AP correspondent Norman Hall reports: Navajo Woman Killed

Regardless of the originating culture, folklore is replete with tales of shape-shifting monstrosities and individuals morphing into werewolves or other half-man, half-beast creatures. But what about the more contemporary narratives? Is there more to it than folklore? In this episode, we look at these legendary beings and ponder Navajo encounters, the enigmatic stories surrounding Tasmania's thylacine, and even nocturnal encounters with gargoyle women in black. Our exploration takes us into the secretive realms of cults dedicated to summoning monsters, the occult dealings involving British intelligence agencies, shape-shifting witch cats, and a plethora of other intriguing encounters. For our Plus+ members, we investigate the controversial linguistic origins of the concept of the Aryans and explore their migration into the cradle of civilization in India, from which their influence radiated to the far reaches of the globe. We examine the intriguing connections between enigmatic stone towers, celestial constellations, and hear the theories of a man deeply fixated on phallus energies.

Dr Andrew Manns is a historian and the creator behind The Thinker's Garden, a blog specialising in overlooked history. As editor, he has written and published a variety of historiettes on little-known Bohemians, occultists, and mystics, such as the “Los Angeles Noah” (Reverend J.E. Lewis), Lady Walburga Paget, and Baron Seymour Kirkup. Today takes us through his research into the little known folklore and occult history of the  Auvergne a little-known historic province in central France. Which he has dubbed the ‘Transylvania of France'. In the Plus show we get into the legends of Lake Pavin (the storm-raising lake). An interesting angle on the lost children plane crash from Colombia story from earlier in the year. And Andrew tells us about the unique healing tradition of the “Guerisseurs” which is absolutely fascinating. Andrew wraps up with an interesting note on the belief in the area that fairies can be seen at a certain high altitude.

Once upon a time, this sweet family wanted to upgrade their house to a little larger house. They had been working toward this goal for a long time. They prayed to Heavenly Father to help them find the right house. He told them it was in Utah! Whaaaat!?! Yes. So this sweet family moved from Mesa, Arizona, to Utah. And they have found peace and blessings along the way. Amy Fa'atoafe has been trying to live where Heavenly Father can use her as a blessing to others. She has served in various social service positions. She sees how the blessing of the Gospel has kept her safe and provided answers when she has needed it. She is aware of the gifts that Heavenly Father has given her, and by knowing her gifts, she is able in turn to bless others. She has learned that doing right eventually has its reward. I'm so grateful for Amy's living testimony.

The Tuaregs of Niger and Buryat of Siberia, like the Navajo of the US Southwest, have had their territories usurped and destroyed by uranium mining for the nuclear-industrial complex, and it makes little difference from their perspective whether the extractivist bosses were French, Russian or American. While the Great Powers wage a neo-colonial game for control of this strategic resource, the indigenous peoples on the ground pay with their lands and lives—and are fighting back for autonomy or outright independence, and ecological and cultural survival.

At first officials identified Navajo, Apache, and other Arizona tribal members as among those who were victims of a massive Medicaid fraud scam. Now tribes in Montana, North and South Dakota, and other states are taking stock of their members who were also caught up in the fake substance abuse treatment con that reaches into the hundreds of millions of dollars. The Blackfeet Nation declared an emergency to help gain resources to repair the fallout for its citizens. We'll find out the latest on the efforts to help the people who were harmed and hold those responsible accountable. GUESTS Reva Stewart (Diné), grassroots advocate with the #StolenPeopleStolenBenefits campaign  Jeri Long (Diné), Native American advocate and director of business development at Milestone Recovery  Melissa Lonebear (Northern Cheyenne), member of the Northern Cheyenne Tribal Council Shelly Hall (Blackfeet), member of the Blackfeet Tribe Business Council

Sky is a son, a brother, a spouse, a father. He talks about each of these roles with so much love and devotion. In all, he talks with gratitude. I love how we can talk about doctrine and conjecture with reason. I love how we could talk about vision. Sky has been blessed with a willing heart. He recognizes that as he learns about what is in store for those he loves, he is also tasting what Heavenly Father has in store for him. He talks of his daughter's future, of his brother's destiny, and of the things he knows he can learn from his grandparents and other ancestors. And we talk about not always fitting in with others, but always fitting in with the Lord and His plan for us. 

