 These people have volunteered to give information and/or be of support to others. The majority of these people are former Mormons. Some helpers are Christian and some are of no religious affiliation. I have tried to note the religious orientation on each listing where appropriate.

Historical and Doctrinal Questions

For historical or intellectual questions regarding Mormonism please feel free to contact James at the web site below. James has studied Mormon history for many years and has developed an extensive Mormon research library. He has focused his research on the Book of Abraham papyri, Mormon polygamy, and the LDS temple endowment development, but James can certainly assist you in finding answers to a wide range of Mormon related questions.
