Here's a couple of charts I found while looking up information for another post. The first is a list of claims made by the Book of Mormon and whether or not they were confirmed by science, archaeology, etc, in 1842. The second is the same list in 2005.
Some of your other posts (especially Joseph Smith's Gold Plates) would add some more 'green' to the above charts. Gold plates and Gold smelting at least seem to have been confirmed.
ReplyDeleteVery good point! As you mention, there was obviously gold smelting in ancient America and there have been gold plates found with writing, though these were individual plates, not bound into books. Still, nice observation and thanks for commenting!