Tiokasin is joined by two guests for the full hour. Hataałiinez Wheeler is a very modern kind of crooner: a pensive, deep-voiced troubadour whose serene surf-country songs tap into the hope and despondency of a new generation. The music he makes as Hataałii — a Navajo term that means “to sing,” a fitting diminutive of his given name — is at turns witty and world-weary, sunny but endearingly solipsistic. Albert Haskie is a software developer from the Navajo Nation. He is the creator of the app Adoone'é. Serving as the lead developer in the project, Albert has strived to uphold his culture and traditions as a Navajo/Diné. It is his deep-rooted belief that everyone should have access to the resources that preserve and celebrate their Navajo/Diné heritage. Albert finds great joy in tackling Navajo/Diné language and culture preservation in the 21st century. With Adoone'é he aims to contribute to his community and empower others to do the same. Albert says that “Together, we can foster a world where Navajo/Diné individuals can achieve fluency in the Navajo/Diné language.” Read.

Christopher joins us to share his story as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ (otherwise known as the Mormon Church) and to give some fascinating insight into his mission. Christopher talks about his formative years in the church and how he came across anti-Mormon material on YouTube very early in his life. He quickly learned some things that made him truly question his beliefs. But with a firm desire to serve a mission, he continued going to church and was called to serve in Farmington, New Mexico, much of which was on an Indian Reservation. He talks about his experience with the Navajo people -- their goodness, their light, and their belief in spirituality. Christopher's experience is one-of-a-kind and we're so grateful to have learned from him!!

Her fascinating new book, Beneath a Peaceful Moon, is part of Barbour Publishing's Heroines of WWII series, and looks at the role of Native Americans in winning WWII, both as spies and as code talkers. We chat about Debby's visit to Arizona to do research, how much Debby, a Native American herself, knows of the Navajo and Yakima languages, and how she went above and beyond (really above and beyond!) in her research. Patrons will get to hear about some of the sad things that happened to Native Americans even after the war, including to Debby's own family, and the repercussions that are still being felt today. Beneath a Peaceful Moon by Debby Lee Mary Wishram, an orphaned Yakima tribal member, aches for her brother who suffers in a POW camp in the Philippine Islands and her Japanese friends who languish in a relocation center. Determined to end the war by any means necessary, she employs her language skills to become a spy. Leaving Camp Pendleton for the South Pacific, she faces escalating threats of peril to help bring her loved ones home. John Painted Horse, a proud Navajo, struggles with the loss of his father who died in WWI for a country that didn't consider him a United States citizen. Though his home state doesn't offer him the right to vote, he joins the Code Talker program at Camp Pendleton. Thrust into mounting danger in the South Pacific, he hopes to bring long overdue recognition and honor to his people, no matter the cost. Will these two wounded souls find healing from their past traumas and a deeper relationship with God, before it's too late? Or will they lose their chance at love, and everything they hold dear?Get your copy of Beneath a Peaceful Moon by Debby Lee.Debby Lee, a member of the Yakama tribe, started writing as a child but never forgets home, the cozy town of Toledo, Washington, and her Native American roots. A former president of the Olympia chapter of Romance Writers of America, Debby enjoys participating in both RWA and the American Christian Fiction Writers. Her full length title, Beneath a Peaceful Moon, releases June 1, 2023, with Barbour Publishing. She also has six novella collections with Barbour.

She wishes she could run barefoot all year long and often does when weather permits. During football season, she cheers on the Seattle Seahawks with other devoted fans. She's also filled with wanderlust and dreams of traveling the world.Visit Debby's website.

