I suppose I should mention my bona-fides as a card carrying Jesus University Gadianton Scholar, earned through the This Is The Show correspondence degree program.

Wake me up when there's a peer reviewed paper about Book of Mormon archaeology.

Haven’t you heard? The only scholars who can peer review Book of Mormon scholarship are Book of Mormon sChOlArs. I’ll let you guess which smooth brained apologist crapped that little nugget out.

Hugh Nibley claimed he bumped into Adolf Hitler, Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill, Gertrude Stein, and the Grand Duke Vladimir Romanoff. Dishonesty is baked into Mormonism.

"Hey Dan!"

"Yeah Bill?"

"Come review my latest paper with a childish hidden acrostic!"

"Looks good to me, Bill! Perfect scholarship, as usual! Peer review passed! Lets go grab a beer!"

Still banging this drum? Why doesn't he take his findings to an academic journal, already?

I've been saying for months that this forum needs to set up its own Journal. We can just upload posts verbatim from here to there and we'll be in the running to compete with Interpreter.
You might be on to something. Billy Shears and his destruction of Rasmussen's Bayesian 69 accompanied by the death spiral would and could make an interesting journal.

It may be that the author of the Book of Mormon had a fondness for various uses of that and wrote that that appears more often than that does in the words of people not so enamored with that.

Yes the article is about the use of that in a time context which gives it a sort of flourish my sentence lacks.
