Re: Book of Mormon Geography
"Gosh darn it!!! Stop asking me about Book of Mormon geography!!!" Critics of the Book of Mormon will never stop enquiring at the hands of leaders of the Church about where the Book of Mormon took place. We know absolutely that early leaders of the Church confirmed their belief of the final war lea...

I have read enough of your analysis to trust your comments and recommendations Baby, Surely also, you can trust yourself when you look at Laurie & Whittle maps of North America and Arabia and conclude that a river is a river and a bay is a bay. Zoom in and see for yourself -- there are no rivers le...

Re: VIEWS
Unusual threads seem to catch a lot of extra interest. This thread has more than average but not wildly large numbers. It may be an accurate count. You are communicating with some people. I'm not convinced the thread has that kind of genuine traffic. I think something may be amiss with the counter ...

It's hard to imagine Joseph Smith mistaking the gulf or a bay in the Red Sea for a river on a Laurie & Whittle map. I don't buy it! Please refer to the EXPLANATION in the lower right corner of the North America map in which Smith would have relied on as would any map user. Several symbols and explan...

And so, Vogel does provide an interesting perspective of a map that Smith may or may have not perused. We cannot say. However, shall we look at a sister map of the one we have considered in this thread? It's by the same map maker, Laurie & Whittle, and was issued out of London during the same year, ...

Re: Valley of Lemuel in Arabia?
Ah.
Delmarva is to New York like Arabia is to Israel -- proximity through mobility in a back and forth fluid-like zone. THAT is what Smith visualized!
I'm glad you get it, Moksha. Your eyes have been opened.

Re: Valley of Lemuel in Arabia?
I think the river Laman was a fantasy the same as the river in Lehi's dream of the Tree of Life. The Book of Mormon is total fantasy!

Maps
I said the maps were too early because they didn't even include the Gulf of Aqaba. The cartographers on ships passed the Straits of Tiran, and saw the Islands and didn't get closer, assuming it was a bay. So, how could Joseph Smith use a map that didn't have the fountain of the Red Sea? It's reason...
