Joseph Smith was nothing more than a convicted fraud who bilked a great many people out of money before making up mormonism as his great golden cash cow.

um tanstaafl28, i would appreciate it if you didn't make such accusations. and you have no proof behind that claim anyway. joseph smith was 14 when God and the Savior appeared to him and had him re-establish the true church, mormonism.

he wasn't some swindler who stole peoples money then made a church to back it up, thats outrageous. and yes, he was always accused of crimes but these accusations were always false!! which is why he was released from jail every time

Back in that time, when someone was jailed, the accusations were not always confirmed. In Joseph Smith's case, the final time he was jailed before his death, they jailed him on charges of disturbing the peace.

they jailed him on charges of disturbing the peace.

No that is a rumor.

he didn't burn any newsprints. but, many unbelievers in the mormon church burned their newsprints. and their homes. and THEM. Thats a little illegal, last time i checked

i mean to say, many people who did not believe in the mormon church, who were against it, did these things to people who were members of the church

I only wish people would stop believing rumors, and go to the source to get their information...

LOL YOUR A MOROMON!
WHAT A FREAK!

Where did you find that? I have found with my experiences with people, If they accuse you of something, they either are what they say, OR are just insecure with themselves. I see whoever said that, couldn't even spell "Mormon" right!

mormons paaaa

If you're going to talk or act like that, then don't post. We don't need your profanity here.

Profanity shows how little intellect one truly has. Cursing doesn't hurt my feelings. Why even try to curse on this site? You can't even see it.

I was just wondering why the Book of Mormon has had to have so many new revisions. Would this not impact the book's original infallibility from the original gold plates?

The Book Of Mormon doesn't have many revisions at all. You also have to remember that the Bible in modern times, is almost not the same as the original writings due to many changes over the centuries.
