0:00.0	Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of Mormon Stories podcast. I am one of your
0:05.0	co hosts for today, John Delin. And today we are continuing what is becoming a barn burner
0:12.4	and epic historic series with Mike, the creator of the website, LDS discussions wherein we
0:20.9	are going to be covering hopefully 50 to 60 specific topics all relating to Mormon church
0:27.1	truth claims in a thoughtful, respectful and accurate way. And joining me today is of course
0:35.0	Mike from LDS discussions and we've got Nemo back. So hey Mike. Hey everybody. Thanks for joining
0:42.2	us and hey Nemo. Hi guys. All right Mike. Do you want to do you want to tell us kind of where we've
0:47.8	been and and where what we're doing today? Yes, so we basically like I said in the first episodes
0:52.4	and hour were what five in so or six and whatever we are and we've been trying to build off that

1:20.3	going to show how those first episodes are going to impact directly into the Book of Mormon text
1:25.2	and this is why from a secular slash scholarly perspective when you look at this text critically
1:31.3	you can see that it's a 19th century composition and in this particular episode we're going to do
1:38.0	today it's going to talk about a lot of it's going to be about the apologetics with the translation
1:43.6	method. So in a lot of ways this will branch off of the translation episode to look at the translation
1:48.8	method Joseph Smith would have used and why that matters and the one last thing I'll say before we
1:54.8	move on is to give a shout out to John Larson he had done a podcast in this I want to say about nine
