a work-in-progress
There are countless youtube videos that deal with Mormonism available on the Internet. Some are informative, some are funny, some are faith-promoting and many are enlightening. A list of the EXmormon Foundation video presentations for 2008 and 2009 are available at their website. Here is a collection of videos available on the Internet that we especially liked.
Book of Mormon Translation. This 4 minute video is a sensitive introduction to the Book of Mormon translation process. It is not anti-Mormon and is very factual. Can be shared with faithful members. This was produced by some friends of MormonThink. Thanks for the plug.
Kinderhook Plates. This 5 minute video gives a brief synopsis of the Kinderhook Plates problem. Although it takes a jab at apologist Daniel Peterson, it also presents accurate info on the Kinderhook Plates issue. This was produced by some friends of MormonThink. Thanks for the plug.
Lying for the Lord. This was a presentation by former CES teacher Ken Clark that he gave at the 2008 Exmormon Foundation conference. Ken is a great presenter and made the presentation very funny, interesting and informative. It is shown on youtube in 10 parts. Part one is here. Or can be be viewed via Stream Now. The links to all parts on youtube can be found here as well information on the presenter.
Chased out of Mormonism. This was a presentation by former member Lyndon Lamborn that he gave at the 2008 Exmormon Foundation conference. Lyndon did an excellent job recapping his unique journey out of Mormonism. It's entertaining and informative. It is shown on youtube in six parts. Part one is here. Or can be be viewed via Stream Now. The links to all parts on youtube as well as Lyndon's other videos and writings, including the video of his actual excommunication, go here.
Joseph Smith's Language Problems. This was a presentation by former member Richard Packham that he gave at the 2009 Exmormon Foundation conference. Richard is a brilliant man and a continually requested speaker at the ExMormon conferences. Richard has a vast knowledge of languages and linguistics. That, coupled with his knowledge of the LDS Church and it's detailed history, gives Richard perhaps a unique perspective of the linguistic problems in Mormonism that very few members know the extent of. It's informative and pretty humorous as well. It is shown on youtube in ten parts. Part one is here. Richard's popular website is here.
Authorship - Who really wrote the Book of Mormon. This was a presentation by Craig Criddle, Ph. D that he gave at the 2009 Exmormon Foundation conference. Craig is one of the experts on the Spalding theory which gives an alternative explanation to the origins of the Book of Mormon. He is famous (or infamous) for his essay Sidney Rigdon: Creating the Book of Mormon. Craig's presentation was really well done. It is informative and the best one we've ever seen on this subject. It is shown on youtube in ten parts. Part one is here. Craig's continual work is here.
