SCRIPTURE - CONTRADICTIONS
There are several seeming contradictions
in doctrine between the Book of Mormon and
the Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great
Price. Many consider these differences to
have resulted from the evolution of Joseph
Smith's approach to Mormonism (the Book of
Mormon arrived in 1830, whereas the other
two books arrived, in various forms, many
years later.) Many members of the Utah Church
are unaware of these contradictions, or are
unable to explain why they exist.
