Excerpt from The Book of Mormon Examined: And Its Claims to Be a Revelation From God, Proved to Be FalseThe Whole mystery as to the origin of Mormonism, and the origin of the Book which they profess to follow, is cleared up by the foregoing letter and extract, which, I hope, the reader will notice particularly. It was Sidney Rigdon that dictated to Smith the subject matter of that Book and as soon as the manuscript was complete, withdrew from the scene of action, and joined Camp bell and others, in preaching baptism for the remission of sins in the literal sense. He left in order to return, 'when a more favorable opportunity occurred, and then returned as a stranger to Smith, expressing his affected surprise at the Book of Mormon, and professing not to receive it without much argu ment and persuasion. But, Where is he now? If_ the Book 18 deserving of credit, how is it that, of all the eleven Witnesses, with Sidney Rigdon also, not one is now a Latter Day Saint? Why have they left the system, if it was built upon truth? I leave it for the Mormons to reply.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
