Spotted a typo: "I am Osirs!" Should be "I am Osiris!"

Jesus H Christ! I Can't believe I did that. I'll have to fix it later --I don't remember the password to log on. lol

I find it amazing that the LDS church is still pretending that make-believe Hebrew Abraham is sitting atop an Egyptian throne in the image, form, and name of Osiris. The LDS church has no shame for their sacrilegious slander against the ancient Egyptian religion. The LDS church is guilty of slandering an entire race in an effort to supplant perverted lies in a modern day cover-up of international proportions.

Shame on the LDS church! Their leaders and apologists are wretched scum of the earth. Liars, all of them.

True story: When my youngest son was 11 or so, he learned about Egyptian mythology in school. He showed me what he had learned about Anubis, Osiris, and so on, and one of the things he had was a copy of the typical funeral scene depicted in facsimile one. I brought up the Joseph Smith Papyri original (without the Smith insertions) and asked my son what he thought. He said that Anubis' head was missing and that you could only see the wing from the bird representing Osiris. I then showed him the facsimile and asked him what he thought. He said, "That's stupid. Whoever did that didn't know anything."

To this day, my son is fascinated (borderline obsessed) with ancient history and religion. But even at 11, he knew BS when he saw it.

I'm confident that professor Hugh Nibley determined the same thing and drew the same conclusions. Nibley knew early on and full well that the Facsimile Explanations tendered by Joseph Smith were not correct Egyptian interpretations or translations. It must have been even more painful when the church recovered the lost papyri in the 1960's. Apologetic Book of Abraham spinning went into high gear, these spins and apologetic approaches were all done for the sole purpose to defend the church and maintain testimony that Joseph Smith was a prophet and translator.

Nibley was paid by the church to carry on a life of lying. He knew he was lying. He knew his apologetics was full of holes and that overwhelming evidence proved Joseph Smith faked his translations. He knew it all along but lied to keep his job. Nibley loved his job at BYU and his worldly status more than he loved the truth. He lived a lie and died a liar. He sold his soul to the church.

I'm not going to make any moral judgments about Hugh Nibley, but I've said before that it was when I realized I had sold my conscience and really my soul for the church that the shelf broke, and I knew I had to leave.

that's awesome. Give them the tools, and they learn for themselves, right?

At the time, I didn't tell him who the stupid person was. But I remember thinking that it was so obvious an 11 year old could see it.

For some reason, I got a vision of Hugh standing center stage as the ringmaster .. and his words ringing loud and clear 'Welcome to the Grand Illusion, pay the price, get your tickets for the show"
