Re: Numbers...
The is the classic crackpot paradigm: Scientists can't explain everything, so the crap I make up is just as good. Indeed. I'm sure you've noticed how pathologically often both Mopologists and rank-and-file Mormons employ it to explain away contradictions within their scriptures and teachings. It's ...

Re: Lars Nielsen's "How the Book of Mormon Came to Pass"
Hope you’re doing well, Shades. Thanks for all you do to keep the lights on around here. 🙂 You're welcome. My problems with Hales are similar. His conclusions regarding polygamy are especially problematic, because he draws every possible conclusion except the obvious one: Joseph's libido inspired h...

Re: Mormons Made Great Nazis
That's fine, but Herr Krause still doesn't qualify for Hitler's "inner circle," since they probably never met each other. To qualify as being in the inner circle, you and Hitler have to have each other on "speed dial," so to speak.

I'm going to have to ask for a reference for that claim. Simply being a member of the SS was a far, FAR cry from being in Hitler's inner circle.Everybody Wang Chung wrote: ↑Mon May 13, 2024 12:46 amSome faithful Mormons even made it into Hitler's inner circle.

Re: Lars Nielsen's "How the Book of Mormon Came to Pass"
In my experience, Hales is a frustrating interlocutor. I am sure he means well, and he is not a bad guy, but his tactics are pretty slippery. He straw mans his opponents, and his own arguments are recycled. His Joseph couldn’t have done this ergo God arguments are his usual go-to approach. My probl...
