LDS Church acknowledges the Book of Mormon is likely not what they thought it was

On Monday president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Thomas Monson, said in an interview with CNNs Brian Gumble, “In light of new discoveries (i.e. the CES letter) we have been forced to aknowleged that the book we claimed for years to be the literal history of a people leaving Jerusalem to the Americas to be total bull shit.” This new revelation is not expected to effect the beliefs of faithful members because despite the new admission by the leader of the church these members know “with every fiber of their being” that the book is still true.
