I think anyway, the only way to read scripture is to look for the personal Christ message in every story. The story is a means to an end. The story is meant to hide and reveal truth. The story itself is of no worth.

This hero worship attitude is one the reasons I have no desire to go on one of those mormon archeology trips to South America, and with awe, look at the sandal print that might have been made by Alma.
