that?
Extraterrestrial Gods procreated Adam and Eve
Brigham Young, second president of the LDS church, states Genesis is an "idle tale" and that Adam and Eve were brought to earth from another planet.
Here let me state to all philosophers of every class upon the earth, When you tell me that father Adam was made as we make adobies from the earth, you tell me what I deem an idle tale. When you tell me that the beasts of the field were produced in that manner, you are speaking idle words devoid of meaning. There is no such thing in all the eternities where the Gods dwell. Mankind are here because they are the offspring of parents who were first brought here from another planet, and power was given them to propagate their species, and they were commanded to multiply and replenish the earth. http://journalofdiscourses.org/Vol_07/refJDvol7-44.html
Mormon founder and prophet is quoted as saying:
"Now regarding Adam: He came here from another planet, an immortalized Being, and brought his wife Eve with him, and by eating of the fruit of this earth, became subject to death and decay. . . was made mortal and subject to death." - Prophet Joseph Smith, Jr., as recorded by Anson Call and copied by Patriarch John Whitmer; online at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam–God_theory and http://www.ils.unc.edu/~unsworth/mormon/planets.html
Compare Genesis 2:7
And the LORD God formed man out of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

"Jesus' blood on the altar was the ultimate payment. He made us worthy permanently. When Jesus died on the cross the veil covering the Holy of Holies tore in half. The mercy seat lay exposed to mankind. There is no veil, anymore, between God and man. Jesus ripped it down. But Mormonism has hung up a new one." -Kathleen Baldwin
"When I was LDS (not that long
ago) I saw a lot of things that made me question my membership in the LDS
church, but I sure wouldn't admit it for a long time (not even to myself). I
just knew there had to be good explanations for all of those silly criticisms,
if I just looked in the right place...or prayed about it long enough. I was
wrong." - Former Mormon, Marsha Bette
