Nice how you call others to meet a standard that you yourself will not meet.

You can claim to worship Jesus and what ever false idols you choose to. In the end Exu is a reality you can not avoid.

This invitation to spend 2 hours with me ...

Up to now, I had 5 minute for lunatics - in general.
Would it be enough?

(My 5 minute is worth of 20 page reading in Hungarian, 10-12 in English or German - not something to skim, something to apprehend.)

Thank you bbbinmd for posting this information. I found you research and insights very fascinating. Unfortunate that some choose to mock. Despite that, please post any updates you may have in the future.

. . . The AT script was derived from Egyptian hieroglyphics but was NOT written in the oral language of Egyptian, but was based on the oral grammatical structure of the Hebrew language. It is NOT an alphabetic script (with sounds that combine to form words) but is a logographic script which carries meaning--thus the message is NOT in the specific sound of a particular word, but in the meaning that is associated with it. There are only 20 basic characters, but they are combined in many different arrangements to vary the specific meaning of each character. The meaning of each of the 20 characters carries through the Hebrew spoken language, the Egyptian hieroglyphic script and the English translation.
The script is a form of shorthand, but all forms of shorthand can use only a few basic shapes (curves, lines of various lengths and directions, etc.). Thus all modern shorthand systems will have some similarities to some of the the 20 basic CT characters.
. . .
The first part of the message was written by Mormon (the first 4 lines) while the last part (3 lines) was written by Moroni.
Its content is similar to the Title Page of the Book of Mormon and it was that similarity that led me to the translation. But, the CT has MUCH more content than the Title Page of the Book of Mormon. As it was written and later copied by Joseph Smith Jr, the CT was intended by Mormon and Moroni to be the Title Page of the Book of Mormon as Mormon originally arranged it. The translation of the CT version of the Title Page was lost when Harris lost 216 pages of the Book of Mormon manuscript.
One can see some of my work on that translation on the web site reocities.com/bbbinil.
That web site is old and the translation shown at that site will be slightly different from the way I would word it today, based on new insights received over the last 10 years. But the basic message has not changed.
The CT is a testimony to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ, the son of God and that it was a gift by the power of God to his covenant people.

Hi Blair!!
You and Wade Brown made a real contribution to CT studies back in 2001 when you each independently discovered that the CT consists of at least two large chiasms.
I am not sure, however, why there would be two Title Pages (even if one was lost with the 116 pages). Nor am I clear on why you think that the CT has only 20 basic characters and is logographic. What is more, your translation does not seem to reflect the chiastic structure which you and Brown have discerned. Finally, your translation seems repetitious and banal at best. I have provided a sample analysis below for those who are interested:

How do I upload these photos?

I'm sorry. Apparently the CT "Caractors" are not a recognized font here. I'll have to do a scan and create photos.
