ALAN - Has the Church acknowledged, made a statement about, or said anything at all concerning its possession of the Michigan Tablets and if so, what? My question is based on this article from the Ancient American magazine. Any statement, etc. on the Padilla plates and their similarities to the Reformed Egyptian on the Anton Script? See this article

JOEL - These are interesting items, but there is a high probability that these and others like them are not true ancient artifacts, but are actually forgeries. I believe the LDS church leader and scientist, James E. Talmage, examined some of them and came to this conclusion. This is probably why the church has not made any statements about them one way or the other. Please check out the article at this site.
