Joseph Smith was illiterate and worked for a printer in NY right before his
"spiritual awakening". I'll look for the book I read this in so I can source it
but long story short; Smith's boss's version of the story is that he wrote a novel in which Jesus spent some time on the North American continent.
Joseph Smith based the religion on a plaguerized, fictional account of Jesus in America if his ex boss's account is true.
