great find jesus smith! thanks. the words preceding that first quote you posted are also really great:
"
Not until the revelations of Joseph Smith, bringing forth the Book of Mormon, did any one know of these migrants. It was not known before, but ***now the question is fully answered***.
"
you cant get more OFFICIAL than that, spoken by a "prophet" of the church: *fully answered*!
i think the apologetic response would be to attack the word "fully"... apologists have shown that semantics can destroy *any* revelation... it is one of their biggest tools, from what i have seen... lol =)
thanks for the link!
