Talked To An LDS guy From My Work About JS He had no idea what I was talking about with JS and reading through a hat.  He said I had to be making that up and I then showed him it on lds.org.  He’s in his late 30s.  It’s amazing how leaders are still trying to hide this....

None of my TBM friends have any clue about the essays.

And conclusion is he was confused and frustrated...he said he’s always wondered about church history but never searched.  His wife is way TBM.
