John Colton's blog

I was recently having a "discussion" about the authenticity of the Book of Mormon on a message board. Another participant posted this link to an Orson Scott Card essay on the topic, which I thought was very interesting. I think I had read it before, a few years ago, because some of the points were familiar.

Basically, it's Card's professional point of view (as an award-winning science fiction and fantasy writer) that the Book of Mormon could not have been the product of an 1820's fiction writer.
