This entire article is a synthesis of research written as an essay. The tone clearly indicates that it is written to advocate a position which consists of a novel theory regarding Mormonism. See WP:SYNTHESIS --Trödel 01:59, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. It might make for an interesting small section of an article about Mormonism, but as written it fails several policies. Andrew³²⁷ 02:00, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom and WP:NOTESSAY. Sources are largely self-published and a general lack of neutrality. hmssolent\^{Let's convene} _{My patrols} 02:29, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - It's a well enough done original essay, but it's an original essay. Publish something like this in a peer-reviewed journal and then check back in a year... Carrite (talk) 04:04, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as synthesis and a personal essay. JIP | Talk 04:53, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Would seem to violate a slew of policies. NickCT (talk) 13:07, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:NOTESSAY. Content seems to be largely a synthesis of original research, and therefore not acceptable as a Wikipedia article. Chri$topher 21:52, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
