The accounts of the Book of Mormon are much later than the Bible, they supposedly occur in the Americas, yet there are no archaeological findings, and even the DNA of the peoples who would be descendants of the people listed in the BOM, never match up.

It would be good if you would study more and find out why you have been deceived.

Isn't it the LDS claim that the Book of Mormon events happened circa 500 BC or thereabouts, and then one day Jesus showed up (post 30 AD)? Anyway, I'm watching this Spanish language movie with gilberto parra (as he's identified in the credits). He and another gentleman are singing and standing in a cockfight ring.

Muy interesante.

I have and continue to "study" as well as "studied" the claims of Joseph Smith.

Even your own church disavowed the DNA discoveries of one of their own, regarding the "descendants" of the peoples listed in the BOM.

The facts are that despite decades of archaeological research, researchers have found many pre-Colombian, native American civilizations throughout South, Central and North America, nothing has been found to point to even one significant event claimed in the BOM. No BOM cities, inscriptions, no inscriptions in Hebrew, Egyptian, no scriptures, no relics, no mention of people, nations, or places, no artifacts of any kind have ever been found, compared to the Near East studies researchers have found inscriptions in caves, articles used in daily life have been unearthed, even the Dead Sea Scrolls findings actually point to civilizations mentioned in the Old and New Testament. Civilizations that date back thousands of years.

The Bible has stood the test of rigorous scrutiny. Such cannot be said for the BOM.

Add to that the claims of any of the descendants of the ancient peoples of South, Central or North America being from the Middle East, do not bear out.

It is truly sad for folk such as yourself to continue to claim these things as true but some people will claim a lie as truth rather than admit to having been duped.
