We are not cowards. But we do get tired of the same old intellectual dishonesty that pervades the antiMormon world. As for the Book of Abraham, it is not possible for any criticism to bite until the missing papyri are discovered and the fact that the ancient Egyptians rigorously changed embarrassing history is accounted for, at least.
Intellectual Dishonesty????
Why not call out Hamblin and Peterson and ask them why they recruited Carla Ogden to fax them a quote from a fellow Maxwell Institute author, in a publication that both already had in their possession, and then try to sell it as an authoritative statement from the first presidency!!!
Then ask Provo and Hamblin why they lied about for all these years. And finally, ask Provo why he now suddenly can't recall the source of this supposed letter/fax after all his certainty to it just a short time ago!
Intellectual Dishonesty??
It goes to the credibility of the only message board that continues to protect them as well BC. But perhaps you subscribe to that type of behavior.
Is it any wonder why, as Provo has stated, FARMS\MI is ignored by the secular academic community?!!!
