Sadly the LDS I know don't believe in hollow earth stuff which is a shame because it sounds fun.

OK - here's one thing LDS are very guilty of - speculation.

I'm willing to list speculative weirdness that have done the LDS gossip rounds in the past:

1/ We will be able to fly after we are resurrected.
2/ The Lost Tribes live in the North Pole
3/ The Lost Tribes are floating around with the City Of Enoch
4/ The Holy Ghost Is Female

QCMBR -- I'm still waiting for you to refute any LDS doctrine I have espoused. Cat got your tongue, Brother?

Final note on Hollow earth stuff: I am seeing lots of history, weird and damning statements/actions made by church leaders. They have done their best to rewrite, obfuscate and lie about the past. Hollow earth may be somewhere in LDS doctrine/history. I just haven't seen it yet.

'I just haven't seen it yet'

Don't let that stop you.

Besides,the troubling church history, hell fire damnation, sons of perdition and brain damaging techniques of cults being used by "the church", you are welcome to examine what I said to Tula in this post: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/147677/1.ashx

From what I've learned, the LDS beliefs are more unorthodox (and thus perceived as wackier by the general Christian public) than JWs, but JWs rules and regulations are much more harmful and overbearing. I've always respected the fact that the LDS encourage higher education and that they don't kick people to the curb as easily as JWs do. That said, both are high-control religions, in my opinion. I would seriously caution anyone thinking about joining either of these two groups.

My best friend is a former mormon elder. I was surprised at how much the two religions have in common.

Welcome to JWD.
