The convoluted story of Mormonism, as it exists in the 21st Century, is very similar to the duplicitous birth and use of a computer generated document fraudulently represented to be a real copy of, for example, a birth certificate, marriage certificate, or other public document originally created on paper and electronically scanned into a PDF document. Such an illegitimate computer generated document, a total fraud, is craftily created by its maker in superficial layers made from other previously created documents that preexisted the fraudulent generated document. For Mormonism began officially in 1830, but its real origins began in the minds of Joseph Smith, Jr., his mother, Lucy Mack Smith, his father, Joseph Smith, Sr., his brother, Hyrum Smith, and, in all probability, his third cousin, Oliver Cowdery, around the year 1820. Supposedly, in that year, Joseph Smith, Jr., the fourteen year old son of a failed farmer in up-state, Palmyra, New York, independently decided to pray to his deity in order to be led to the church that he should join. According to the tale told by the boy, Smith, he went, in his fifteenth year, to a wooded area near his father's farm and supposedly prayed. This was, allegedly, done in the spring of 1820, and Joseph Smith, Jr. came away from the woods to originally tell certain people, first his mother, father, and brother, that he had received a vision in which an angel came to him and instructed him to join none of the existing Christian churches. In Lucy Mack Smith's biography of her son, Joseph Smith, Jr., she wrote that "Joseph had told her that an angel, named Nephi, appeared to him in his first vision." This was actually the first of seven versions of what Joseph Smith, Jr. referred to, from 1820 until 1843, as his "first vision." There was actually an eighth version of the "vision story" that was culled from all seven of the very different versions of Joseph Smith, Jr., after his lynching and death, by his successor, Brigham Young, in 1848, which is the version used by the LDS Church as its current official "missionary version"

In the immediate years following 1820, very little is known from historical records about the activities of the family of Joseph Smith, Sr., except for testimonies from neighbors in Palmyra, New York that, as a collaborative team, Joseph Sr. and Joseph Jr. derived their main income by "money digging" through the use of a "seer stone" that Joseph Smith, Jr. found while digging a water well. The Smiths represented themselves to their neighbors as possessing the occult means of locating buried treasure through "folk magic and sorcery" by the use of the white oval-shaped "seer stone." According to sworn affidavits from reputable men of the Palmyra community, between the years 1820 and 1830, and later, as well as from the journals and diaries of respectable men and women who knew and associated with the Smith family, the recorded facts reveal that Joseph Smith, Jr. took to wearing a Jupiter talisman around his neck around the year 1819, which he continued wearing until his fatal lynching in 1844. The neighbors and friends who wrote about Joseph Smith, Jr. stated that Joseph wore the talisman for mystical power while using the "seer stone" to find buried treasure. According to the existing records, the young Joseph Smith and his father were not credited with finding any buried treasure, but according to the legal records of Manchester County, New York, Joseph Smith, Jr. was accused of criminal fraud in 1822 by one of his neighbors, who had paid him money to find buried treasure on his land. According to the court record, available on the Internet. Smith was accused, tried, convicted of criminal fraud, and fined for committing the crime.

Then, suddenly in 1823, came the story, reportedly proffered by only Joseph Smith, Jr., that another angel, named Moroni, appeared to him at his family farm in his room while he was sleeping. Again, supposedly, young Smith told his mother, father, and brother, about the angel, and Lucy Mack Smith later wrote that the angel Nephi had again appeared to her son. Supposedly, Joseph Smith, Jr. had no association with his third cousin, Oliver Cowdery, until around 1828, even though Cowdery lived and worked as a school teacher in another town not more that 45 miles away from Palmyra. Yet, this is not believable based upon the sudden and close relationship that the two young men later assumed, and the fact that Joseph Smith, Jr. did not disclose to the public the family relationship that Cowdery and he had shared. According to the then, eighteen year old Smith, the second angel told him about golden plates buried in a hill not far from the family farm, and that time would go by before he would be allowed to possess the golden plates, from which would come an original 588 page book, "The Book of Mormon," about the Hebrew (Jewish) origin of the Native American Indians, an original theory that a Protestant minister, Ethan Smith (no relation to Joseph Smith, Jr.) had independently drawn five years earlier, in 1825, and, about which E. Smith had written a book that was available to Joseph Smith, Jr., entitled, "A View of the Hebrews." Around 1925, Mormon scholar and general authority B. H. Roberts officially investigated the staggering similarity of Ethan Smith's book with the 1830 edition of the "Book of Mormon," and concluded, for the Mormon Church" that Joseph Smith, Jr. had probably plagiarized substantially from E. Smith's book, "A View of the Hebrews."

In addition to the accounts of "money digging" and a conviction for criminal fraud during the years following Smith's first alleged vision in 1820, it is also recorded that the young Smith officially joined the Methodist Church in Palmyra, New York, and became romantically involved with Emma Hale, who eventually became his wife in 1827. Between the time that Joseph Smith, Jr. was, supposedly, visited by the second angel, in 1823, and the year of his marriage, in 1827, the very charismatic and imaginative young man had four years to work with his mother, father, brother, and third cousin, Oliver Cowdery, to develop on paper a plausible narrative about the discovery, retrieval, and purported translation of the golden plates that the second angel, supposedly, allowed him to possess just shortly after he was married. He also had enough time to work, primarily, with his very literate and knowledgeable cousin, Oliver, to prepare and write a rough draft of what would be publicly known, in 1830, as the "Book of Mormon." Oliver Cowdery's educational level, and profound deductive, intuitive, and scholarly abilities, which placed him in, probably, the top fifteen percent of the most intelligent men in the nation at that time in history, allowed him to later become a successful practicing lawyer, and Joseph Smith, Jr.'s charm and charismatic influence over other people, his proven ability to read and write well, and his access to, and use of, the holdings of public libraries in the towns of Palmyra and Manchester, are facts that promote the secretive collusion of the two men, from 1823 until after 1828, in the writing and production of the first and final drafts of the 1830 "Book of Mormon." Yet, in the formal official history of the Mormon Church, written by devout members of the Mormon hierarchy after the lynching and death of Joseph Smith, Jr. in 1844, the dubious official version of events, from 1820 to 1830, makes it seem that Joseph Smith, Jr. and Oliver Cowdery were complete strangers when they, supposedly, met sometime in 1828; when, according to the Mormon version, Cowdery accepted Joseph Smith, Jr. as a prophet, became his scribe, and assisted him in the translation of the "reformed Egyptian language, which was allegedly the language used in anciently inscribing what was written upon the golden plates; which were not actually witnessed by the anatomical eyes of the three purported witnesses who testified that they saw the plates. These alleged witnesses swore that they had witnessed the golden plates with their "spiritual eyes," whatever that meant.
