Without downplaying the enormous contribution of the Joseph Smith Papers to Mormon studies, biblical studies involved many, many times more documents & types of docs spread across far, far more diverse ownership & thousands more docs are still freely accessible online.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is vastly superior to the field of biblical studies in this one way and it still kind of blows my mind.

Data for religious studies where we can ask the question: is the Eucharist an equivalent to temple clothing?
I’m confident @WSJ would never run a hit piece on the Catholic Church featuring a photo of defiant ex-Catholics desecrating the Eucharist For that very reason, I’m stunned and disappointed that @WSJ did the equivalent of that, but against the @Ch_JesusChrist

Why study religion? So that you can understand the rhetorical difference made between “aesthetics of a faith” and the “substance of a faith”. And, subsequently, why substance becomes an authoritative claim on what the right LDS woman looks like.
"In the end, ‘The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ isn’t really about Latter-day Saint wives at all," Amanda Freebairn writes. "It’s about what happens when you try to keep the aesthetics of a faith, while discarding its substance." https://t.co/86QoglFWuJ
