This is a religion-related thread - if you consider the mainstream tenets of Christianity to be myths, then begone, troll! We are not here to tolerate your point of view interfering with the bases for the discussion.

Your participation is unwanted.

You misunderstand the meaning of the word mythology. It doesn’t mean something that is necessarily untrue, it means a body of stories that have great significance within a religious belief system.

My point is that the Gold Plates can be believed in without visible evidence in the same way the Garden of Eden, Moses’s stone tablets, etc., can be believed in. It is a matter of faith, not physical evidence.
