"I will tell you who the real fanatics are: they are they who adopt false principles and ideas as facts, and try to establish a superstructure upon a false foundation." ... "Who can tell us of the inhabitants of this little planet that shines of an evening, called the moon? When we view its face we may see what is termed "the man in the moon," and what some philosophers declare are the shadows of mountains. But these sayings are very vague, and amount to nothing; and when you inquire about the inhabitants of that sphere you find that the most learned are as ignorant in regard to them as the most ignorant of their fellows. So it is with regard to the inhabitants of the sun. Do you think it is inhabited? I rather think it is. Do you think there is any life there? No question of it; it was not made in vain. " Quoted from Journal of Discourses [http://journalofdiscourses.org/Vol_13/JD13-268.html], discourse by Brigham Young 1870

If indeed there are inhabitants on the sun, as declared by this prophet, the second president of the LDS Church, what kind of clothes are they wearing to shield them from the heat? And what superstructures (beliefs) have been built upon foundations of false principles and facts?
