Your reading comprehension skills lacking? I whined not. I stated the facts. Were you just looking for an excuse to use some photoshop pic? I like the Fluffy Tissue Unit wording on the side. That is pretty funny.

Your reading comprehension skills lacking?And it came to pass I whined not. I stated the facts.

There, fixed it for you a little. Since the bom is fiction you have not stated facts. Even Mormon General Authority and apologist Brigham H. Roberts notes the fiction. Roberts points to the impossibility of Lehi's three-day journey from Jerusalem to the shores of the Red Sea — a 170-mile trek on foot, with women and children along.He cites their arrival in America, the land "kept from all other nations," where they unaccountably find domesticated animals — "the cow and the ox [oxen are neutered bulls], and the ass and the horse, and the goat and the wild goat" (I Nephi 18:25, emphasis added). Roberts finds an amateurish repetition of the same plots with only the character changed. The book, he notes, attempts to outdo the Bible miracles and presents some incredible battle scenes. In one instance, 2060 "striplings" fought wars over a 4 - 5 year period without one being killed (Alma 56-58). This leads Roberts to ask: "Is all this sober history ... or is it a wondertale of an immature mind, unconscious of what a test he is laying on human credulity when asking men to accept his narrative as solemn history?" ( Studies of the Book of Mormon, p. 283).

Still waiting to hear from you when the nephite exhibit opens at the smithsonian - I hear it will be unreal.