The FBI announced that they have compiled a list of names of missing Native Americans in New Mexico and the Navajo nation and that list contains 170 names. The FBI has also said that they are going to continually update it as new information becomes available. In what seems to be a long time coming, hopefully the people who have lost loved ones will be provided answers.(commercial at 10:18)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/fbi-releases-list-of-170-missing-native-americans/ar-AAZZL94?ocid=anaheim-ntp-feeds&cvid=bb702e0f2edb442fb70be1c4a3ae5ebdThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5080327/advertisement

Growing up where I did, there were just a few other Navajos around. Joleen's family was one. I wanted to be like Joleen from the time I met her. She has always chosen to be kind, to love people, and to let the Light of Christ radiate from her. She's a single mother now, but that hasn't held her back. She has worked hard to be able to provide for her daughters. She has worked hard to get a degree and get a stable job. She has worked hard at teaching her daughters to live the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I love her stories of her grandparents. One of her super fans asked me to interview her. I'm so glad it was the right time to do it. As I listened, my heart was happy, was excited, was nervous, was pondering, and was sorrowful. But my heart always swung back around to joy as she pointed out the great many blessings and miracles that she is able to stand and witness of--especially that of our relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Diné rapper Def-i is among the big winners at this month's International Indigenous Hip-Hop Awards in Vancouver, B.C. Gary Paul Davis aka Litefoot is one of the OGs of Native hip-hop, winning a handful of Native American Music Awards.

GUESTS Litefoot (Cherokee), rapper, filmmaker, and actor Def-i (Diné), hip-hop artist JB The First Lady (Nuxalk and Onondaga), mother, hip-hop artist, fashion designer SABA (Navajo and Jemez Pueblo), graffiti artist and co-owner of Arrowsoul Trading Post

Yue Begay, a Navajo transgender woman, shared her inspiring journey and insights as we explored the historical significance of the Two Spirit identity within Native tribes. We delved into the importance of educating businesses and corporations about this unique aspect of Native culture. It was a powerful and enlightening conversation that I'm excited to share with you all. Show Notes www.powwows.com/powwowlife91 Find a Pow Wow Near You https://www.powwows.com/find-a-pow-wow-near-you/ Key Takeaways from the episode: Two Spirit Identity is a Bridge: The term "Two Spirit" was created by Native American elders in the 1990s to replace a derogatory term used by colonizers. It serves as a positive and empowering way to reclaim Native LGBTQ+ culture. Two Spirit individuals serve as a bridge between the LGBTQ+ community and the larger Native American community, bringing unique perspectives and insights. Resurgence of Native Culture: Yue discussed how there has been a resurgence in individuals connecting with their Native culture, possibly due to COVID and social media. People are rediscovering their Native language, participating in traditional activities like beadwork, and embracing native storytelling through TV and books. This resurgence is fostering a stronger bond with their culture and traditions. Impactful Advocacy and Consultancy: Yue Begay's work as a program consultant and graphic artist in the public health field highlights the importance of incorporating Two Spirit people, transgender individuals, and Native people into various initiatives. Their role involves assessing intentions, providing guidance on infrastructure, addressing issues like homophobia and transphobia, and ensuring community accountability. Their efforts contribute to making organizations more inclusive and understanding.

Retirement doesn't just mean spending your days playing dominoes at the senior center. A lot of Native elders are taking up second careers or at least new part time jobs after retiring. A 2022 survey by U.S. News and World Report found the percentage of workers over age 62 has increased significantly in the past ten years. Inflation is part of the reason. So is the desire for meaningful work. From per caps to the availability of senior housing, Native workers considering retirement have specific concerns when it comes to winding down their working years. GUESTS Jim Cordry (Rosebud Sioux), retired federal employee and investment advisor for 21 years   Larry Curley (Navajo), executive director of the National Indian Council on Aging   Leilani Wilson Walkush (Tlingit), chief compliance officer for Breakwater Investment Group, LLC

