the book of mormon is a mormon scripture claiming to be documents of jesus christ visiting the americas. the only branch of christianity to use the book of mormon as scripture is mormonism or “the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints.”
despite a fair amount of archaeological evidence that may support events occurring in the bible, there is no archaeological evidence of any event in the book of mormon. this is substantial because of the descriptions of large cities and huge battles in the book of mormon– any events of such magnitude would leave a very clear impression upon the land. of which evidence there is none backed by real scholars, in contrast to some archaeological sites matching descriptions in the bible, of which some events are accepted by both christian and non-christian scholars.
as well as lack of archaeological evidence, theres a stark lack of any DNA evidence to support the basic premise of the book of mormon. the book of mormon claims that indigenous people of the americas came from the middle east by way of boat. following this, as technology improved, scientists found much closer matches to asia, concluding that indigenous americans came to the americas by traveling over the frozen waters of the bering strait. this is the most widely accepted explanation within the field of science.
while still a piece of scripture to many, there has been no evidence accepted by the scientific community evidence to support these happenings.

Person 1: “Dude, did you know mormons believe native americans came from the middle east?”
Person 2:”What? They can’t possibly believe that, are you sure they really do?
Person 3:”Yeah, man, it says it in the book of mormon and everything!”

Get the book of mormon mug.A main focus of the church of Jesus’ Christ of Latter Day Saints is on families. One purpose of their temples is to be eternally sealed as a family so you can be together forever. Resurrection part 2(heaven) is made up of three little groups depending how you lived your life; celestial, terrestrial, and telestrial.
Celestial is the highest heaven: it’s closer to god. you only get go there if you are sealed in the temple, have children, follow the word of wisdom, and if you repent for your sins. If you don’t have kids or get married, have fun in the terrestrial kingdom, especially if you’re gay. “sexual relations are proper only between a man and a woman who are legally and lawfully wedded” meaning if you’re gay, the church expects you to suck it up and shove it. Next up is the telestrial kingdom, the place farthest from god. if you lived a good life and followed the Ten Commandments, but not the word of wisdom you go there. Hell is the absence of god’s presence. You go there if you get ‘led astray by satan’, aka leave the church.
Overall the Mormon church is based on lies, and only adjusts its core beliefs so it doesn’t get canceled. They have a good community that focuses on making sure even if you want to leave all your friends are from the church and they would just pity you for leaving. The families all put up a front to look good for each other so they can do something other than cry or make a sports metaphor about god in front of the whole church.

Me: This is a rant and it barely scratches the surface. Go to the church website, lds.org, for their values, they have a dictionary thing that states their beliefs on certain topics. For stuff against the church, the ces letter by Jeremy runnels is a good place to start. Another good spot is YouTube interviews with Ex-Mormons.
