Mormon doctrine states that the book of mormon is true

If so, where are the bom lands (there are 20+ different theories)?
Where is the archaeological evidence?
Why doesn’t DNA support the bom story?
Why does the bom discuss old world animals and crops, while ignoring new world animals and crops?

Certainly, it the bom is true, objective proof will be found for the above. If none is present - then there is a strong likelyhood that smith lied and made the book up. Is that objective enough for you.

Dear Godzilla,

Why are you trying to persuade me that the Book of Mormon is a work of fiction? I already said that. In fact, earlier, I said that it was likely almost entirely made up by Mr. Smith, with perhaps a little bit of a push by Satan.

I have already stated that uniquely LDS beliefs are objectively false.

Nonetheless, whatever evidence you may present, many people believe the teachings of the LDS religion, and as far as I can tell, quite sincerely.

Although their belief is false, in professing it, they don't lie. They say what is false, but believing it's true.
