The Kinderhook Plates
Critics say "only a bogus prophet translates bogus plates". But Joseph Smith said "A prophet is only a prophet when he is acting as such." And when a prophet is just comparing characters in two documents, he is not "acting as such"
-Don Bradley
The Kinderhook plates were unearthed in Kinderhook Illinois, and brought to Joseph Smith for translation. Joseph compared the characters to what he knew about translation, and gave a partial translation. Later, the plates were proven to be a hoax. Does this prove Joseph to be a false prophet? We take a closer look, so you can be the judge.
