San Diego Day 2 - Mormon Battalion Historic Site

I was exploring the town that I saw a place that I thought it was another visiting place of the old town. I went there, and they said that they had a free tour every one hour. I waited a few minutes and a girl joined us for the tour.


I talked to an old woman before starting the tour and I understood that the tour was related to the Mormon's church. She was also a Mormon. The tour was surprisingly creative. He was explaining about the pictures that they turned into a movie. I got surprised and I enjoyed it a lot. Soon, I understood that it was a religious show to influence someone to convert. It was their business; that's why it was free.


The tour was about a group of people who their fate guided them to take a long journey and fight an army and form a culture. I didn't understand all the parts, but they had created very innovative show. It was definitely very impressive for young people. However, I spent all my life reading and thinking about religions, and I know that it was just a show. I don't know if that guy was a believer or a pretender, but I know that he knew I am not gonna covert. The girl who accompanied me was also a Mormon. I tried to be friends with her, but again she was not interested :)


They tried to get my email or contact information by offering free photos, and other things, but I didn't give them anything.
