I don't put the Book of Mormon in the same category as the other things you've listed. It seems to me that it deserves a bit more investigative work.

Re: How often "plates" are discussed here.
I note that you are linking to AI content. Again. I don’t blame you for it anymore. You realise that no real consequences are coming, despite the warnings. Sure, you might have to listen to another lengthy explanation about the board’s policy, but so what? That’s all that’s gonna happen.
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.

But it seemed to me that MG had found a loophole because he posted a link to A.I. material that is not on *this* board. The rule doesn't specifically prohibit one from doing so:

Specifically, his link would've been fine had he posted it within the A.I. megathread and not THIS thread.

I’m just devastated for Fibber. After all these years, discovering the anti-AI rules for the very first time must have hit him like a lightning bolt.

That's where things get rather messy, right?
The Book of Mormon makes it rather clear that we should not trust in the "arm of the flesh".

Re: How often "plates" are discussed here.
Can you explain what the phrase “arm of the flesh” means, specifically?
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.

Re: How often "plates" are discussed here.
MG claims that "Only God can. And not just ANY god...". Presumably he is referring to Mormon god. I'd like to see him justify that claim.Kishkumen wrote: ↑Tue Mar 24, 2026 6:22 pmAny of us can promise all kinds of benefits.
