First, Joseph Smith did not claim to write the Book of Mormon. He translated it. When you translate something you do not claim to be creating an original work. Now, I guess you believe that Joseph Smith made up the Book of Mormon, so you are looking for literary works that might prove the foundation of the Book of Mormon. I used to wonder about what was in the View of the Hebrews. For a long time I heard that the book had been lost to historians, and some were claiming that the Book of Mormon was really written by Ethan Smith. Then the View of the Hebrews became available. It is nothing like the Book of Mormon. All those false claims of the Book of Mormon critics can now be thrown out because we can actually compare the two books. There are passages in the Book of Mormon that come from the Bible. No question about it. They are clearly marked as coming from the Bible. There are passages in the New Testament which come from the Old Testament. Does this mean the New Testament writers were plagiarists? Not at all. The credibility of the New Testament is not diminished by claims of plagiarism. Neither is Joseph Smith's credibility lessened, in my opinion.

I don't think so. For one thing you don't see too many Mormons outside the United States, it being predominantly an American religion. For another most of England is dominated by the Church of England (Anglican over here). I don't know what religion she is though but I don't think it's Mormon. Where'd you get the idea that she was?
