IMO, Packer wants to suppress facts - a tough position to justify - because he claims that "Some things that are true are not very useful."

Congratulations on learning how to spell "specious." You know, dictionaries can tell you not just how to spell a word, but what it means, too.

Perhaps the reason LDS historians are so strongly cautioned is because they enjoy a very unique relationship with the church that few others can.
