This article begins by commenting on certain aspects of Latter-day Saint doctrine, such as apotheosis, that are generally considered incorrect and even heretical compared to mainstream Christianity. However, using Mozart's Magic Flute as an example, the author demonstrates that such doctrines have not always been unorthodox and in fact play a prominent role in literature and culture. He describes the plot and characters of The Magic Flute in detail in order to illustrate specific principles.
