For instance, I cannot accept anything developed from the book of mormon, because it does not have archaeological support.

A little something to help you out on that score:
Newly Found Altars from Nahom

Of course, I wouldn't recommend archaeological evidence as a guide as to the authenticity of the Bible or the Book of Mormon, but rather a witness from God.

I did not click on the link.

When you say you “wouldn’t recommend archaeological evidence as a guide as to the authenticity of the Bible
or the Book of Mormon, but rather a witness from God”, I see it differently. The archaeological evidence supporting the new testament documents is quite strong. If it weren’t, I would never have accepted the historicity of Christ. The fact that the archaeological evidence for mormon assertions is weak is strong evidence to me that it is not worth pursuing.
