NONE BLAINE: Serious research has just gotten under way, and already, Nahom (NHM)as a place name mentioned in the BoM has been located about where it should have been on the Arabian Peninsula. The place Bountiful has been positively identified. There are MANY places in Meso-America under investigation, showing much promise. The gold plates, from which the BoM was translated, were intended to be an abridgement of more extensive records, so it is no surprise that so few clues were given of exact places. Of the clues that were given, at least three books have been written, all pretty much agreeing on places in particular and general territory involved. The Rio Grijalve River in Meso America fits in every way the descriptions given of the Sidon River of the BoM. The entire area near there also fits. Give us a break, Kevin, we will find it all and more. Meanwhile, you and other nay-sayers and doubting Thomases will just have to be shown to believe, while those who showed faith and patience w/o absolute proof will not be ashamed. Which reminds me, did I ask you what Jesus looked like while he sojourned on the earth as a mortal? He once said, "If you have seen me, you have seen the Father." So, what do they look like? Black people insist he was Black. And what about Moses? or any other great prophet? They all exist in your imagination, Kevin, and each to his own where this is concerned. Yet you claim you believe in him, and you cited an entiore page of evidences of places, etc. Is that the basis for your testimony? Mormons will all tell you they have received a testimony from the Holy Ghost that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and need no such "proof" as you have shown your own beliefs and testimony to rest on. They say the same of truthfulness of the BoM. Which points up a fundamental difference between Morns as Christians, and those who profess more traditional Christianity. As Jesus said to Peter after he asked Peter, " He replied, "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the Living God." And Jesus then revealed to him that he, Peter, only knew that by revelation, not by means of the testimony of men (flesh and blood). You have already many times denied the possiblity of revelation beyond what is in the Bible, so what now, Kevin? ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
