Bigfoot Cain Is

I think you are misunderstanding the scripture. The scripture you quote says

The scriptures are clear at this point Cain could be killed by man, and more then likely was killed by one of his descendants.

If Cain was a spirit that appeared to Elder Patten, then how do you account for his appearance? He was covered with hair and as tall as Elder Patten when Elder Patten sat a horse.

Zelph also said:

Hard to be sure about that. It is not to say that Cain was unable to be killed, but that he wouldn't be. The word "lest" ofGen. 4:15, is more like "not" in a literal translation. This word, per Gesenius" Hebrew lexicon #1115, means "lest" when following a command verb. Therefore, He wouldn't be killed because he ruled the wicked, and the righteous were commanded not to kill him.

Who said Cain was Bigfoot? There are sightings of multiple bigfeet, so unless Cain can have kids, its out.

I have another theory stated below.

And where was the city built? "...on the east of eden."
Where is Eden? Missouri. In 1971, a creature described as "half-ape, half-man," was spotted in north-eastern Missouri. Later three children saw it saying it was "six or seven feet tall, black and hairy."

Then it gets strange:

He goes on to relate how balls of light exploded with stench. It was seen for weeks, reported as having both ape and human features. Some heard disembodied voices.

Such "haunting" phenomena suggest a spiritual nature, yet MOMO, as he has been dubbed, also stole and ate a peanut butter sandwich and left footprints.

Its the right territory. Right appearance. Behavior? Hmmmm.

Well, after reading this thread over we have to reach the conclusion it is all a matter of speculation. I really doubt Cain is bigfoot or some sort of hairy creature that goes around scaring people. I am not saying Bro. Patten was lying but there are so many of these urban legends/stories going around that sometimes we believe them to be true.

Yep. Speculation. Certainly not doctrine. Happily, D&C 88:78 commands us to teach one another theories, assuming, I'm sure that the theories are not presented as doctrine. It is for our intellectual benefit to ponder things.

Is Cain Bigfoot?

Those are pretty good points you have, I never figured or pondered on this. If Cain was bigfoot wouldn't he be normal sized man but just hairy like bigfoot? There have been multiple appearances of big foot around the world, so if Cain was bigfoot wouldn't there only be just one bigfoot if it was Cain?

Exactly. That's what I think. Nevertheless, we have to keep in mind that these sightings may not be necessarily true. Just as an example (even though it may seem unrelated) when someone goes missing, people report "sightings" of that person all over the world. They swear they saw such person and end up being incorrect so I think this same reasoning applies in this case. Just because a lot of people say they saw "Big Foot" does not mean they did, maybe it was a bear or other type of animal but not a strange phenomenon.

I know two appearances around the round that are true, One in America and one in Australia. So obviously Cain is not Bigfoot.
