Very interesting claims...
river in Arabia, Bountiful, temples, and THIS: As knowledge of the ancient world grows, detail after detail in the Book of Mormon is being substantiated. An avalanche of information has been uncovered in the last 10 or 15 years.

All this wonderful information..it should be easy-peasey to post links to sources to back up these claims. That's something most of the "antis" do...substantiate claims with links to sources.

There also has to be a stipulation, it has to be independent sources.

Mormon's can write books that say whatever they want about anything dug up out of the ground, (they have), just as any religious group can.

But to stand up to independent scrutiny from outside sources is the true test of factual, substantial evidence.

For example, multiple sources have examined ruins at Masada, Herod's temple, the streets of Bethlehem. While forming various opinions on the divinity of Christ or the exact roles of others, there is no denying that these places mentioned in the bible indeed exist and in many palaces we can walk among the ruins even now. An Atheist is not going to deny the existence of Nazareth just because he doesn't believe in Christ, the place is real.

We are not talking about faith here, but thing that are tangible, that “sustain” the BOM.

If it is true and correct, this would be an easy task.

Ask Elsie. He/she knows this is true. That’s why he/she has adopted the “demon” argument. Yeah, that’s the ticket . . . demons.
