Title: Bad Book in Bad Elizabethan English
Review: The Book of Mormon proclaims to be a collection of divinely inspired stories of two Jewish tribes that came to the Americas around 600 B.C.It is a long, drawn out, war story that when originally written, betrayed the origins of Joseph Smith's uneducated (but not necessarily unintelligent) mind. After 150 years of revisions, mostly grammatical and spelling, the book is still extremely difficult to read due to the horrific King James English used in it.The book amazingly enough also managed to answer a lot of questions people were asking about religion, Masonry, etc. in western New York state during the 1820's. But if the Mormon church wants to try to attract people to their corporation, I mean church, they should really consider updating the language in the Book of Mormon.
Is the review positive or negative?
