Calling joe smith....calling joe smith!!
Wonder if one needs an "urim and thumin" to read the dang things??
Bet there's at least one page in there that that UFO nuts will assert proves the exitance of "ancient astronauts"!!
By the way, does it matter if these here "plates" were found in a sealed mayonnaisse jar on Funk and Wagnal's back porch??
Seriously? Uh, yeah ... a mayonnaisse jar didn't exist back then. First we determine the age of this find, to see if it's authentically that old. Then, we read what it says; because the Bible has been edited and re-written over and over for nearly a thousand years. Books have been discarded (17 books are 'lost', if memory serves). The Bible as we know it today, contains about 80% of the books mentioned in the bible. We are missing a lot; what was in these missing books, no one knows.
