Recently Daniel Peterson plugged a post on
my blog:
An
exceptionally stupid argument against the Restoration
Jonathan Neville (see the Neville-Neville Land blog for
thorough refutations of Neville), has a recent blog post (attempting) to
interact with Dan’s post, showing he has more contempt for Dan Peterson and
other proponents of a Mesoamerican setting for the Book of Mormon than he has
love for the Restored Gospel:
Exceptionally
stupid? Current LDS apologetics
Why do I say this? Note the following from
Neville:
Instead
of ridiculing sincere objections and questions from those outside our faith,
answer them accurately with equivalent sincerity and understanding.
This means that Neville honestly believes
the following is a sincere question and objection to the faith:
Why did
Smith’s three main witnesses, Cowdrey, Davis and Scales write the book, “Who
Really Wrote the Book of Mormon? (Vision House Publishers, 1977)? Why did they
leave the Mormon Church, even though they claimed to have seen Smith’s tablets?
Neville’s hatred of Dan Peterson et al is
greater than any fidelity he has to the Gospel.
