The Ghost Committee Revisited

Post by consiglieri »

I am taping an episode tomorrow morning with Kolby Reddish scheduled to premiere tomorrow evening, as we merrily address The Light and Truth Letter this holiday season.

We will be revisiting the Skousen-Carmack-Peterson “Ghost Committee” hypothesis to account for Early Modern English in the Book of Mormon.

It should be a lot of fun!

I announce this here because I would know nothing of the matter but for the sleuths on this board!

Merry Christmas!🎄🎁

When you read the words
And bathed every veyne in swich licóur
Of which vertú engendred is the flour;
you just know something was up with that Ghost Committee. This will prove Mormonism is oh so true!

Yeah, we should all tune in to this RFM and Kolby broadcast.

Early Modern English is God's language and a sure sign of God's marvelous work and a wonder in His most holy book. It's definitely not Joseph Smith trying to sound biblical for a believing audience.
Myth is misused by the powerful to subjugate the masses all too often.

I have suspected that Chaucer might be a committee member.

Chaucer, Shakespeare, Johnson, Sturluson, Khayyam. I imagine many of the great ghost bards gathered at that Inn on Fleet Street.

Wonderful! A gift for everyone!

I should think Dee and Kelley were members of the Ghost Committee.

I just watched it. Great show!

I completely forgot about the Afore's epic Ghost Committee blunder. I dare you to watch 5 minutes from this point in the video and try not to laugh at the Afore getting caught red-handed telling a ridiculous whopper:
