My religion is based on the facts in the Bible. There's faith involved, but the foundation is solidly factual.

Mormans say the same about their bible. Muslims say the same about their koran. Need I go on?

The LDS Church also believes in the Holy Bible, both Old and New testaments, and says exactly the same things about them. We do not have "another" Bible.

We do have the Book of Mormon which we posit to be an ancient record from the America's and God's dealing with a break off group of the House of Israel who were guided to these shores about 600 BC as a part of the scattering of Israel spoken of in the Old Testament.

Hope that helps you undertsand our position on those scriptures.

The archeological evidence and FACTS that have been and continue to be found in the ME support the Bible.

There is no physical evidence of any kind to support the BoM.

Oh, and Mormons place a “qualifier” on the Holy Bible, “...as far as it is translated correctly.” Thus opening the door to personal interpretation and so-called “continual revelation”.

Comparing the facts of Christianity to Islam? No, you don't need to "go on." You should stop now.
