But 19th century men who are less acquainted with ancient customs and form may not easily tell the difference and may assume it was customary dress for men in ancient Egypt.
So if Joseph were to find himself in ancient Egypt, he would be uncertain about who to hit on?

On the contrary, it was his nature to hit on as many women as he could get away with. Joseph loved women and the more the merrier. It’s ironic that he misinterpreted the women in the Facsimile as men! When the Catalyst theory becomes the official doctrine of the Church you will see how apologists will posit that Smith knew they were really women and he only used them to serve as examples to illustrate his story. But don’t worry, *that* apologetic is DOA. Trust me. There is nobody on this earth more qualified and capable of destroying the Catalyst theory than Paul Osborne. :twisted:

You mean like from that Beach Boys song, Bob, Bob, Bob,... Bob, Bob Turan? Just singing it makes you want to dance like an Egyptian.

Nope. I don't walk by faith. I walk by sight and knowledge grounded in intelligence of things as they *were* and as they *are*. I am 100% sure the name “Bob” is not contained in the hieroglyphic label above the head of the goddess Isis. None of the nine characters inscribed therein signify the required “b” sound you suggest to formulate the fictitious name for Bob. It’s not there. It doesn’t exist. I’m telling you this in the exact way and manner I would tell Joseph Smith -- your interpretation is dead wrong. The name “Bob” is not found anywhere on the vignette, period, end of story.
  • Joseph Smith *was* wrong.
  • The Church *is* wrong.
That is an absolute PERFECT truth. Amen.

Then would you believe, "Fred"?

No. Absolutely, positively not. Nor will I eat green eggs and ham.
