You are deflecting John. Since you have not denied the history of the writing of the bom, nor have you countered the deception produced in D&C 10, you seek to divert the issue. The answer is clear for those who want to see John, Smith used multiple sources to patch together his fictional bom account, then poorly lied about how it was written. Address the facts John, you've been lied to by your very own prophets on how the book was written.
I HAVE addressed the facts on how the book was written. I called attention to the exact sequence in which the book was written. Running the sequence backwards, we have printed first edition, printer's manuscript, dictated manuscript, Joseph speaking the words he translated from the plates, and plates, whose existence I painstakingly showed were examined by eight witnesses who turned over all of the leaves filled with engraved characters except for the sealed portion. That is the indication of their words.
I further told the truth that none of the witnesses denied their printed testimonies, thus establishing the sequence of engraved plates, orally translating the engravings, dictated manuscript, printer's manuscipt, and first printing of a book that has been translated into many languages, fulfilling the witnesses words "Be it known unto all nations, kindreds, tongues, and people, unto whom this work shall come," which of course mirrors one of the stated puposes of the Book of Mormon: "to the convincing of the Jew and Gentile that Jesus is the Christ, the Eternal God, manifesting Himself unto all nations."