Regeneration is a common theme these days. But does it go far enough? What of the Spirit, bio-cosmology, connection to the land, to our good hearts, and our original ancestral ways? Indigenous Regenerative Intelligence points to this reunification of that which has become separated through colonization, an extractive economy and a reductionist, industrial mindset, focused on production, self-interest and consumerism. Native cosmology connects us to the land and focuses our energy; by embodying it, we naturally work with the environment from a place of sensitivity, cooperation and understanding from the heart. James Skeet, Executive Director of Covenant Pathways and Spirit Farm, joins us to share from his Navajo (Diné) perspective the depths of his own Indigenous Regenerative Intelligence and remind us why we must all embody an organic, indigenous mindset where all things are sacred. Our future depends upon us personally and collectively returning to and remembering our original, indigenous regenerative intelligence in order to assist Mother Earth in becoming balanced once again. What has been despoiled and degraded can be transformed, revitalized, and renewed as we collaborate and cooperate for common purpose and once again live in service to Nature and the continuance of life itself.

Bobby “Dues” Wilson is a Sisseton-Wahpeton Dakota artist, dad, and comedian based in Phoenix, Arizona. Bobby was born and raised in the Twin Cities, back when you could still smoke at Ember's Family Restaurant. Bobby's family bounced around motels, apartments, Powwows and shelters through his childhood but there's an olde saying amongst the Siouxan nations: shit happens. Wilson attended the Creative Arts High School where his interests in painting and poetry were heavily encouraged. He participated in youth art programs COMPAS arts in St. Paul, then rode the 16 (94 if you're cashy) to Minneapolis where he trained mural painting like a champ under Roger and Peyton at Juxtaposition Arts. He painted several murals around the Twin Cities and enough graffiti to catch a couple cases. His visual art work can still be seen at the Minnesota Historical Society (I think) and the Chippewa Tribes building on Franklin.  After some heavy life changes that we won't get into it here (go watch Smoke Signals or something), Bobby found himself alongside the 1491s comedy troupe, traveling all accrosst Indian Country making fun of himself for money. Now Bobby works as a writer/producer on television series like Rutherford Falls, Echo (some MCU stuff?), and the Peabody award winning series, Reservation Dogs. He lives with his family, surrounded by the O'odham nations and urban Navajos who make really good tortillas! Did you know O'odham homies call frybread, “popovers?!” What even is that?!

Nina Swidler and Mike Yeatts are long-time archeologists working with the tribes around the American Southwest. They sit down with Brian to chat about Grand Canyon research efforts, their work with the Hopi and Navajo tribes, and more! Enjoy Nina and Mike!

Mylo Fowler is a famous photographer. I wish we had time to hear more of his story. But I want you to hear how gratitude and stewardship led to more light in his life. Light now directs his life. Light leads his life through photography as well as his spiritual growth. Light. Don't block the light. Pay your tithing so heaven can shine its light down. Listen to the Spirit because you'll find even more light. So good! I love his relationship with his family, both blood and "adoptive." He's been blessed with so many people who opened their arms to him and who loved him just because that's what they do. I, too, want to be like that. Those people have shown him what it means to "belong." We belong together in the House of Israel.

This week's podcast is a bit of a sad one as we say goodbye to longtime host of New Mexico in Focus, Gene Grant. Lou DiVizio opens the show talking about Gene's impact on the station and the community over his 18 years on the program. Gene's thoughtful and balanced approach to issues of the day made NMiF go-to watching for a generation of viewers. About 27 minutes into the show, Gene speaks with KUNM Radio's Nash Jones about the impact he's made. But before that, Lou runs through headlines from around the state, including information on a new federal lawsuit blaming the state's Children Youth and Families Department for a 7-year-old girl's death. Then, New Mexico in Focus Correspondent Antonia Gonzales speaks with a Navajo anti-nuclear activist about the deadly, toxic legacy of nuclear testing in our state, and the pain and damage she feels was left out of the new film, 'Oppenheimer.'

Sorry about the schedule slippage, but we've got just the home remedy. It's the perfect mixture of a season finale and a the return of a longtime guest! That's right, Dyllan has returned to help us wrap up our season by chatting all about Buffalo Dreams. A film none of us really wanted to touch, but here we are. So why don't you journey along with us to weigh-in on the vicious land feud between some white mountain bikers and the Native Americans whose land these “dirtheads” continually trespass on. Luckily, I think that if history any indication, this thing will work out with no issues on either side. Luke shares the younger sibling experience and pays for a character's actions. Emma can't stand Scout's muteness and shares her weight loss secrets.   Dyllan meets his old nemesis once again.

