MormonTimes.com: Joseph Smith Papers will change landscape, editor says

I applaud this monumental effort to bring to light the writings of Joseph Smith, Jr., and to tell the world that it may begin again to dispute them. Robin Jensen said it best: "The terrible things said about Joseph Smith come largely from ignorance about the past."

This work caps an exciting part of our history and one that should put straight the many distortions and fabrications laid upon the prophet of God.

Thank you for going forth with this work and making sure it is authentic , something that can be trusted to be true.

Thank you for this gift! I am on pins and needles waiting to see it and use it. This project will be the way to learn to understand the Prophet Joseph
as he was and is. Working to use only his true writings may well help many members to understand the Gospel more than they ever have so they can know that it is from God to Joseph to the world.

Sounds like a fantastic project. Can't wait for it to come out!

This sounds so exciting, being able to see things the way the prophet himself did. I love history and being a part of it is wonderful. I am awaiting the finished works.

Joseph's life is of great interest to me. This project is a wonderful undertaking and I want to thank everyone who is involved.

I love reading about Joseph Smith. Can't wait until this is released.

This shows to the world that Latter-Day-Saints are not afraid of scrutiny. The principles of the church are pure and simple. Those who know the teachings of the church are enriched by them. Joseph Smith indeed was a prophet of God!

I hope it is very soon. I cannot get enough of this man's work, visions, thoughts, and his daily record.

I am most excited to read of his thoughts and lifes challenges as they really happened & not as others may percieve it to have happened. He has most wrongly been judged throughout history. This is wonderful news.

Can't wait for it to be realeasd, I love to read
about Joseph Smith
