  33. Do Others Fair as Well? Does the Koran? Samaritans built the Golden Calf Joseph was purchased with drachmas Alexander the great (Muslim) died an old man

  34. Do Others Fair as Well? Does the Book of Mormon? Consider the search for “Lehi” At BYU they also appeared to be intrigued by the "blood of Lehi." Mormon researchers there gathered DNA samples from 100,000 volunteers around the world, which included South America and Israel. They hoped somehow to prove the claims made more than a century ago by Joseph Smith, that there is a connection between ancient Israel and modern Native Americans. ……….Ironically, the database compiled by BYU can only conclude that there is no evidence of a Native American/Israel connection.

  35. Do Others Fair as Well? Does the Book of Mormon? Consider the search for “Lehi” The Search for Cumorah According to the Book of Mormon, at least 230,000 men died in battle at the Hill Cumorah. Also, this battle was about 1/10 the size of the battle which took place at the same location approximately 1,000 years earlier when, according to Ether 15:2 "nearly two millions" of the Jaredites had their last great battle. However, there is literally not a trace of archaeological evidence to support the claim that so many men died in battle at the tiny hill

  36. We Believe…. to what end? Acts 17:24-28
