Default Someone is making fun of Zelph

They have created a website dedicated to a newly discovered / translated Book of Zelph:

The thing is I can't decide if the site was made by an apostate or by a current church member who simply puts humor before judgment skills. It lacks the personal attacks, hell fire fury proclamations, and twisted bible references that tend to accompany true anti material.

The testimony of the nine witnesses was, well, kinda funny.

The site says that the book of zelph is the 2nd witness to the book of mormon. what is the first witness to the book of mormon - the book of mormon itself?

this reaks as gerald lund-esque.

i like how the website is designed with the same color schemes as lds.org.
