What if thousands of years in the future somehow all our history in America is lost, would a new generation be pretty sure we must have put the faces of our gods on Mt. Rushmore?

What if thousands of years in the future
some how all our history in America is lost?
--Have you seen Geology before? no history is ever 100% lost.
I think word of mouth would trickle down through the generations. The people of the future would not be starting with nothing like our ancestors did.
probably. and that's part of the reason why i hate mt. rushmore, it elevates men of government to the status of "gods." also, the US seized the area from the lakota tribe after the great sioux war of 1876-77. the treaty of fort laramie from 1868 had previously granted the black hills to the lakota in perpetuity. the lakota consider the hills sacred.
In a perverse sort of way they kinda were. We looked up to them and saw them as a moral standard by which we live. It wouldn't be too far from the truth but that would be amusing.
I've thought about it a lot,
read it often. I wrote a book about the Book of Mormon,
partly just because I wanted my own conviction,
my testimony, to be in print, even if only for my children's sake.
I dismiss out of hand the early criticism that somehow this was a book that Joseph Smith wrote.
The only thing more miraculous than an angel providing him with those plates and him translating them by divine inspiration would be that he sat down and wrote it with a ballpoint pen and a spiral notebook.
Do you think we look at King Tutankhamun as a god?
possibly, i mean the Saxons thought Christ was a warrior, anything is possible.
It is possible. I also believe that medicine and technology will have advanced enough to eliminate problems like near-sightedness. As a result they may be confused by the glasses on Teddy Roosevelt.
