Did Christ appear to other nations? (Jesus, Moses, Earth, Messiah)

[Storm Moon]

Well, I think the question would be, How many nations were there at the time and what were they?

This is a joke. Set aside baseless apologetics and mindless speculation and you're left with ... nothing. The evidence that 'Christ appeared to other nations' is of precisely the same probative quality as the evidence that Nessie was spotted at Walgreens.

Don't forget the all-time favorite Elvis sightings too.

I see you present yourself as a naturalist. I am not exactly sure of what that means to you. But, I will assume it is inline with my understanding of natural science.

What do you do with all the excursions into the realm of Intelligent design brought about by floks like Depok Chopra, Candace Pert, Fritjof and others?

Just curious. BenJosh

The workings of the human body in its "intelligent cells" as presented in Candace Pert's "Molecules of Emotion"

I am not going to convince you against your will.

If you want it you have to get it the Old Fashioned way. . . . . you must earn it.

For the same reason it's hard for Non-Christians to believe it. Because there's simply no plausible evidence whatsoever that Native Americans (a) are of Jewish descent or (b) were ever visited by Jesus.

Why would Mormons expect the general public to accept the fantastic historical claims of their founder?

Because people will belive anything.

He came in the flesh to neither Paul (Saul) nor to John the Divine. He came in visions, not flesh, and that is a subjective appearance. Jesus came in the flesh but once to this earth. Every thousand years or so His Spirit returns in a different vessel and the Christ comes again.
