    But, just know that the early Christians had no book, just the Holy Spirit. Archaeological evidences do not make spiritual truths anymore true.

    Not going to argue this endlessly, either.
    They had no book? What about the Old Testament? As far as the New goes, letters were circulated to the various congregations, letters written to the Apostles. Archaeological proof of the Biblical narrative is an important support of the truths told - the existence of Israel, the Jews, the coming of the Messiah, the Roman method of crucifixion, etc. Fairy tales never have archaeological proof, and that's the category in which the Book of Mormon falls. You can disparage extant evidence, but that demonstrates nothing but the fact that Mormons are unable to deal with reality: the Book of Mormon is a myth.
    Oath formerly taken by Mormons promising not to reveal secret Mormon temple rituals: "Should we do so, we agree to have our breasts cut open and our hearts and vitals torn from our bodies and given to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field."
