"It is the purpose of this paper to explore how the leaders and members of the rearly Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints understood the authority of the Bible, and inparticular to see how they responded when Americans began to become familiar with biblical criticism in the late nineteenth century.... The issue created a division between liberal and conservative protestants that has continued to this day." [AUTHOR]
