What if Dr. Gee were to assert that all the missing answers were contained in the Kinderhook Plates which Joseph was unable to finish channeling due to that mob in Carthage?

Gee can assert whatever the hell he wants and idealize anything that suits his fancy to keep his stupid testimony of the dumb gospel. But he cannot manipulate Egyptian history to line up with Smith's biblical chronology. That is impossible.

The gig is up. it's over for the Book of Abraham and the apologists can go to hell.

Shulem, does Mormon lore have the entire African continent being unpopulated until Ham's daughter came and spread the cursed dark skin through her descendants? That would certainly alter the timeline for the rest of the world's inhabitants, considering the genesis for human development was in the Rift Valley of Africa.

Joseph Smith's origin story for how and when Egypt was founded and established was something he concocted from prevailing beliefs of his day and is totally founded in biblical chronology which dates the population of the earth to have begun anew at about 2400 BC. Only the 8 souls on the ark survived the universal flood that baptized the earth and destroyed all life outside the craft. The whole purpose of taking animals two by two was to preserved animal life. But the whole story is so stupid and full of scientific holes as is Smith's revelation that Egypt BEGAN thereafter. This alone is enough to dismiss the Book of Abraham as a fraudulent story made up by a conman and a liar.

The Mormons can do nothing to support the idea that Egypt was founded in 2300 BC other than to quote from the Book of Abraham and refer to the biblical timeline. Everyone has overlooked and ignored this! Nobody talks about it. Not even the critics. It's really a sad thing. Critics would rather talk about how fat the roll was or how long it had to be. But that is not necessary. Let's talk about how and when Egypt was really founded. That destroys Joseph Smith's Book of Abraham faster than anything. The theories of how Smith translated suddenly don't matter anymore. It doesn't matter how he translated because he didn't translate a damn thing about ancient Egypt. He was blowing smoke out of his ass.
