I would propose there is nothing more dangerous and yes I think we all three did begin as apologists for the book of Abraham I think Shulem and Kevin are both way beyond me however. But I'm catching up on them. I was always doing work on the facsimiles especially number two. That one fascinated me for whatever reason perhaps because it reminded me of Mandalas. And I never did look at the actual relationship of the papyri and the Kirtland Egyptian papers and the Gael. But now that I finally unraveled the confusion in my mind on these issues, it is more or less an open-and-shut case, and I'm going to be very serious, I would seriously hate to be an apologist right now.
