		Roberts' observations with regard to American archaeology are sufficiently dated as to be only compelling because, at the time, they were novel and painful for a faithful LDS leader to bring up.
		Roberts was one of the 26 general authorities of the Mormon Church from 1890 to 1933.
		Roberts must have felt when his studies led him to (apparently) conclude that Joseph Smith was a very imaginative fraud and that the Book of Mormon was fiction, and then finding the Church presidency seemingly not able to or not willing to comprehend and appreciate his findings.

	BH Roberts - Studies of the Book of Mormon
		Roberts expressed his early professionalism as a historian by suggesting that his readers turn to the notes at the end of each section to obtain additional information and perhaps to become interested enough to pursue the subject further.
		Roberts refused to “haggle” about the weight, which he said could have been as low as ninety or even fifty pounds [40, 23 kg], but explained that Smith was a “strong, athletic young man” who, under the stress and excitement of the moment, could have performed this amazing feat.
		Roberts could not criticize them for not being able to answer it or to assist him, but said that in a Church which claimed continuous revelation, a crisis had arisen where revelation was necessary.

	Evasive Ignorance: Anti-Mormon Claims that B.H. Roberts Lost His Testimony
		Roberts' probing examination of the Book of Mormon in "A Book of Mormon Study" is valuable to modern-day "Defenders of the Faith," as it calls attention to difficulties that they should be prepared to engage and explain.
		Roberts dictated that this work belonged to the Church, and all three drafts were given to the Church by the Roberts family upon his death in 1933.
		Roberts' apparent statement to Lloyd that the Book of Mormon "needs the most bolstering" and is not "the strongest evidence we have of the Church Divinity," even at face value is not a statement of unbelief in its divine origins.

	Brigham Young's Wives and His Divorce From Ann Eliza Webb

		If he is confirmed, Brigham predicted, “Roberts is going to have a chance to hand down some serious decisions before the 2008 presidential race heats up.

		Roberts said that Roe was a precedent “entitled to respect under principles of stare decisis,” which means it could be overturned if the constitutional foundations of the ruling “had been eroded by subsequent developments.”

		Brigham Henry Roberts was born in England in 1857.
		Admittedly, Roberts led quite a turbulent life, and being a General Authority with a strong drive (Madsen calls him a "scrapper"), he was always in the midst of things and events.
		I am surprised at the rise of all things Roberts since the publication of "The Truth, The Way, The Life." What is unusual is not so much the concern for the man, as is the concern for the image of the man. People want him to be unconventional and fringe.
