Interesting that you desire a LDS perspective - but in truth it is the perspective of the L-rd and his wisdom that is the much more worth while quest and concern. If something is in error there is no benefit in knowing it without knowing that which is not in error.

I once did some consulting with the Federal Reserve Bank and in a discussion I learned that there is only one fool proof (and legal) method of identifing that which is real tendor from counterfit. It is the only way to avoid counterfits - it might surprise you concerning your current method of questions about the Book of Mormon because I believe the method will work as well with religion - but that is my opinion.
