If this is the English language of the early 1800’s well Hmmm. I am quite amazed that this forgery was bought, hook line and sinker. There doesn’t seem to be a coherent thought in the whole thing.

(But that's why it's so "Joseph Smithish"...Below you can see what other "revelations" Mormons bought into as "revelations" from a god...to see how easy it was to "gullible-ize" them):

* "Let my servant Newel K. Whitney retain his store, or in other words, the store, yet for a little season." (Lds Doctrine & Covenants 63:42)
* "Wherefore, children shall grow up until they become old;" (Lds Doctrine & Covenants 63:51)
* "And there are many kingdoms; for there is no space in the which there is no kingdom; and there is no kingdom in which there is no space, either a greater or a lesser kingdom." (Lds Doctrine & Covenants 88:37)
* "And, again, strong drinks are not for the belly, but for the washing of your bodies. And again, tobacco is not for the body, neither for the belly, and is not good for man, but is an herb for bruises and all sick cattle, to be used with judgment and skill." (Lds Doctrine & Covenants 89:7-8)

IMO, the meat of the story is the ongoing practice of the mormon church hiding and/or destroying historic documents that are proof of the arcane beliefs and practices of the church.

It is currently storming the air waves and internet with "I'm a Christian just like you" propaganda, and in order to attempt to defeat the truth being found on the internet the church and members are daily opening new mormon-friendly websites by the hundreds looking to overwhelm by sheer numbers sites that are bringing the truth to investigators.
