BIG Shoutout to Symmachus from the Backyard Professor

My take on Dan Peterson's Calgary Canada fireside Thursday night. I use and thank Symmachus's stellar research to destroy Peterson's information. Alma is toast. Nahom is toast. The Book of Mormon archaeology and scholarship is toast. It's only an hour long presentation.

Yep! I am right there with 'em! Does this mean we have established doctrine now, since we do actually make up "THREE WITNESSES" to all this... :D And by our mouths it shall be established. I'm just sayin'......

The only complaint I have so far is the way you do your fingernails. Good God man, it looks like you slice and dice and don't properly round them out or file them. You don't bite your nails, do you, Philo?

Hmmm. And you need to wash ur hair. Same goes for RFM but he doesn't have much to wash anymore. One big wind will blow it away!

Thanks, BYP, for your interesting presentation. I was thinking for a moment that Dr. Peterson was calling you to provide a real-time rebuttal, but that was not the case. I couldn’t help looking over your shoulder at your library. I think I recognized a few books by their appearance (Quinn, R.L. Anderson festschrift, Joseph Smith papers).

Is anyone aware of any LDS apologist responding to this? (I haven't had time to sit down and watch the whole BYP video yet, apologies if it's addressed there)

there are none who I am aware of. And if they actually could, they most certainly would have by now! I mean, if they really thought Alma was significant and important they would defend it to the death. Instead they demur, and it's patently obvious why. There are still plenty of greatly ignorant Mormons apologists can bamboozle, and do.

Noel should bring it up in the comment section since he’s one of the few that hasn’t been banned yet.
