The Book of Mormon is fiction

This film proves it, by comparing the truths of the Holy Bible to the fiction and fantasy of the Book of Mormon. Joseph Smith was a charlatan.

The Bible vs. The Book of Mormon:

"The Book of Mormon claims to be "a volume of holy scripture comparable to the Bible." Both the Bible and the Book of Mormon declare themselves to be ancient, historical, and reliable rules of faith-the very word of God.

These claims have historically been taken on faith. But is there any evidence to support them one way or the other? Is it even possible to "test" a rule of faith? More to the point, is there any basis for placing one's faith in the Bible or the Book of Mormon?

It's an important question. It's an eternal question. This presentation puts the Bible and the Book of Mormon to the same tests. History, archaeology, textual criticism, and other disciplines combine to shed light on what is true...and what is false.

Truth never fears investigation. Faith need not--and should not--be blind. Discover for yourself which of these books is worthy of being called "scripture" and which is worthy of your trust."

Once you've watched it, don't forget to rate it and discuss it on IMDb!

Of course!
Every religion that exists is fiction, the product of charlatans.
Otherwise how can each one of them make us believe that that one is the one and only true religion on earth? That means that all the others are a pack of lies, then. Then, which one IS actually true?
The answer is NONE. If you listen to them is like running around in circles, you'll never get anywhere.
The best thing to do is to ignore them. I was raised as a Roman Catholic, I used to go to church, took my first communion being pure and innocent when I was nine, confessed my innocent sins to priests many times.. Then puberty came and hit hard, and with it, hellfire and brimstone. I felt like *beep* for the "disgusting" things I was doing with my body and for being sexually attracted to other boys... the most unspeakable sins you can imagine. Until one day I saw the light: it's all a load of rubbish!
Live your life and enjoy the pleasures you can get from it as long as you don't do any harm to other people. But don't let anyone poison your mind with self-righteous crap that most of them themselves don't believe either, the bastards.
