Have you told them? I'm sure they'd be pleased to know it.

This was worthwhile reading. The framework of assumptions is significantly different from what I'm used to (even relative to McMurrin's summary of Mormon theological precepts....), so I'm not sure if Givens' more audacious statements are hopeful speculation, or if they can be considered to organically follow from more commonly accepted precepts in Mormonism?
