Mormons in Space
I recall seeing a Mondo2000 article featuring a NASA memorandum regarding long-distance manned space travel. This memo recommended an iron-clad, all-encompassing belief-system to provide meaning, order and discipline to isolated astronauts and progeny during interstellar flights. The belief of choice: mormonism. Ishmael Simian

Interesting Section
I really liked the Mormonism section at this site. I almost became an LDS as a teen-ager. While I was in the Marines, I had many LDS friends who took me to church and explained some of their doctrines to me. It bothered me that the things they said on the street did not always agree with what they would say in church. I guess it must have been the stuff about "sacred underware" that really caused me to question their reality level. Great page, keep up the good work. Charles Pardue

What does the information about the LDS church have to do with UFO's?? Nothing. I am a Mormon myself and proud of it. I am also intrigued by the whole area 51 and Roswell stories and accounts. Not impressed with your whole site, it was very interesting until the negative Mormon "Literature" was offered. CRAIG

I found this page accidentally via Area 51/Ufomind and enjoyed it very much. As an exile from Utah I find Mormons very scary and wish to see more investigative research. What about all that genetic info hidden under the mountain and their old "State of Deseret" dreams; Masonic links? Liquid Jim

Mormonism: Shadow or Reality?
- Evangelical Christians Jerald and Sandra Tanner of Salt Lake City
have devoted their lives to publishing secret Mormon rituals,
exposing flaws in church texts and generally irritating the
local power structure. (Why do we feel a kinship?)
This is an empassioned, disorganized tract of 576 very dense pages,
consisting of reproduced church documents,
mimeographed essays, interviews, pictures, hieroglyphics,
endless analysis of scripture and thousands of passages
meaningfully underlined.
There is certainly a lot of material here the church
does not want published, including temple ceremonies,
temple clothing and secret oathes: Your challenge is to distill
that forbidden knowledge
from the massive body of words found here.
This self-published anti-Mormon tome has the same weight, size and density
as a volume of the Encyclopaedia Britannica. We have read only a couple of the chapters - No human could read it all.
- but we admire this book and its authors
for their single-minded mission.
If left on the coffee table, this book will provide YEARS of
entertaining reading.
