Keep up the good work LDS you are starting to convince me that you have a point sorta.Lol I would so like to join that thread but it is so delicious the way it is.

Sure. I'll debate you. My position: You don't have a clue what the latest scholarship is on the matter, for or against the Book of Abraham.

Please prove me wrong by listing three new contributions to the Book of Abraham debate--contributions that have been made in the the last three years--for and against the Book of Abraham.

For the Book of Abraham
1.
2.
3.

Against
1.
2.
3.

Also... please list two works related to the topic that critics/apologists anticipate being published soon. One of each will suffice.

Thanks.

Still waiting Mr. BrianH.


Come on over to the "Celestial" board and join the debate already under way. Perhaps you can show us some reasons to think that your so-called "prophet" translated the "Book of Abraham" correctly when he identified the sons of Horus as "Elkenah, Libnah, Mahmackrah and Korash".

I can hardly wait to see yet another Mormon trying to deflect and evade the questions while trying to change the subject.

That's also my opinion, except he isn't even picking on the small kids. He's attacking a fairly simple, obvious issue with Mormonism with all the gusto of a second-rate bully who's found someone who isn't able to stand up to him and barely realizes he's bullying them.

Personally I like having him around, though. It reinforces my growing belief in karma. It wasn't that long ago an element of this board was clamouring for more christian participation and rebuking anyone who said most christians were just as likely to be the same mouth-breather morons one finds among the amateur Mormon apologists. Karma, man. It's making a believer out of me.

[off], because today is Silvester
Silvester (also spelled szilveszter, sylvester or sylwester) is used in some countries as a name for New Year's Eve, including Austria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Luxembourg, Poland, Slovakia, Switzerland and Slovenia.
The origin of the name is Saint Sylvester's Day in the Roman Catholic Church,[1] named after Pope Sylvester I,[2] who died on 31 December 335.

It is mutual.

Image They are Frakk, Lukrécia and Szerénke

Frakk is a fictional Hungarian cartoon character, a dog living his life with a typical, sometimes ironically depicted family. Frakk, the dog shares a home with Uncle Carlos (Károly bácsi) and Aunt Vilma (Vilma néni), two Hungarian pensioners along with their two cats, Lukrécia and Szerén, one of them black and the other one a white cat. Due to the ancient rivalry the three constantly get into conflicts coupled by the strict attitude of Aunt Vilma, who favors the two cats as opposed to Uncle Carlos, who definitely takes the dog's side.

You are an evil (black) cat called Lucretia (Lukrécia)

Unfortunately, I can't find that cartoon with English audio, or subtitle.
Here is one of that cartoons.
The title is "Christmas angels".
Everybody want to scent, what to buy to the others for christmas gift.
Everybody hires the other to sniff the third party's desires.
At the end, Uncle Carlos get a chair (for the dog), and Aunt Vilma get a padded swing (for the cats).
I think anybody can translate - by holy or less holy spirit - the text, without urimthummim.
The characters are speaking for themselves. The talking styles are vivid. These characters are living ones. I know many representatives of them, even I am of one.

Please listen the black cat. Don't care the words but the tone and the stress.
An incarnation of Lucretia MacEvil.
