Re: Radical Orthodoxy Redefines Mormonism in Troubling Ways
I applied to be a signatory, but I was rejected when I proposed five additional tentpoles of Latter-day Saint Radical Orthodoxy: 1. Proclamation of the First Presidency to the Saints Scattered Abroad , Jan. 15, 1841. 2. Proclamation of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day ...

Re: Carmack/Skousen: "Virtually none of the grammatical variants listed in section 4-archaic grammar are archaic."
These revisions illustrate the care and integrity with which the Book of Mormon Critical Text Project has been conducted from the time it was launched. Care and integrity? I'd expect nothing less with $312,000+ poured into the project by the Interpreter Foundation since late 2014 . I'm ready to ins...

Re: Witnesses Trailer a Triumph
Kishkumen, I have constructed a draft timeline that I hope will be expanded upon and become the standard reference for forthcoming histories of the film and documentary project. February 6, 2019 : the Witnesses co-executive producer announces the launch of a film website featuring a link titled "Pla...

Re: Carmack/Skousen: "Virtually none of the grammatical variants listed in section 4-archaic grammar are archaic."
The revisions to Nature of the Original Language will apparently appear in part 8 of volume 3 of the Book of Mormon Critical Text Project. However, Dr. Skousen previously noted that Part 8 "will outline the history of the modern critical text project of the Book of Mormon, including the FARMS critic...

Re: A New Smear Article: Interpreter Targets Givens and Hauglid
Doctor Thompson writes: Contrary to Givens’ assertion, Joseph Smith does not actually translate any of the text in Facsimile #3 either. For example, he interprets Fig. 5 as “Shulem, one of the king’s principal waiters, as represented by the characters above his hand,” but Joseph Smith does not actua...

Re: Folding like Darwin's House of Cards?
Tom, was there any indication as to the reason behind not being able to "fully access" the ECCO? What could possibly be the issue here? I checked out the website and it seems like a straight-forward purchase and Gale seems to be a huge market player; was the database defective in some way? It's kin...

Re: Is Something "Amiss" at "Mormon Interpreter"?
I’m surprised that the article does not even acknowledge Janiece Johnson, “Becoming a People of the Books: Toward an Understanding of Early Mormon Converts and the New Word of the Lord,” Journal of Book of Mormon Studies 27 (2018): 1-43. Did anyone review the article prior to publication?

Re: Latest Numbers from the Interpreter Foundation
Your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Roof bathing was the live web cam of its time, I guess. It's not so clear that this led to David's downfall, either.

I recently came across a new book, titled Repicturing the Restoration , by Anthony Sweat. According to the book description: While existing artwork that portrays the Restoration is rich and beautiful, until now many key events in Latter-day Saint history have surprisingly never been depicted to accu...
