Mormon Prophet Russell M. Nelson Says the Book of Mormon Is a Miracle – Let’s Fact-Check That

President Russell M. Nelson recently called the Book of Mormon a “miracle”—from its origin to its emotional impact. But how accurate are his claims?

In this deep-dive, we break down his entire narrative:
🔍 Was Oliver Cowdery really commanded by revelation to assist Joseph Smith?
📜 Did Joseph use parchment or paper?
🪄 Was the translation process truly miraculous—or just misunderstood?
📚 Is the Book of Mormon tangible evidence of the Restoration… or a circular claim?
📖 Does Ezekiel 37 actually predict the Book of Mormon?
📵 Are seer stones like smartphones—or relics of magical thinking?

With historical sources, firsthand accounts, and scholarly insight, we explore whether Nelson’s statements hold up—or fall apart.

👀 Watch until the end to see why emotional anecdotes, spiritual feelings, and theological folklore aren’t good enough in 2025.

📌 Sources cited include Dan Vogel, Richard Bushman, Grant Palmer, Royal Skousen, and the Church’s own Gospel Topics essays.

🧠 Truth deserves more than feelings. It deserves **evidence**.
