SoSick, I'm checking out that website. We do believe, of course, that Jesus was born in Bethlehem...of course. A footnote I found states concerning Alma 7: 10 - Bethlehem, where Jesus was born, was a small village some six miles from the city of Jerusalem. It was within the area referred to by the people of that day as "the land of Jerusalem" (see Hugh Nibley, An Approach to the Book of Mormon, 101-2).

In the Book of Mormon its my assumption its also put that way to make the point to the people Alma is speaking to that they are from where He is born...(the area). But we don't think he was born literally in Jerusalem. We believe the Bible. Some wording of the Bible has definitely been changed...even you are quoting from a modern interpretation to make it easier to read, but nothing we believe is contrary to the same basic tenets. I have an appt. in a couple of hours that I need to get ready for and then will address the other points made.

One question? Do you believe in baptism by immersion? There are lots of differences with that one. No point other than that even with the same Biblical Jesus other Christian religions also believe in, many of his teachings have been altered. (We do believe in baptism by immersion, by the way).

P.S. - I am not basing my beliefs about the Book of Mormon on the movie mentioned....just find it interesting.
