No, but God is. In fact, God--the one who gave Joseph the translation--is the most profoundly knowledgeable Egyptologist who ever has or ever will exist--infinitely more so than even the Egyptians themselves.
That's the thing these Mopologists always conveniently choose to leave out.
"Finally, for your rather strange idea that miracles are somehow linked to the amount of gay sexual gratification that is taking place would require that primitive Christianity was launched by gay sex, would it not?"

All fun aside: The person designated as No. 6 in Facsimile No. 3 as published by the church in the Times and Seasons is reduced to the level of a slave. Mormon revelation from its blasphemous press given to the whole world declares that a god of Egypt is little more than a slave.
This is not acceptable then and it's not acceptable today. The church needs to detract this horrible declaration or continue to face the consequences that will hound it until it makes that change. The church has no choice but to make that change. The sooner the better!

At some point the white flag needs to come out on the Book of Abraham. If your find with the plate does not do it, nothing will. I am just sad that my parents passed without realizing just how deceived they were.
I predict we will see a response from the mopologists, stating
"As an add-on to my previous comment, I don't consider it at all unusual for people to modify images in an attempt to illustrate a particular thing. It is also certainly possible for the same image to be used to convey very different things. How many times have you seen an image of a famous figure with a caption that isn't a quote from that person?"
unbelievable

Well Shulem, I think we now know what the official Mopologist position on Facsimile 3 is going to be and you are not going to believe this.
I hope you are sitting down right now. Robert Smith just explained that the figure was wearing an Anubis mask, but Joseph took the mask off? What...The...Freak...

In all fairness to the Saints, they were not reducing Anubis to slave status because he was an Egyptian God, but rather the Saints assigned him slave status because he was drawn in black ink on the papyrus. Big difference. One motive shows religious disrespect and the other shows racism. Anubis might have been given accolades despite his darker skin if he were known to be a polygamist. Early Mormons showed a great deal of reverence for "Mohammedans". Brigham Young might have even granted Anubis a place out by the Salt Flats near the colony of Hawaiian converts.
