what about this champion of webcasters and enemy fo the RIAA who happens to be a lifelong Republican? Guess you don't read Slashdot that much...

    What about this Republican? Just in case you read PCWorld....

    Here's a few Republicans against the RIAA. Wow. Must not use Google much, huh whitroth?

    How about this Republican taking a swing at the RIAA?

    And finally.... One of the RIAA's main champions is.....DEMOCRAT!

    God, I hate smug bastards. Especially ones who use cute little terms like "Reptilians" and don't even know a Rpeublican is spearheading an investigation into the RIAA. Google Search for those who can't do it themselves.

    when the new Debian installer comes out, will that kill Libranet? I sure as hell hope not. Libranet is one of the unknown gems of Linux distros. If you can ween yourself of the need for the latest and greatest buggy software releases, Libranet *just works*.

    Utah's Mormons vote and think the way the largest employer in their state (the Mormon Church) tells them to. Utah and the Mormon church were one of the single largest roadblocks to getting the Equal Rights Amendment blocked. So if the church wants it, ti will happen.
