the poor Hill Cumorah is the real victim because the one in New York has no archeological evidence and the one to the south has not been shown to exist.
I just love how succinct you put this.
If I ever meet Daniel Peterson, the first thing I want to ask him is how many Hills Cumorah he thinks there are.
I thought it a good idea to add a couple of special visual aids to help people better see the big picture. I want you to see what Joseph Smith saw in his mind's eye when he told the tale of Lehi's voyage.
The tip of Virginia on the Delmarva peninsula is the land of Nephi.
And here is the big picture of the peninsula starting with the narrow neck to the north which leads to Bountiful and further south into Zarahemla:
Are you convinced that this is the geography in which Joseph was imagining in the Book of Mormon?

That would make Zarahemla the part of Maryland to the west of Chesapeake Bay.

1. Land of Nephi is in the long tail being separated from the main body.
2. Zarahemla is at about Midpoint in the peninsula
3. Bountiful is up further just south of the narrow neck
It might be helpful, Shulem, if you overlaid on a map, the exact areas where the Book of Mormon narrative took place. As you can see we’re having a hard time tracking where everything took place. Like, you just put circles or x’s on a map with a concise description next to it.

Doc-baby,
If it's okay with you, I'll just post a simple display to help better understand and see the big picture. I'm just not up to doing a lot of detailing on a map right now. There doesn't seem to be enough interest on this board to motivate me to do so. So screw it.
Next, I will drop a pair of bombs to NUKE the apologists and demonstrate how to properly read the Book of Mormon and unlock the mystery of the NARROW NECK as I have explained earlier in this thread.