Cases of the sexually transmitted bacterial infection syphilis are surging around the globe. In the U.S., Native Americans have the highest rates of syphilis than any other group. So much so, that the Indian Health Service is urging tribal leaders and health facilities that work with Native populations to institute a series of measures to fight the spread of the disease. We'll explore why syphilis, that was once on decline, is making a dramatic comeback and what health officials are doing to fight it. GUESTS Dr. Loretta Christensen (Navajo), chief medical officer for the Indian Health Service Jessica Leston (Tsimshian), HIV and STI clinical programs director at the Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board Dr. Meghan O'Connell (citizen of the Cherokee Nation), chief public health officer for the Great Plains Tribal Leaders Health Board

Whether they're strays or have attentive caretakers, the dogs that occupy reservations have a bad reputation. Advocates for rez dogs are working on a number of fronts to turn that around. Mindful of the occasional safety issue, advocates for dogs are organizing veterinarian visits, spay, neuter clinics, and even dog shows, all as a way to prevent more drastic measures and to promote safer environments.

It was time to take a look at AMC TV's latest sleeper hit which was a neat word of mouth cable TV ratings surprise. And since I couldn't take on all this diverse mystery, Navajo themes, writing, casting and spectacular camerawork all by myself, I brought on the co-star of the show, Amelia Rico (who plays the suspicious Navajo witch character, Ada Growing Thunder)!   We get to further detail the filming locations, cast's interpretation of the beloved book characters and other predictions on the second season (you guys are lucky as by the time this hit, the 2nd season has just hit in July of 2023!).                         MAIN LINKS:  LinkTree: https://linktr.ee/JURSPodcast Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/JackedUpReviewShow/ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2452329545040913 Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackedUpReview  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacked_up_podcast/          SHOW LINKS: YouTube: https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCIyMawFPgvOpOUhKcQo4eQQ   iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-the-jacked-up-review-show-59422651/   Podbean: https://jackedupreviewshow.podbean.com   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7Eg8w0DNympD6SQXSj1X3M   Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-jacked-up-review-show-podcast/id1494236218   RadioPublic: https://radiopublic.com/the-jacked-up-review-show-We4VjE   Overcast: https://overcast.fm/itunes1494236218/the-jacked-up-review-show-podcast   Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy9hNDYyOTdjL3BvZGNhc3QvcnNz   Anchor:  https://anchor.fm/s/a46297c/podcast/rss   PocketCasts: https://pca.st/0ncd5qp4   CastBox:  https://castbox.fm/channel/The-Jacked-Up-Review-Show-Podcast-id2591222        

Gain an important perspective about the foods that we have available and how we can take a stand for our health, our planet, and our freedom, through what we choose to put on our plates. It is essential that we all gain understanding about Navajo history, and their practices with growing and preparing food in a way that is in harmony with the land. What an honor to get to share this enlightening conversation. I hope it helps people think twice about where their food comes from, and how they can gain sovereignty through food choices.

On this edition of Your Call, we'll discuss the 5-4 Supreme Court ruling that a 1868 treaty with the Navajo Nation does not require the US government to secure water access for the tribe. 48% of tribal homes do not have access to reliable water sources, clean drinking water, or basic sanitation, and Native households are 19 times more likely than white households to lack indoor plumbing, according to the Tribal Clean Water Initiative. More than 150 years after the country's largest tribe signed treaties recognizing its sovereignty, almost a third of the over 170,000 people who live on the Navajo reservation do not have access to reliable drinking water, according to the tribe. How will tribes continue to fight for water rights after this ruling?

If you have any impression of LBJ Vice President Hubert Humphrey, it might be that of an establishment politician who defended an unpopular war in Vietnam and led the Democratic Party to defeat in 1968. But writer Samuel Freedman says the young Hubert Humphrey was a man of true principle and rare talent, fighting bigotry as mayor of Minneapolis, and waging a courageous battle to get the party to embrace civil rights. Freedman's book is Into the Bright Sunshine.John Powers reviews the new season of the Navajo police drama Dark Winds.

