LOL, look at how close Joe Smith came to providing precisely the proof the topic requires !!!
Right there, in his magic hat:
the gold plates !!!
Let independent people look in the hat with the magic seer stones and if they all translate out the same passages of the Book of Mormon from the gold plates unbeknownst to each other we would have a fucking winner.
I also note having the seer stones malfunctioning when Old Horny Joe translated out the Book of Abraham is a HUGE impediment to believing anything Joe said/wrote/revealed/prophesied.
The whole idea of a 'magic' stone is, it's ALWAYS going to work. That the magic stone had a blue screen of death and Joe didn't notice is just a fucking disaster for his credibility.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
