Scholar details 'striking' parallels between Book of Mormon and ancient civilization

Since 1955, John L. Sorenson has been exploring the relationship between the Book of Mormon and the anthropology of Mesoamerica (southern Mexico and northern Central America). Since the publication of his 1985 book, "An Ancient American Setting for the Book of Mormon," he has been regarded as arguably the leading exponent for the theory that the book's narrative took place within a limited geographic setting. This contrasts with the traditional understanding of many LDS Church members over the years that the events described in the book transpired throughout North and South America.

LDS politician Mia Love breaks the GOP mold, but can she win?

If Mia Love hadn’t been born 36 years ago to a pair of near-penniless Haitian immigrants, she might have been invented in a laboratory by scheming Republican scientists. A small-town Utah mayor and big-time congressional hopeful, Love is conservative, black and Mormon -- not your typical candidate ingredients, but that makes her profile all the more compelling in a year when the nation's first black president is seeking reelection against a candidate bidding to become the nation's first Mormon chief executive.
