[edit] Denial of seeing the BofM
An Anon had originally added the following to the article; I can't find a reference for a denial of this magnitude.
"He denied ever seeing the plates in a physical manner as we would understand the word today."
If it can be referenced, it should be added back. Storm Rider 04:32, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
This sentence near the end says the same thing:
Whenever David was asked if he physically saw the plates, he would say that he saw them in a vision or with his "spiritual eyes."
Is there any documentation for this? Seeing as how no one seems to have responded to StormRider, and has had 6 months to do so if they could, I will go ahead and delete this sentence as well. Novel-Technology 08:19, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
- See the following link for the quote. It available in other sources too: http://www.bible.ca/mor-witness-book.htm —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.191.17.168 (talk) 16:08, 20 January 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Zion's Camp participant
I've removed the uncited claim that Whitmer joined Zion's Camp. According to History of the Church vol 2. pp. 183-85, he was not a member. Martin Harris was, and perhaps an editor confused the event in the lives of these two? -SESmith 10:08, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
