So, I’m a Youtuber, and I’ve been doing this series about the crackpot theories about people who discovered America before Columbus, and, well you’re gonna be in the penultimate episode! How good for you!
So, let me tell you about the claims that Semitic peoples came to America before Columbus, and yes, that includes the Mormon claim that one of those people was Jesus.
