Moratorium

 

We are calling upon the LDS Church, and any other group claiming to have a "Book of Mormon geography neutral" position to STOP endorsing countries south of the United States.

 

The LDS Church has been funding research contrary to its "neutral" position since 1948,1,2 and has been endorsing said countries through its printed materials since before then.

 

To demonstrate its neutrality, we suggest a MORATORIUM on all things south of the United States for a period equal to the time given - 65 years, and equal man hours, finances, BYU resources, etc. allotted to produce equal number of films, images, excavations and research papers of where the plates came forth, extending out.
