A Middle-Eastern Temple Uncovered in America in 1930

-

Just stumbled on this and thought it was interesting. In 1930, the Tennesse Authority found an "entire building" within a Hopewell mound while building a dam. After bringing in an Egyptologist, it was determined to be a middle eastern temple.


Of course, don't expect to see the building. The video doesn't explain what happened to it. Maybe it got flooded with the water.

As good as the Smithsonian and other scientific institutions may be, many of the scientists involved are equally good at covering up, discrediting, hiding, and destroying any potential evidence which may hurt, discredit, or disprove their theories.

I read a comment on a Twitter feed which I found interesting. I don't remember the exact quote, but it was something to the effect of, how many scientists actually make new discoveries?

I know there are scientists who make new discoveries, but when you think about it, there are a lot of discoveries which are made by either non-scientists or amateur scientists.

Coming Total Solar Eclipses in 2017 and 2024 for North America

The next two total solar eclipses that will pass over North America will occur August 21, 2017, and April 8, 2024. It's interesting to see the paths these eclipses will take. Aug 21, 2017 Solar Eclipse Map April 8, 2024 Solar Eclipse Map I realize the two eclipses are about 6 years and 8 months (nearly 7 years) apart, but my curiosity had to see where they would cross. Overlaid on top of each other, the crossing point is a lake between Pomona and Makanda, Illinois  (it's a bit blurry). While probably insignificant, when looking at the maps I noticed how close the Mississippi river is to this point. So, I had to do some research about the New Madrid fault, and was a little surprised about an apparent correlation between the quake damage map and the crossing point of the next two solar eclipses. We know that the sun has an effect on the production of large earthquakes. I'm just guessing, but the moon might have a minor effec

Stretched-forth Necks

Recently I was reading in 2 Nephi chapter 13, one of the Isaiah chapters. I won't discuss all the verses, but one in particular stood out, verse 16: "Moreover, the Lord saith: Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched-forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet." It is my understanding that when the scriptures refer to a specific people "of Zion," in this case "daughters of Zion," it is more in reference to members of the Church. It can certainly apply to people in a broader sense as well. But in a general sense, Zion is in reference to the land of America (more particularly North America) and Jerusalem refers to the land of Israel. So, "daughters of Zion" could refer to both members of the Church and those who live in America. Before I get into an impression/thought I had regarding verse 16, we need to define a few words. Too often we think we know what a

Jacob 5 - Who is the Lord of the Vineyard? It may not be who you think.

-
This post was last updated, 6 October 2018. --------------------------------------------------- In the Book of Mormon, in chapter 5 of the book of Jacob ( Jacob 5 ), there is a fascinating allegory about an olive tree in a vineyard. As the olive tree gets older, branches start withering away and it looks like the tree is dying. The Lord (also called the master) of the vineyard prunes and nourishes the tree, but only a few "young and tender branches" (v. 6) grow, while the main part starts dying.  The Lord of the vineyard tells his servant to graft in some branches from a wild olive tree, in the hopes that it can strengthen the roots. The the servant is directed to "watch the tree, and nourish it" (v 12) while he takes the "young and tender branches (v. 8) and grafts them into other places throughout the vineyard. I won't go through the entire allegory, at least not at this point. First let's establish some things. First, the Earth is the
