Finally I have found a defense of the Book of Abraham. It is
so air-tight that I'm considering going back to Church. The
Book of Abraham is VINDICATED!
OK, it goes like this-
Abraham writes his manuscript and passes it down to his great-
grandson Joseph. Joseph takes his great-granfather's
manuscript along with one of his own and, using time-travel,
hides them in the coffin of a 1st century B.C. mummy.
Antonio Lebolo finds the mummy and Chandler brings it to
Kirtland Ohio where Joseph Smith recognizes the writings of
Abraham and Joseph.
Joseph translates the Egyptian handwriting of Abraham and
publishes the Book of Abraham.
So far so good.
However, after Joseph Smith's death faeries (probably under the
direction of Satan) change the papyri to appear as pagan
funeral documents rather than as the very handwriting of
Abraham. The faeries also change the glyphs in the margins of
the "Egyptian Alphabet and Grammar" and the Book of Abraham
printers manuscripts. And, finally, they also change the
hieroglyphs on all printed copies of the Book of Abraham to
make them not say what Joseph Smith accurately said they did.
You may laugh at this, but is it that much more far fetched
than what the real Mormon apologists are saying?
