Exchange with Smoot re Book of Abraham
I had an exchange with Smoot on Dan's blog regarding Abraham's use of camels. It gave me a chance to inquire his view on fac 2 since he is an aspiring Egyptologist

No way. Bukake Kid is merely a nickname forced onto him by those making fun of his obsession with bukake.

Stephen has a habit of engaging people on different platforms and then erasing them a while later. I think it was Bill Reel he was talking to. He accused people in the thread of "spreading Bukake"...then erased it. It he was then asked how he knew the term....He blamed it on the Urban dictionary. I think Bill saved the screen shot.

How embarrassing. We all know Mormon men never watch porn. He must be the first known one ever.Rivendale wrote: ↑Fri Mar 25, 2022 12:52 pmStephen has a habit of engaging people on different platforms and then erasing them a while later.

Wonder if he repented with his bishop?

Re: Exchange with Smoot re Book of Abraham
My recollection is that the phrase was actually "tapir bukkake," and that Smoot said it in a moment of frustration/anger. Critics were yet again reveling in the Book of Mormon's lack of historical evidence, and making fun of the whole "horse actually means tapir" apologetic. Smoot was involved in the conversation and stormed off in a huff, saying something like "Have fun with your tapir bukkake!" as a final retort.
