I am fascinated with the art of the con, the hidden meaning of things, the invention and manufacture of religions etc. I use a very broad brush and definition of esoterics in my quest for answers that satisfy my own individual curiosity.
I recently did what I think is some neutral research on the red herring issue of Solomon Spaulding, the supposed original author of Joseph Smith’s best seller, the Book of Mormon.
The apparent death of the traditional W.A.S.P. (white anglo saxon protestant) gene pool for picking national American leaders is a worn out chemical formula, as evidenced by decline of that centuries old gene base and the example of the maxed-out inbred idiot Bush dynasty.
Americans are apparently searching for a new gene pool base of leadership, one that is not African in origin, female or capable of original thought or creative vision. Where better to look than the Mormons who are more concerned about their descent from the Prophet, like the Saudis with another Prophet, than with any real traditional dogmatic schtick or in touch political reality.
Suddenly you have Romney, Huntsman and even part time Rubio to lead us into the brave new world of non-thought and moronic national bliss of tomorrow.
