I do not then make the claim that the only correctly translated book is BOM.

So you agree with the Mormon article of faith regarding the Bible? It is funny that some criticize Mormons for this article of faith, but they do not disagree with it. Go figure.

I also agree that the sun rises in the East. I am not a Mormom and NEVER plan on being one. Your comment is nonsensical and meaningless. ALL books which are translated are only as good as the translation which is dependent on the translator. Since the BOM was supposedly translated by Smith ( or channeled or whatever) I look to his abilities -—they do not exist. Moreover his supposed holy book is about the equivalent of the koran ( holy or otherwise). I will rely on scripture both new and old which has come to us in a more reliable fashion.

You faith in a book of fiction is interesting but of no real value. I am glad it helps you live “a good” life here and now. Ithas NO value for you in eternity
