Church Letter To Institution Why Does The Smithsonian Institution Say There Is No Connection Between Archeology And The Book Of Mormon?

Why does the Smithsonian Institution say there is no connection between archeology and the Book of Mormon? - church letter to institution

The Smithsonian Institution, has in a letter to the states of the Mormon Church, "The Smithsonian Book of Mormon never used in any way as a scientific guide. Archaeologists see no connection between the Institute of Archeology of the New World and the subject of books.
http://www.irr.org/mit/smithsonian.html

And the National Geographic Society, said:
"What the cities mentioned in the Book of Mormon, and representatives of the National Geographic Society archaeologist, or any other institution of equal prestige connection has not used the Book of Mormon in locating historic ruins in Central America or elsewhere.

Because they are human and do not know everything.

The Smithsonian Institution is not God. Have been wrong before. They are wrong again. I respect your position, but I will base my faith in God - who say do not show too - in what they.

As with natural gas ... Why not? Do not approach the ruined temple, or somewhere in the intention to prove or disprove a religion? No of course not. Why start now?

Any link or reference to a Mormon always existed, the Book of Mormon is evidence of Mormon is another story that says his mind and has a few cherries.

There are hundreds of facts and artifacts about the history of pre-Columbian America. They paint a very different picture of the history of the Mormons, if you look at all objective. There are scientists (with the exception of some Mormons) believe it could be true.

Not discussed in scientific journals. He gives credit in the amount of Bigfoot and UFOs.

Archeology, anthropology, history, genetics, biology, linguistics - any discipline is the bottom line itself. The natives came from Asia via Siberia. Not only an indicator of the Hebrews here to Columbus.

I think it is possible that Joseph Smith never found "gold plates" and never said an angel named Spumoni (or other) and all that ... but no. The Smithsonian and National Geographic Society has it wrong.: D

Yes! I use a lot when I write!

In the current answer to that question is obvious.

- You see no connection between the archeology of the New World and the theme of the Book of Mormon. --

Did I miss anything?

Probably because in the writings of the world, is the Book of Mormon as the ultimate idoicy anger and stupidity, and has about as much truth as the average YouTube video on Ray Comfort.

Because the book of Mormon is historically inaccurate.
argues that Jews have lived in America and the first building of cities that were destroyed during the war.

The Book of Mormon has never been proven to be healthy archaeologically.

The Bible actually has some specific information about the historic sites. The Book of Mormon is not easy.

The Bible (gives Hope) said...

Since the book was written by someone imagination.

Because they can not find can not find what you do not seek, and in some cases, resolved to.

Since there is no connection between archeology and the Book of Mormon.
