Re: The Lost 116 Pages, by Don Bradley

What are the chances that losing the pages was intentional on the part of Joseph Smith? It's quite possible that the lost portion ended up being less satisfactory to Joseph or was headed in a direction he regretted. Suppose the initial request of Martin Harris prompted ideas in Josephs' mind? If he...

Re: Kofford Pranks The Interpreter

I'd donate $50 to the Interpreter Foundation to see the actual email exchange. Seriously. I'm imagining...

Re: Kofford Pranks The Interpreter

We threw that thing up too fast to think about the predictable results. As my wife is constantly reminding me (and which I constantly forget), not everyone shares my humor. Oh well. So it goes.

My guess is that you all will be just fine. It would not be the first time that a publisher put a twist on...

Re: Kofford Pranks The Interpreter

I noticed that Dr. Bokovoy described Mr. Densley's piece as "the worst book review I have ever read." I wonder whether Dr. Bokovoy reconsidered that assessment after reading Dr. Midgley's recent review of M. Newton's Southern Cross Saints: The Mormons in Australia . He does think it's eve...
