Joseph Smith Vindicated: PART II

The second part of the response to further criticisms. This part finishes up he points of part one and addresses the seeming discrepancy of facsimile one in the Book of Abraham being a clear derivation from the snsn/breathings text portion of the Joseph Smith Papyrus WHILE the actual text for the translation NOT coming from such EVEN THOUGH the text of the Book of Abraham, in the Book of Abraham translation, refers explicitly to "the representation at the commencement of this record."

Very good theory... I love your drawings to clarify it so that it has visual representations. My only issue with the Book of Abraham is why the hyrogliphs on the Kolob (facsimile 2), or head warmer, don't translate in any way with the translations presented by Joseph Smith?

Google an article titled Research on Hypocephali

It's a paragraph on the Maxwell Institute's website that explains that modern Egyptologists are not properly reading the Hypocephali when contrasted with actual ancient views of such. Facsimile 2 is considered to be a type of Hypocephali-papyrus that was often placed behind the head of those being interred in ancient Egypt.

ha ha ha ur justification for what u thought of the pics with boa is so grossly stretched, imangined, and far fetched! OMG u have bno idea how egyptian hyraglphs work do u? U r so far off base not because i say so but because ur theories have no evidence. ur faith will have to stay just that, while truth lingers on, lol wow is all i can say. very good imagination. of course u realise ur byu scholars are laughing at u!

The theories I present are hardly the only ones there are with regard to plausible explanations that would maintain the truthfulness of the Book of Abraham claims.

I'd also like to see you explain how it is 'hyraglphs' work seeing as you can't even spell the word correctly.

Please go through and try and systematically destroy what I've presented. If it's as easy as your bravado, mr. bravadovagueness, would claim then it should be a simple matter to show my errors beyond merely throwing in a few abstract descriptors and claiming I don't know how 'hyralphs' work.

[HiveRadical]

Perchance the funniest thing of your response is the intimation that one would need to know how hieroglyphs work to determine the plausibility of the scenario I present.

Thanks you can further explain how these are different from the breathings text? Im confused.

63

But if one or either of the ten virgins, after she is espoused, shall be with another man, she has committed adultery, and shall be destroyed; for they are given unto him to multiply and replenish the earth, according to my commandment, and to fulfil the promise which was given by my Father before the foundation of the world, and for their exaltation in the eternal worlds,

Joe Smith vindicated? exactly how?

he obviously didn't know Egyptian, "reformed" or otherwise

there is no way that his Egyptian alphabet & grammar would stand close scrutiny by Egyptologists or grammarians

you can check that out on the internet, then see Champollion's work or go to your local library & check out a book on Egyptian heroglyphics

regrettably, something that Joe Smith did not have access to

"hieroglphs!"  Sorry but responding to ur retarded video rebuttals and ur vague responses i was drinking and ur logic cracks me up, simply becuase u have very little! In response to ur inability to understand HIEROGLPHS ur theory in part 2 lacks merit. Hieroglphs never constructed and reconstructed as ur wild imagination would like to believe!
