You have to expect FAIR or FARMS to respond in this manner. But here's the issue:

Both Dan Peterson and the other gentlemen in this video are generalizing the Bible vs. BoM video. But they don't give any specific examples of where the video is in error and specific arguments against them.

You can summarize this response by saying "They're wrong, they're anti-mormon and they don't know what they're talking about". That's a problem b/c again, this video isn't addressing specific claims.

As it has been posted many times before, this is only their opinions on the video. This is only a portion of what the video is, and they do address a few things. If you want a full rebuttal, go to the FAIR website fairlds dot org, and on the left hand side of the page, click on the link. If we were to make a video discussing the problems with the anti-Mormon video, the video would be 10 hours long

The float was decorated with musical notes, wooded dolls representing different cultures and signs containing the languages common in the stake — English, Spanish, Karen and Nepali.

As the children moved along the parade route in matching white T-shirts, they used American sign language to communicate the words to some songs. Signing the words is something they can all do together, said Sister Wagstaff.

Seated near Elder Jensen was Frederick N. Larsen, president and prophet of the Remnant Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

"It's a group that has special meaning for me in terms of the individuals involved and the institutions from which they come," said William P. MacKinnon, president-elect of the association, in introducing those seated at the head table.

You are watching one clip of an entire video. This clip is called "opinions of the experts", that is all it is, their opinions. If you would like to hear more specific rebuttals, you'll have to watch the entire video, which is only a supplement to already published rebuttals by Brant Gardner and David Bokovoy.

Man, Joseph Smith for not having any education and not even being able to write a good letter really did a great job writing the Book of Mormon. I mean he must have been sitting in Liberty Jail in the dead of winter thinking "all according to my plan" HAHA yeah right! Wouldn't he have quite a long time ago if he was parading a book he wrote or if he knew it wasn't real. Why give your life for a work of fiction. Joseph Smith was a prophet and the Book of Mormon is true.

It teaches in the bible that mans heart is corrupt and wicked who can be trusted?..Turn back to the christ of the bible!Mormons are beleiving fairy tales!In due respect paul worns us of those that bring another gospel another meassage that tells of another christ and to reject it.The bible is the final and literal word of god.If blind people continue to lead blind people you all will fall into a ditch.
