Good call, Doctor! That early part of the timeline needs a lot of work.Doctor Steuss wrote: ↑Wed Aug 10, 2022 8:49 pmI feel that John Widstoe's 1908 "Joseph Smith as Scientist" may deserve a place in the timeline.

1980 - Eugene England sends out copies of "The Perfection and Progression of God: Two Spheres of Existence and Two Modes of Discourse," attempting to harmonize the teachings of various LDS leaders. Several months later, in 1981, Bruce R. McConkie tells England "...it is my province to teach to the Church what the doctrine is. It is your province to echo what I say or to remain silent."

Re: Master Timeline of Mopologetics, Second Edition
Great list. Great work.
Kish, in your archives and data is there a specific thread detailing the life of this Chiasmus work? It is, in my experience, one apologetic masterpiece that went mainstream. Meaning, it became part of elders quorum rants, high priest group eloquence, CES lessons, firesides, MTC higher level lessons, read-aloud sunday school lessons and home teaching.
How did this particular apologetic art get so widespread?

For your consideration:
I hesitated to say anything earlier because I didn't want to self-aggrandize but maybe you should consider that the discovery of Anubis's missing nose happened right here on Discuss Mormonism, live, and members here helped me with details of that discovery. Discussion followed along with other threads about this important feature. Within minutes Philo Sofee was there to participate and relish the sensational find! Yeah baby!! So far (almost 5 years) to my knowledge the Church and its Egyptologists have made no public mention of the obvious implications of this important discovery.

Masterful work, Reverend Kishkumen. You mentioned Kevin Graham switching sides; should there be a reference to Kerry Shirts switching sides as well?
