Anyone know of any descendents of the Baneemyites in Iowa? Just when I thought I knew of all the breakoffs.

You know, there's a "revelator" or prophet around every corner and behind every bush.....like ticks on a hound. :|

He's a reincarnated Ephraim and his code name in the D & C was Baneemy?
Doctrine and Covenants 102:8b (Community of Christ ed.). In the LDS Church edition of the Doctrine and Covenants, the passage is found in 105:27; however, the modern LDS version has replaced the code names "Barauk Ale" with "Joseph Smith, Jun." and "Baneemy" with "mine elders" in harmony with early manuscript sources. It is thought that "Baneemy" may have originally had reference to Lyman Wight.

As well as stimulating our thirst. Even now I am craving a "Barauk Ale" and side shot of "Baneemy".
Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

There used to be a member of NOM who called himself Baneemy. Now I know where that came from.
