Join us for this brand new series of Cultish. Co-host Jeremiah Roberts is joined in studio by Dan Tate, a returned missionary who abandoned the LDS faith because of this translation. Jeremiah and Dan drop you into a fascinating historical timeline starting in the early 1800s when the Mormon prophet Joseph Smith came across an exhibit of Egyptian mummies and papyrus scrolls that he claimed was “A Translation of ancient Records that have fallen into our hands from the catacombs of Egypt.” What is the real truth behind this translation? Why did it cause so many to lose faith in the LDS church when these ancient Egyptian documents were re-discovered in 1967? Tune in to find out.
