I wonder if Kieth Ereksen used the same strategy on each specific problem in Mormonism.
Gordon's logo on his shirt is FAIR Faith Reconstruction. Ha ha ha.

Premise 1. Eyewitness testimony is notoriously unreliable.
Premise 2. The best evidence for the Book of Mormon is eyewitness testimony.
Conclusion. Therefore, the best evidence for the Book of Mormon is notoriously unreliable.

I watched two of them and it seems the same three or four people were there. And the quality of their presentations make it clear that they were in it for the free tickets to Rome.

He's never made a dime from apologetics. He just gets to go to Rome for free and rehash a talk from a decade ago to a nearly empty room.

I can't fathom why they allowed this to happen and furthermore film it. Why didn't they put out press releases to gather the faithful? This is one of the most embarrassing moments for them to publish.

I’m pleased to report that, as of about twenty-four hours ago, the streaming version of Saturday’s FAIR conference had received 415 views in Italian and 346 views in English. (I assume that the figures may have increased since then.) It seems that the conference was well worth doing.

Yeah, and what % of those views came from this board? It’s got to be at least 10%.