Welcome back to another episode of Aquarium Drunkard Transmissions, so glad to have you with us. A major inspiration for us in the podcast zone is media theorist Douglas Rushkoff, host of the Team Human podcast. As our digital age gets stranger, more fractured, and harder to parse, we find his humanist, consciousness-centered approach very helpful. One of the things he's known for saying is “Look for the others”—the others who grok your worldview, whose enthusiasms and obsessions mirror your own. And no doubt about it, our guest this week, Andy Zax, feels very much like one of the others. Zax is a lifelong music devotee, and he's worked on pretty much every side of the music business, writing copy and liner notes, producing records, working with labels like Rhino, and generally helping to shine a light on figures like Judee Sill, David Axelrod, Talking Heads, and many more. In 2019, he oversaw the massive Woodstock 50th anniversary project, restoring virtually all the audio associated with the historic concert. For Zax, all of this is something of a holy calling, and its led him to discoveries in unexpected places, like when he found an unreleased recording by electronic pioneer Mort Garson—known these days for the hippest ever music for plants to grow by LP Plantasia—nested in the archive of spoken word artist Rod McKuen. And not just any recording: we're talking “Journey to the Moon,” music Garson composed for the live CBS News broadcast of the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969. That recording sees release this week via Sacred Bones' Journey To the Moon and Beyond, released on Friday, July 21. Over the course of his long chat, we riff on the value of archived music, music streaming and music technology, audio quality, the merits of keeping your records unorganized, the haunting quality of Leonard Nimoy's late ‘60s studio albums, and much more.  Transmissions is part of the Talkhouse Podcast network, check out Talkhouse for more great reading and listening. Next week on Transmissions? 20-year-old Navajo singer/songwriter Hataałii joins us to discuss his label debut and what music has meant to him growing up. Until then, this Transmission is concluded.  For heads, by heads. Aquarium Drunkard is powered by its patrons.

As I was visiting with Mario Platero, I was struck by his great humility. Humility doesn't always mean shy. In fact, it definitely doesn't. It means knowing that the blessings we have come from hard work, from love of and for others, and from Heavenly Father. Mario talks about how his callings, both at church and in his career, have blessed him. One of my favorite things is that he said that he loves his wife even more because of serving as a bishop. Yah, I love that. Another thing I love is that he calls The Book of Mormon and anchor in his life. In his humility, he also shares that he doesn't know everything--which means he relies on faith. At the end of the conversation, I love his advice for making decisions. Listen and hear what he has to say!

