He also gets plants wrong, that were not in the America's, and not one shred of evidence for any of the epic battles in the book of Mormon. So he knew about one thing, but got how many things wrong? No cotton in the new world, prior to European Colonization, how do you come to terms with that? No epic stone walled cities in the Eastern US, were did they go? There was no wheel, in the America's before european settlement. Not one Iron Arrow ever found anywhere!!! Let alone sword or tool!!!

Ok but what about the claims of horse drawn chariots, when there were no horses nor chariots in the new world, also mistaken, sheep, cattle, use of Iron in swords, tools, etc. When those animals were not in the america's prior to European settlement, wow he may of gotten on thing right. And that one thing is actual I think Islamic tradition, and the book of Mormon also seem to mix up Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, all three know about at this time. So not that amazing...

We have a playlist of "Mesoamerica and The Book of Mormon" which lays out a few reasons why this is the BOM geography that is accepted by most.

Why do you believe that Lehi's family settled in Central America?

The three atlars found by German archaeology and later verified by LDS scholars were carbon dated to 600-700BC which is in harmony with the book of Mormon.

The Book of Mormon is a true Record of ancient inhabitants that migrated to the Yukatan Peninsula.

Great video = in response to the "convert" questions below, I believe that about 70% of LDS church membership are converts. That would be (by far) the majority.

"being smart is not enough to see out of inherited delusions"- so you think you're smarter than Aquinas, Augustine, Tillich, Descartes, Kierkegaard, and Maimonides. Give me a break! And the "Mormon cult" label, just an intellectually dishonest and lazy cop out.

While the majority of Mormons are not converts, we have plenty brilliant Mormons who are. John Tvedtnes in these videos, is. I am not sure about the others. I know several apologists, scholars and professors who are adult converts. By putting a little into it, one wouldn't have to look far before running into several.
