Amlici is Obama!

Interesting stuff I noticed while reading in BoM in Alma ch.2 today. Just put Obama in place of Amlici in these versus. It writes itself.

1 And it came to pass in the commencement of the *fifth year of their reign there began to be a contention among the people; for a certain aman, being called Amlici, he being a very cunning man, yea, a wise man as to the wisdom of the world, he being after the order of the man that slew bGideon by the sword, who was executed according to the law—
2 Now this Amlici had, by his cunning, adrawn away much people after him; even so much that they began to be very powerful; and they began to endeavor to establish Amlici to be a king over the people.
3 Now this was alarming to the people of the church, and also to all those who had not been drawn away after the persuasions of Amlici; for they knew that according to their law that such things must be established by the avoice of the people.
4 Therefore, if it were possible that Amlici should gain the voice of the people, he, being a wicked man, would adeprive them of their rights and privileges of the church; for it was his intent to destroy the church of God.

hmmmmmm!

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck.......

ShawnC, that's a very good comparison! It works for me.

You could be right. I have said for some time that if you change the names and places in the BofM, you have todays news.

Thanks for that observation.

Types and shadows all over the place - sometimes more difficult than a linear timeline - although that works as well and I would say we're in the Samuel the Lamenite phase of our destruction.
