We are on remote coming to you from the Yucatán peninsula (or at least in the buffet line of a cruise ship off the coast of Cancun). In this episode, we discuss the ancient Mayan people as viewed through the eyes of Diego de Landa. We discuss his book from the 16th century and his belief on the origin of the Mayan people and their mode of baptism.
We also discuss the Church’s position on where the Book of Mormon took place. Based on exhaustive archeological research Richard believes that he has found Pahoran’s mother-in-law’s sublet apartment.
