John Weldon: It would not matter even if the Book of Mormon were to be Proven to be An Ancient History

In his joke of a book against Mormon apologetics, John Weldon wrote the following:

 

Everything we know tells us the Book of Mormon is a myth and that Mormonism is a false religion. (But even if Book of Mormon civilizations (or what could claim to be them) were eventually discovered it still wouldn't prove Mormon theology and Scripture true, because these are antithetical to biblical revelation and false by definition.) (John Weldon, Mormon Apologetics: A Losing Battle [Chattanooga, Tenn.: ATRI Publishing, 2012 Logos ed.])

 

In other words, even if Joseph told the truth and the Book of Mormon were to be verified, he would continue to stick his head in the sand no matter what because “MuH pRoTeStAnTiSm!!!!”
