10% of BoM Contains Plagiarisms
2 Timothy 3:15; “And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.” The adjective heartbroken doesn’t do justice to what I, and millions of others, have experienced upon the discovery the Book of Mormon is a fraud. Every fiber of my […]

Another Look at Book of Mormon and View of the Hebrews Parallels
“If such may have been the fact, that a part of the Ten Tribes came over to America, in the way we have supposed, leaving the cold regions of Assareth behind them in quest of a milder climate, it would be natural to look for tokens of the presence of Jews of some sort, along […]
LDS Essay Book of Mormon Geography
General Conference, ‘Book of Mormon Geography,’ April 1929, pp. 15-16 “There is a great deal of talk about the geography of the Book of Mormon. Where was Zarahemla?

D&C 17:2 “And it is by your faith that you shall obtain a view of them, even by that faith which was had by the prophets of old.” 1 Timothy 4:7 “But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.” Oh beloved, remember what our Lord has already told us in His word! 2 […]
Who is the Book of Mormon Jesus?
“All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.” John 1:3 This was a week of inner reflection as America buried its 41st President, George HW Bush.
