Joseph Smith offered a plot

Religion has no plot. Science has no plot. This means that Joseph Smith is the only entry. He, at least, has given us a picture. . . Joseph Smith gave the world something that nobody else could. That is why I say that Joseph Smith, with nothing going for him and everything going against him, simply could not lose. He told us what the play is all about. If you can come up with a better story than his, more power to you, but up until now no one else has had any story at all to place before us. If only for that reason, I believe, the Prophet's story deserves a hearing. ("Before Adam")
