Title: Flawed
Review: This book is THE anti-Mormon book of all time by perhaps the best-known ex-Mormons. Notwithstanding, it has many flaws. For example, the Tanners criticise Joseph Smith for having made changes to the revelations from the 1833 "A book of Commandments" and the 1835 edition of the Doctrine and Covenants. What they ignore is that the Bible, a text that, as Evengelicals, they believe to be inerrant, is replete with prophets editing their revelations and the revelations of other prophets. THis is clear when one reads Jeremiah 36:28-32b; compare the Decalogue (Ten Commandments) of Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5; and compare Jeremiah 52 with 2 Kings 24-25 and Isaiah 36-39 with 2 Kings 18:13-20:19. If Jeremiah, Moses, and Isaiah can do such, why is it so problematic that Joseph Smith did the same thing as previous prophets of the Lord?This is just one brief example of the many flaws as contained in this book.
