211: Fraudulent Narrative of the Book of Mormon

The Book of Mormon is a fraud you say?  Joseph Made it up or stole the ideas from someone else?  If only it were that simple.  Today I sit down with two friends, Chris and Clay.  We talk about ways in which to corroborate a fraudulent narrative of the Book of Mormon.  Who could have been involved and how the narrative would have to flow based on who is in on it and who is being duped along with what it should look like if Joseph is truly plagiarizing sources to create a fictional work.  Is “The Book of Mormon” a fake?  Maybe… that conclusion certainly is reasonable.  Yet, as we explore in today’s episode, to create a coherent historical narrative that explains the ins and outs of how such a hoax could be pulled off seems to have just as many issues if not more than simply believing in the divine nature of the book.  The witnesses, Emma, Rigdon, Spaulding, View of the Hebrews, Late War, Savant, Genius, Photographic memory, and everything in between is explored in just over an hour……..  Is there room for faith?……  the choice was always yours!
