Can I be the unofficial moderator of the forum?

Seriously, I think this is an excellent forum. It is great that we can have such a wholesome discussion with those of other faiths. We can find the things that bring us together in God, rather than those things that divide us.

As it is, I agree with kabalist that the Book of Mormon is a very Messianic-Jewish book.

Yep, I look forward to reading his commentary on so many aspects of the Book of Mormon.

Our critics often point to the lack of concrete physical evidence of the authenticity of the Book of Mormon, but thekabalist has shown that the real evidence of the authentic Hebrew authorship of the book is in the content.

I've added a line to the rules of this forum to perhaps clarify the purpose of this forum. This forum is not to be used for debates. It is a Jewish perspective of the Book of Mormon. Plain and simple.

Wow. This forum is going to be my new home for a while. I've been gone far too long. Thekabalist, thank you for sharing all this with us. I am humbled.
