lol If it’s anything jewish don’t worry, I had my DNA tested and all I got was 3/4 German, 1/4 Scottish. They didn’t even give me the 1% nigger or jew they normally do for everyone.
I'm sorry, you're wrong. There is no product or sales in this app. It is purely free.
Church donations and resources fund its development and the research and transcription of genealogical data. It's one of the primary purposes of the church, and if we don't do it, Jesus promised to destroy us.
It's paid for by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
We have been gathering genealogical data from every source we are allowed to access and making it publicly and freely available for everyone for a long time now. We intend to get all of it.
The purpose of the app is to connect people with their ancestors. You get to learn about your ancestors and hopefully that makes you a better person.
We also use it so that the members of the church can perform salvific ordinances for their dead ancestors. If you don't understand what this means, you can find the nearest LDS missionaries and they'd be happy to explain what it means.
If the church fails to perform these ordinances for every person who ever lived on planet Earth, then Jesus will condemn us for not doing our duty.
It's important to be grounded and rooted in life. Know your history, even if its 1/10,000th of it.
Other stories of my ancestors include their murder by Catholics for being Calvinist, their loss of their north french fiefdom because of the continuous 100 years war, their participation in settlement of the new world (north and south), and participation in the crusades etc.
Edit: Also allegedly I have the mythological King Alaric the first king of Sweden in there somewhere, but there's so many branches I dont know if I can find it again. The oldest documented ancestor I could find was allegedly born in 303 A.D.
Obviously these people certainly existed even if they were deified or mythologized. We wuz godz n sheeeeiiiiit!
After about 1500 AD (in Europe) the records are sketchy at best. The reason is simple: A lot of kings and nobles would doctor their family history to claim ties that probably weren't there. But from the 1500s on, we have baptismal and marriage data from old churches that seems to be pretty reliable. (There isn't much reason to lie about local peasants being born or married.)
Since we don't know what is true or not, we'll just write down what people said and let people see the source data for themselves.
Charlemagne was LEGIT the greatest kings on planet earth BAR NONE. I'm having a hard time thinking of any king that has done anything comparable to what he did in their lifetime.
