I wonder if he was thinking "well, that was the 1611 King James Version...and Joseph Smith said it was flawed and God provided him with a new translation, which God told him he would finish before dying, but he died first, so perhaps Joe Smith was wrong, but that can't be, and ..." ???
LOL. That’s pretty much what I thought as well.
#8. We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.
Mitt didn't want to touch that with a ten-foot pole.
