Luck: It's not sillier. It's just as silly as Christianity and Islam.

Why do you think that anyone should either question or deny this idea/belief? Because the popular, religious *beliefs* call such an evolutionary belief blasphemy?
I think that the best answer to your question lies in the concept of evolution: Amoeba, monkey, man, God. Does any step in that chain seem any greater than any other step?
The self-aware, abstract-thinking Man seems like a God when compared to the tool wielding, semi-trainable monkey; I mean, really, which species is hands-down the most powerful one on this planet? Perhaps you should watch the Sci-Fi series called Star Gate:SG1 for a fairly representation of one very interesting perspective of evolution and technology on religion, and the chance to re-evaluate the traditional religious fantasies about God.

Rev 22:18-19 is only in reference to the book of revelations. If it was referencing any other books, than the other 65 books that were compiled to make up the bible would be adding to this book. Would that make any sense.?
The book of rev. was not the last book written. It is only listed as the last book in the bible because that is how it was compiled & that it deals with future prophecy.

It may sound silly to you non-believer, but to us,
We look at the whole thing as a family affair, where God the Eternal Father is our creator, he made a world , so his children can learn and grow, and also be tested for their righteousness, and those who pass the test will be granted Godhood.
Its much more logical than changing from monkey, for who knows what purpose.
Just my 2 cents.

Joseph Smith Jr. (founder of LDS-Mormons) couldn't be trusted with earthly matters, let alone Spiritual ones.
He made up his religion. He wanted to be a prophet. See above.
The Holy Bible (New Testament) is very clear on the road to salvation. Rev. 22:18-19 covers the book of Mormon.

Why would we deny our own doctrine?
