Repent, thou blind liars!

[_CaliforniaKid]

From MADB:

Critics of Nostradamas will never see anything in the quatrains he wrote, and those who do will never understand why they won’t. And such also is the case with Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon. The main difference is, the things Joseph Smith could not have known does not fall into that category. People who say that the Book of Mormon shows us nothing to convince us of its authenticity are blind, misleading or out-in-out duplicitous—and sometimes a combination of all three.
...
Most honest people can say, well, I can’t explain it, but I don’t believe it. (Sort of like the compelling accounts of people who claim to be reincarnations of historical personalities.) But, again, the archeological evidence and consistencies of the Book of Mormon are unassailable. One may choose not to believe the Book of Mormon even in light of such consistencies, but to deny them is another matter altogether.

It is telling that this "cold steel" guy compares Joseph Smith with Nostradamus. Nostradamus is an obvious fraud.

People who assert that the archeological evidence for the Book of Mormon is "unassailable" are speaking from profound ignorance.

You have to cut-and-paste it. MADB blocks link-clicks from MDB.

I think his point is that they're not the same, because there's little evidence for Nostradamus but there are tons of things Joseph could not have known that you'd have to be blind or a liar to dismiss.

Cold Steel continues to repeat wrong statements about the Millerites after I refuted them, so why am I not surprised.

That Cold Steel fella is a real piece of work. He's what you might call a "fire and brimstone" Mormon after the pattern of Brigham Young. He'd make a good Danite.
