So, hence, the need to put the Book of Moses into a new book of Scripture. They print extracts from it, but they don’t print the entire thing. The only reason, in my opinion, the LDS Church used the Pearl of Great Price is, firstly, the Book of Abraham, and secondly, because they don’t print out the Inspired Version of the Bible. If you’re using the Inspired Version, you don’t need the Book of Moses. So my argument is you don’t need the book of Moses, if you’re using the IVB. We’ve got the Book of Moses, because the Book of Moses is a part of the Inspired Version of the Bible, it’s right there. Matthew: Yes, we threw out the Book of Abraham. We certainly don’t believe Joseph was a polygamist. Matthew: We believe in the Book of Mormon, we believe Joseph Smith is a prophet of God, we don’t believe in polygamy. GT: But, you believe in the Book of Mormon. We totally overhauled the website, put a big disclaimer on the website that we are not affiliated with the LDS Church in any way, shape or form, which is one of the prerequisites, of course. So, yeah, we just we changed our name, changed the website. GT: Okay, so, now you’re the Restored Branch. You know, touch wood, we’re still alright. So, we came to an agreement that they would back off if we changed our name, pretty much. We can’t just say we don’t believe in those things. We believe Joseph Smith is a prophet of God. Because we believe the Book of Mormon is true. They wanted us to basically give up everything that we believe that we are, and we simply can’t do that.
They wanted us to stop referring to Joseph Smith. Instead of them suing us, in the end, we came to an agreement, because the LDS Church wanted us to stop using the Book of Mormon. We took the fight to them as best as we could with our limited resources. So, we went to a lawyer, and we got lawyers, as best as we could. Matthew: Then, one day, I come home, from taking my boys out, and I’ve got this big envelope with the LDS Church stamped all over it, and I’m like, “Uh oh,” and then they go, “We’re going to sue you.” I was like, “Oh, wow.” Our sites, I mean, we’re not huge, and we don’t have lots of money.
