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"?
