James, sorry to be off message here or use this format but it seems your yahoo email is acting up...

Back in Nov,more or less, you had an article about the Mormons vs our church in terms of the "temple" in Rome and other issues regarding historical records (baptisms of the dead)

It is my understanding that the Angel Moroni is facing and pointing towards St Peter's square as opposed to Jerusalem???

Do you know how I can verify that...I know it is in the Roman suburbs (seen a google earth layout)

Lastly, and they are really mum on this (go figure right?) do you know about the 4 baptisms of the dead performed upon the late, great, soon to be St John Paul II???? I find that behavior appaling and repulsive, if true.

Funny thing is did you know that Nauvoo is predominantly a Catholic town/community, notwithstanding the historical significance of Joseph "Golden Plates" Smith!
