I agree that plenty of non-specialists — including many people altogether outside of the academy — are capable of making valuable contributions to Book of Mormon studies.

 

In fact, I would say that the old Foundation for Ancient Research and Mormon Studies was founded on a recognition of that fact, and that today’s Interpreter Foundation continues to operate in the light of it.

 

May such people feel entirely welcome to contribute, and may they continue to do so.
