least feasible religious belief of all

Ah, fringe Mormons. We're used to stories of child-raping polygamists, communities where the girls become Wife #9 at age 12, and the boys are excommunicated (officially, due to acts of disgrace like for wearing t-shirts and listening to music) in an effort to offset the freakish gender imbalance. We find their more mainstream cultural views harmlessly naif, like those of someone who would wear acid washed elastic-banded Velcro strapped jeans to fit in when visiting America. Personally, I miss the morality advertisements[1]. Yeah, yeah, world was created 6,000 years ago in 6 days and evidence contrary was placed there to test our faith. Simple enough, but sometimes, these guys have gotten really, really creative. You see, when a religion is based on the belief that God talked to a dude in the last couple of generations, it produces an inherently more trusting following that is more likely to break-off and start fringier and fringier sects. The single physically least feasible religious belief of all is purportedly believed by 4% of Mormons: Hollow Earth Theory.
