“Even Columbus himself felt that he was led by God. I guess it’s you’re word against his. “
That is a strange way to present it. Usually the words “you’re word against” imply that two people are making a claim and one is lying and the other is telling the truth. But it is a verifiable claim. Columbus could not verify his claim, so it has nothing to do with “his word” or mine.
You’re viewpoint is totally subjective as was Columbus’s. What is the point of quoting the book of Mormon? Are you suggesting it predicted Columbus’s voyage 300+ years after it occurred? Okay, let me try it. Richard Nixon will be president. He will resign in disgrace. THERE! I can be a prophet, too!
That incredible vast Palmyra library that Joseph Smith must have had such a great selection from. It’s amazing, I tell ya!
