@LDSapologist71 You've been told that anything that disagrees with the church is anti-Mormons with an agenda to deceive. Of course you'll keep spouting that crap. Why can't you people just have an ounce of intellectual integrity instead of trying to dance around the facts to appease your emotions.

Question to a learned Mormon:

Should not everything written by Joseph Smith be totally and completely true if we are to follow his teachings?

ANTI MORMONS DEBUNKED AGAIN!

[MrMFHORN]

FACT: YOU CANNOT GET A RELIABLE DNA SAMPLE FURTHER BACK THAN A THOUSAND YEARS. THE BOOK OF MORMON PEOPLE GO BACK THOUSANDS SO THERE IS NO WAY TO GET A OLD ISRAELITE (JACOBITE) SAMPLE TO COMPARE WITH IN THE FIRST PLACE. . That said, there is no need for these longwinded video's.

Are you guys actually listening to what this guy is saying..... Ive watched the series of these videos.... He isn't making any sense... and he contradicts himself constantly.

@tamsanqa11 The LDS church has admitted the book of abraham text was not on the papyri. This isn't anything from an anti-mormon library. I go straight to the source! Falsehoods disprove themselves quite readily. :-)

@FastbackJon go back to your anti-mormon library and get something better than that old boy! perverters of the truth have been including this nonsense for ages in anti mormon literature. The Book of Abraham was not with the fragments that were found in 1966. You are making these anti-mormon authors a lot of money. What they write is not scholarly and is so extremely biased. Read something with some truth in it... like the Book of Mormon.. or the Book of Abraham for that matter :)

But No One can prove that they also have Japanese ancestry.

If the tests cannot find any mtDNA from their Japanese grandmother, who is alive & well, how reliable are those tests in finding Israelite DNA from 2,000 yrs ago? The lack of Japanese mtDNA in those children does NOT mean that they are not part Japanese.

The lack of Israelite DNA in the American Indians does not disprove the Book of Mormon....end...

Our 2nd daughter married a man whose father's paternal line is Danish, and his mother's line is Japanese. They have two sons & a daughter. All three children have the mtDNA of their mother, which is my wife's mtDNA, which is from Sweden. The boys have their father's Y-chr, which is from Denmark.

Using the same tests that Murphy & Southerton used, one can prove that those children have Swedish ancestry, and that the boys have Danish ancestry too....cont.....

@jesushatesyoutoo

The DNA used to condemn the BoM is mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Women pass mtDNA to their children. All of us got our mtDNA from our mothers. The other genetic marker being used is the Y-chromosone (Y-chr), which is passed by men to their sons.

Tom Murphy & Simon Southerton say the BoM is false because Middle East mtDNA cannot be found among the American Indians. Southerton also says the same thing about the Y-chr.....cont....

@Sk8er408 Oh, they were white, is that what you are saying?

@jesushatesyoutoo

They are not middle eastern to our standard of today.
