This thread is open to general discussion.

In May of 1829 Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery were praying in the woods about baptism and had John the Baptist appear to them, put his hands on their heads, and recite the following, currently found in D & C Section 13: Upon you my fellow servants, in the name of Messiah, I confer the Priesthood of Aaron, which holds the keys of the ministering of angels, and of the gospel of repentance, and of baptism by immersion for the remission of sins…”

So my question would be... Did Joseph Smith live the life of an Aaronic priest since that time?

“reformed Egyptian” from which the Book of Mormon was supposedly translated from is as bogus as a $3 dollar bill. Don't dare flame me for this unless you can provide a link to ANY ME archaeological finds showing it actually existed.
