But the problem with The Book of Abraham should be a major issue for *everyone* in terms of hard evidence (and also reason and rationality).

In light of the title, this is a terrific pun! I laughed long and hard.....

Great post Grudunza! The Book of Abraham was an early weight on my shelf too. I was in church in my teens one sunday, bored in sacrament meeting again, and was leafing through my triple combo, looking at the facsimiles and the questionable explanations Joseph Smith gave for the pictures. The one that made me think was interpretation no. 11 to facsimile no. 2:

Fig. 11. Also. If the world can find out these numbers, so let it be. Amen.

What did that mean exactly? What importance would one number over another have in terms of God? Is 3 better than 2? Is it a representation of infinity and why would knowing this be significant? It seemed odd, but as a teenager I didn't have the ability to make the connection to perhaps Joseph Smith was just making things up on the fly. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/scriptures/pgp/abr/fac-2?lang=eng

Also, there is a giant penis in SLC that stands erect and will continue to do so in service of the brethren:



However, it is difficult to find a picture with the frank and beans in full view. This one is castrated:



Here is one of the beans, alone, and obscured by trees:



Why hide their prized possession from the world at large when one need only go to SLC to see it in full, erect glory?
