Dave, if I am not mistaken, it is a mormon belief that the mormon god was once a man (from Kolob) who was a created being (if not as a man, at least created as a spirit). Yet, in the PoGP (one of your standard works consisting of revelation to JS, right?) I find the following, which appears to say that the mormon god had no beginning ("without beginning of days"):

MOS 1:3 And God spake unto Moses, saying: Behold, I am the Lord God Almighty, and Endless is my name; for I am without beginning of days or end of years; and is not this endless?

Now, how is it that the mormon god had a beginning, yet is "without beginning of days"?
