A trip down memory lane featuring the notorious LDS apologist Hugh Nibley and his slanderous statements he made about the sacred Egyptian papyrus that Joseph Smith brutally assaulted is in order.

Ensign March 1976
Dr. Hugh Nibley, professor emeritus of Ancient Scripture, Brigham Young University - link:

What, exactly, is the purpose and significance of the facsimiles in the book of Abraham?

Nibley was always reticent when it came to Anubis in Facsimile No. 3 and the idea of him being a slave according to Joseph Smith was not something he was anxious to discuss. I think he had a problem with it and for very good reason. I have to wonder what Hugh would have to say regarding the chopped out snout in the woodcut lead plate? What kind of apologetic drivel would he dream up? The man had no shame. He was a liar for the Lord and the kingpin and mouthpiece for Brigham Young University which to this day continues to make a mockery of the ancient Egyptian religion.

That was an excellent summation and congratulations on a winning number. I concur, a 10 is correct.

By the way, there is an "e" at the end of my name.

For what it’s worth, Paul, I agree with Jersey Girl. Great site! Kudos on a job well done. :biggrin:

10+1 - The +1 is for the other ear I think was there. If you look closely it seems like a divet exists where the ear should've been.

Every record...falsified, every book rewritten...every statue...has been renamed or torn down, every date...altered...the process is continuing...minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Ideology is always right.

Oh sure, bring the ear into it after I've already posted my magnum opus. :rolleyes:
