Kinderhook plates interview

The Kinderhook plates have been controversial ever since 1843. Apologists and critics have debated the historical facts and extrinsic evidence for years.

Yesterday I did an interview about them on the Mormon Book Reviews channel on YouTube. See it here:

The show notes have some useful references. 

BTW, if you haven't subscribed to the Mormon Book Reviews channel, you should now. Steve is an effective, interesting, and interested interviewer who seeks ways to build bridges and understanding among people of all beliefs.




I should mention that while I think the chapter in the Kinderhook plates in the book Producing Ancient Scripture is outstanding for its thorough treatment of the historical evidence, as I mentioned in the video there is a gap in the analysis that the authors understandably skipped over but should not be ignored.

And although I endorsed that article, I don't endorse or agree with all the chapters in that book.
