He is the author of An Insider's View Of Mormon Origins and The Incomparable Jesus . Palmer concluded that while he liked many of the teachings of Joseph Smith , "the foundational events in church history are too problematic to ignore". He found that much of what Latter Day Saints take for granted as literal history has, over the years, been modified to emphasize certain aspects over others. This, he believes, has resulted in an inaccurate picture of LDS Church history. Palmer was Disfellowshipped from the Church in December 2004. Palmer has been quoted as saying that he still loves the church, and is pleased he wasn't Excommunicated . A disfellowshipped member retains church membership but loses certain privileges. Critics of the LDS Church have compared the Disfellowship of Grant Palmer to the Trial of Galileo Galilei by the Roman Catholic Church . SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS |
