...because of the disconnect Mormonism has to maintain between preserving the charlatanism of Joseph Smith as divine truth against historical reality (for example, a lack of any archaeological foundation to the BOM, and Joseph Smith’s documented grifter background)...

Not to mention no Jewish DNA in Native Americans.

Can't LDS at least acknowledge that if they were a CSI investigator this would be the coldest of any cold case?

Men lie. DNA doesn't.

Ironically, when faced with all the facts, men usually fess up. ;-) DNA, when presented with all the facts and unpolluted markers, also fesses up.

The point is, there is no way to trace the remnants of a Nephite race that was entirely destroyed 1600 years ago. The Lamanites who were left were genetically altered by god, so trying to trace a genetic marker to a people who's lines came from a pre-curse is extremely problematic. The curse brought upon Laman was passed down to succeeding generations. IF you think this was not a genetic alteration, then tell me how succeeding generations also brought about the same curse upon themselves?
