You may have misinterpreted my expression. I was expressing surprise that you intend to find enough writings from before AD 100 to put together any kind of thesis. I can only think of two Christian writings that can be at all accurately dated from that time period - Clement and Hermas. If you intend to find any theology in there related to LDS then I say to you Good luck! I have read them at length and can find evidence to support much in the way of baptism for the dead and other doctrines of ours, but then again I don't know what exactly you're searching for.