This is a special Real Science Radio program. * Bill Keller, Gregg Jackson & Bob Enyart: These three Christian activists present some of the uglier aspects of Mitt Romney's Mormonism including the cult's longtime claim, as reiterated by Marion Romney at the LDS General Conference, that Mormonism uniquely teaches that God the Father was once a man who grew up on a planet similar to Earth. Weird and heretical. * God the Father was Once a Man said Brigham Young: "The idea that the Lord our God is not a personage of tabernacle [body] is entirely a mistaken notion. He was once a man. Brother Kimball quoted a saying of Joseph [Smith] the Prophet, that he would not worship a God who had not a Father... He [God] once possessed a body, as we now do..." -President & Prophet Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, Vol. 9 see exmormon.org * More Brigham Young: "...the Father of Heights... Yes, he was once a man like you and I are and was once on an earth like this, passed through the ordeal you and I pass through. He had his father and his mother and he has been exalted through his faithfulness, and he is become Lord of all. He is the God pertaining to this earth. He is our Father." -President & Prophet Brigham Young, 14 July 1861 see exmormon.org * Mormon Prophet and President Lorenzo Snow: "I had a direct revelation of this. ... If there ever was a thing revealed to man perfectly, clearly, so that there could be no doubt or dubiety, this was revealed to me, and it came in these words: "As man now is, God once was; as God now is, man may be." - President & Prophet Lorenzo R. Snow, Unchangeable Love of God see exmormon.org * Mitt Romney's Second Cousin Once Removed: "...like begets like [i.e., reproduction after its kind; an organism begets similar organisms] and that for the offspring to grow to the stature of his parent is a process infinitely repeated in nature. We can therefore understand that for a son of God to grow to the likeness of his Father in heaven is in harmony with natural law... This is the way it will be with spirit sons of God. They will grow up to be like their Father in heaven. Joseph [Smith] taught this obvious truth. As a matter of fact, he taught that through this process God himself attained perfection. From President Snow's understanding of the teachings of the Prophet on this doctrinal point, he coined the familiar couplet: "As man is, God once was; as God is, man may become." This teaching is peculiar to the [LDS] restored gospel of Jesus Christ." -Elder Marion G. Romney, General Conference, October 1964 see exmormon.org * Mormonism Falsely Claims that Indians are Jews: One of the central claims of the Book of Mormon is that American Indians, including Aztecs, Incas, Mayans, Navajos, etc., are Jews. This stunningly false teaching states that some Jews left Jerusalem on ship in 600 B.C. and built a great civilization in the Americas. Also wrongly, "The whole face of the land had become covered with buildings" (Mormon 1:7) including with “fine workmanship… in machinery, and also in iron and copper, and brass and steel, making all manner of tools” (Jarom 1:8; 2 Nephi 5:15) with “silks… oxen… cows… sheep… horses… donkeys… elephants…” (Ether 9:17-19) and "shipping and their building of ships, and of synagogues" and “swords… shields… head-plates… armor…” (Alma 43:18-19; Ether 15:15). None of this is true. * BEL Mormon Prediction: Regardless of their intensive ancestry effort (to identify and baptize the dead), and despite the extraordinary power of DNA to help identify ancestry, Bob Enyart predicts that the LDS Church will never fund a research project to prove the Jewish ancestry of American Indians. An African tribe, the Lembas, have long been believed to be descendants of the Jews, for they circumcise, keep the Sabbath and the dietary law, and in their DNA they possess the Jewish genetic marker, being perhaps the descendants of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. DNA research has begun to show and will continue to show that American Indians are not related to the Jews, nor closely related to any Semitic peoples or the descendants of Shem, but rather, that they are primarily of Hamitic stock, from Asian people, having migrated to the Americas not by saiiling the Atlantic but by crossing the Bering Straight. * No Cities, No Money: While the historical existence of hundreds of cities mentioned in the Bible has been confirmed (97% of them so far), not one of the 38 cities mentioned by Joseph Smith in the Book of Mormon have been found by any notable secular historian or archaeologist. And while every coin in the Bible has been found and documented, none of the monetary units described in the Book of Mormon have ever been found. * If You Fear Obama, You'll Vote for Romney; If You Fear God, You Won't: Don't fear Obama. Fear God, for that is the beginning of wisdom! Besides, Obama is Romney-lite. And because Romney has already implemented policies that are so destructive that Obama only dreams of accomplishing such things, therefore, a vote for Romney is a vote for Obama. Today's Resource: Meet the Apostle John. He was the youngest of the Twelve. And at the time of this writing, he's now one of the last remaining. If you were an eyewitness to Christ's earthly ministry, what would concern you decades after the resurrection? From the battles that John fought we can learn lessons that will help us as we ourselves fight for the truth and battle false teaching within the church. By looking at "the things that differ," we can know what details in John's three epistles applied to the circumcision believers of his day and which of his teachings apply directly to us. Available on this 4-DVD Video Set and also in audio on MP3-CD or MP3 Download.

Raised in Window Rock, Ariz. — the capital of the Navajo Nation — the artist known as Hataałii takes his moniker from the Navajo term “hatalii,” which translates to “singer.” His new album was  influenced by the late author Cormac McCarthy, whom he credits for showing him, in his words, “that the desert was more than just a void, but rather it was filled with spirit and that the people who truly live in the desert see things differently.”  Take a listen to the gritty sound of “Midnight Soldier,” a mix of garage rock and the psychedelic stylings of The Doors.
