What could they find in a tomb (or somewhere in Egypt) to shed new light that makes Joseph an honest hero after all?

I'd think finding Kolob would help.

Hugh Nibley could rise from the dead and spread more of his BS among the faithful.

The Q15 could discover their balls and admit that Joe made it all up.

Nothing can be done, that ship has sailed.

I’m sure that Mormon (yes, I said “Mormon”) leadership wishes they could erase everyone’s memory of the BoA, but they’re stuck with it.

I figured that nothing can be done, but I wanted to hear imaginative ideas.

I don't have a BoA anymore, and don't want to get one. But I remember its contents getting mixed into Mormon doctrine. By admitting it can't be true, the theology of the whole church will fall.

Maybe if they find a funerary scroll in a tomb that has an appendix written in reformed Egyptian.

I'll believe the BoA when they find a drawing of Jesus wearing an AC/DC cap and shooting beer cans with an AR-15.

Which, I admit, would be AWESOME. Rock on Redneck Jesus!

The whole mormon shooting match could be propelled to stardom and beyond if one or more of the Three Nephites would come forward to give testimony and to allow himself/themselves to be studied.

Imagine it starting at a 4th grade Career Day...in Lindon, UT.

I love those 3 Nephites. One of them visited me, riding his tapir. When I refused to go back to church, he and the tapir disappeared before my very eyes.

In February of 1973 one of the three disappeared from the backseat of the car of someone in my brothers ward after telling the driver to get their food storage by April 6th of that year or it would be too late.

Do you agree I'm correct?

If they showed up on The View ...

A giant radiation collector on the sun aimed constantly at a single point in the galaxy, and then the optical devices necessary to transmit that radiation- possibly in a different form- toward the entire solar system in a spherical pattern.

You could wake up and discover that Mormonism was all a bad dream.

In a sense, I DID wake up and find Mormonism to be a bad dream. What a wastage of time and money!

certain hieroglyphs that were used as a special code to indicate paragraphs of information and each of those hieroglyphs is linked to texts that exactly match the "translations" that Joseph Smith assigned them. And a prefatory text expressly indicates that these codes were assigned to those hieroglyphs to protect sacred secrets from many generations of infidels until a day would come when a man named Joseph, like unto Joseph of Egypt, would interpret correctly the hieroglyphs and reveal the sacred secrets at the time and generation appointed for the revelation thereof.

The text would further explain that the secrets were to be integrated into funerary practices and passed down in that manner, so that the infidels would ignore them as being ordinary funerary texts and nothing more.

Wally, you REALLY need to write a mystery novel based on this!

The mummy that was with the texts could come back to life and declare that Horny Joe was right about what the texts said. Bonus points if the mummy said he WAS Abraham and that boner in the picture was needed to become the father of millions.

No new discovery could redeem it. Perhaps a fabricated hoax artifact could give some Mormons false hope.

This may be the first time that I am completely, enthusiastically in agreement with smirkorama. A modern-day miracle.

Over a hundred years ago, Egpytologists from all over the world put name and reputation on the line and publicly denounced the book of Abraham as false. Their work published in major newspapers.

Didn't matter one iota to the church.

If something wholly proven as false is not a deterrent why even bother to try and prove it is true?
