long ago ideas

“When we are tired, we are attacked by ideas we conquered long ago." - Friedrich Nietzsche. Long ago, Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery conquered false claims that the Book of Mormon was fiction or that it came through a stone in a hat. But these old claims have resurfaced in recent years. To conquer them again, we have to return to what Joseph and Oliver taught.

Tragic Lebanon - and M2C, of course

It's tragic to see the ongoing destruction in Lebanon and Israel. Lebanon has been one my favorite counties in the Middle-East, partly because they speak French there (or used to when I was there). Some nostalgic photos from my time there.

The Cedars of God site

[Blogger wouldn't let me upload photos of me with women wearing hijab, even though they were the archaeologists who took us to Baalbek, Byblos, Sidon and other sites. So I cropped them out.]


As long as I'm reminiscing, here's a photo from the time I crossed the Suez canal on a ferry.


And some pics from back in the day when I was young and ignorant and still believed M2C because I trusted the "experts" at FARMS, FairMormon, etc., haha. Photos of those youthful days reminds me how easy it is for college students to be so easily indoctrinated by their professors.
