While the meta discussions continue to be cute they obfuscate the reality that the Book of Mormon is historically inaccurate. Meta away I guess.
Whatever appears to be against the Book of Mormon is going to be overturned at some time in the future. So we can be pretty open minded.-charity 3/7/07

I avoid church religiously.
This isn't one of my sermons, I expect you to listen.

This is what you get when you use untrained, amateur 'Ghost Writers' such as Nephi etc. and a back room publishing house such as Joseph Smith enterprises.
Perhaps, for that difficult second book, God will consider using someone slightly more professional to script His memoirs...

I grabbed on this last night. Bond, you have to realize that the tipping point for each individual is different. What worked for you may not work for others.
If someone could write a meta-compendium, the issues could be addressed from nearly every conceivable angle.

I am having fun with this. I got done with Pilgrim's Progress, and just started with The Holy War. It has gotten so good, that I think I will initially just read.
