Assuming it was relatively convenient to visit (i.e. you aren't driving across the country just for it.)

Sure, Church History is amusing going from within to out.

Funny seeing this thread now, since a few weeks ago I mapped out a hypothetical cross-country road trip for LDS religious and historical sites that I shared with my ex-Mormon friend.



Vermont is where both Smith and Young were born, Sacred Grove is where Smith allegedly had his vision, other parts of New York and Pennsylvania are where the BoM was translated, rewritten, and then published, the church first became formally established in Kirtland, Zion's "center piece" in Independence, the area around Jameson where Adam-ondi-Ahman is, Nauvoo where Mormons pretty much took over and elected Smith mayor, Carthage where he died at a prison riot he instigated, and then the neighborhood of Florence, Omaha which is where Young took over and the Mormons settled after Smith's death, and then of course, Salt Lake City.

I pass by Young's birthplace semi-frequently because it's on one of the prettier routes from where I live to where my parents live and vice versa. Today it's an unexceptional, but nice, residential area in a small and relatively non-touristy hill town in Windham County, the sort of place where there were a ton of Trump yard signs in 2020 but Biden ended up winning by election-type-event margins anyway.

There was no Adam and Eve because blks were the first people it was Pharoahs and Hebrew Queens and Arabs that created the Human race and Pharoahs were light skinned blks

There is no way from Darwin you can get a blk  or dark bean from two white ones but you can get an albino Bean from two black beans. Just like squirrel, and many mammals and rats, the mutation is albino but they are blk

Sorry to let you know and the Celts came after the Egyptian empire

The albino mouse, or blk and white skunk or the albino rabbit all rodents is proof that two blk races create albino not two white races create a blk race


Look at all the animals, they all start out as Blk not white

Especially the chimpanzee and how we have soul or Irish in us due to dwarfism, is that the Junior chimp, chromosome breaks from 48 to 46 and in dwarfism something breaks with the chromosome

I could, and more easily than just about anybody else on this forum - it’s only three counties away. But I don’t know why I would. Do they give tours?

Update: I was passing through the area and I made a stop at Adam-ondi-Ahman. Neat place with an impressive view.

it's not too far off the route I take to STL/southern IL and I've always wanted to drive through Skidmore too (if you know, you know).  I may take an alternate way next time down (which should be in the next month or so).


and on preview I did the Google Maps of the new route and it adds an hour and a half somehow, so yeah, that's not going to happen.

Would love to. I’ve been to Hill Cumorah and the Sacred Grove, both neat experiences.
