Understand you DS. There's more point to earning income, than wasting your time defending the indefensible. The Whole Mormon story has already been totally shot to pieces lol.

Do you have to be so snide in all your posts, Melissa? Please, there's no need for it.
Well, clearly she is not snide in ALL her posts. Do you have to exaggerate in ALL your posts? Please, there's no need for all this hypersensitivity.
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
I guess there is always time to call others to repentance.

Hypersensitivity?
I'd hardly call that. Do you realize how much we are attacked? I could show you dozens of threads that have to do with the Mormons that are constantly saying that we are cult-goers, devil-worshipers, that our religion is stupid/funny/not true/etc. It's hardly hypersensitivity.:sarcastic
Well, that devil-worshipping bit is just dumb.
Meanwhile back at the issues, a discussion regarding the substance ensued...not.
It's been sixty-four pages, do you really think either party is going to budge one way or another?
I don't know, you tell me. If I'm wrong, show me how. If I'm right, why don't you change your mind?It's been sixty-four pages, do you really think either party is going to budge one way or another?
Wow, an extremely confident and bold statement.There cannot be any change in positions, unless the believers come up with something more tangible than , 'I believe'. The onus is on the LDS to examine their personal beliefs in the face of overwhelming evidence which is contradictory to the basis of the Mormon Church.

Sorry, this is gibberish. Are you trying to say that nothing in the BoM meets any of Albright's 4 criteria wrt the New World in any way? Because I think that's an accurate summary of the situation.
btw, why are you so enamored of this single dead archeologist?
Some reason why you don't just accept the consensus of archeological knowledge on the subject? My understanding is that from Michael Coe, ''Mormons and Archaeology: An Outside View,'' in Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought, Vol 8, No. 2 (Summer 1973), p. 42. Do you disagree with this?
From the movie Son's of Provo of course.Unlikely, cause they be "spiritual" daddy mack! :drool:

Joseph is rolling in his grave.
I can't agree that literary criticism is strong evidence. I like something a little more concrete, less subjective, you know.
