The Altar donated to the Temple of the Queen of Sheba by Bi‘athtar, son of Sawad, son of Naw‘an, the Nihmite, reads as follows (if you place a seer stone on the Altar and cover your face with your hat), "I Bi'athtar certify that this is the place where Lehi and the Nephites stopped on their journey to the Americas. May they bless us with a reference in their Book of Mormon. PS. Any future translator should feel free to spell this location as Nahom".
Bet all you chronic naysayers feel pretty sheepish now. Just wait for this to appear in Sic et Non and you will know you have been thoroughly trounced by the shining apologetics.
Is there a....well...you know....thingy majig....Link?
(Or are we in full spoof mode?)
“When we are confronted with evidence that challenges our deeply held beliefs we are more likely to reframe the evidence than we are to alter our beliefs. We simply invent new reasons, new justifications, new explanations. Sometimes we ignore the evidence altogether.” (Mathew Syed 'Black Box Thinking')

You forgot to translate it using Hebrew chiasmus... this is true only so far as it is translated correctly...

"Dr. Peterson and his Callithumpian cabal of BYU idiots have been marginalized by their own inevitable irrelevancy defending a fraud."
Ya'know - they should be using Egyptian since later it was 'reformed Egyptian'.
I think Reformed Egyptian was the preferred written language for the fugitives wanted in connection with the beheading and armed robbery in Jerusalem. Those Nihmites, who noted the passage of those fugitives with this stone altar, had their own system of writing.
