So has anybody discussed the Adam God theory recently?
 

What about evolution?

We need to get Dan over here. I know he has less time now. But even when he did have time he was constantly korihored.

agreed
 

He is insightful.

are you serious about discussing this topic?

Any thoughtful discussion
 

or thoughtless as long as it's not too tasteless, is fair game.

I just threw that one out there because it's an attention getter.

what exactly is the discussion?

This topic has never greatly grabbed my attention.

A different thing, that is not terribly important, but nonetheless is interesting to me is the scientific-view of religion.

Occasionally I have asked a person, would you be suprised if Jesus returned in a spaceship? Or would it be heresy to suggest that Jesus might employ far advanced technology?

This doesn't affect my day-to-day religious practice, but it's interesting how the worlds of science and religion connect. And I think Mormonism in some ways is the closest to that nexus in its theology.

Reminds me of the movie "Contact."

Technology
 

A God would use a mastery of the elements, and a God's technology would be efficient, sort of akin to the Liahona, don't you think?

Fascinating, but whether "technology" per se would be used is unknowable at this point in time.

I imagine Jesus would not need a spaceship having mastered the space-time contiuum by mastery still yet of infinite dimensions.

I mean the Liahona is a good example. For all we know the Liahona could have been a Casio digital watch or a PDA. Clearly God gave them some sort of advanced technology. It's funny how we eschew technology and magic, yet the idea of "spiritual power" is something we consider different.

Notice how Mormon mysticism
 

is dead now.

At one point, we saw quite a bit, now, being more "worldly" it seems mysticism in Mormonism is dead.
