But, in an easy to use online format, complete with automatic upload for use in the Temple?! That's just genius.

According to the book Mysteries of Godliness, the Church had a curse book included in the True Order or Prayer for a brief time during the conflict with the U.S. government over polygamy: ""In 1880 Mormon leaders responded to efforts by the U.S. government to suppress plural marriage by convening a special temple prayer circle of general authorities to curse the church's enemies. Among the nearly 400 names listed on the prayer roll were those of Martin Van Buren, Ulysses S. Grant, Rutherford B Hayes, and James Buchannan."

I guess someone like Dr. Ritner holds no candle to your knowledge and understanding of the topic, because you "singlehandedly" showed that an expert reading of the published Facsimiles

I'm not ignoring that, at all. There is still no evidence Joseph Smith utilized or even considered that information when it came time to "translate" the Book of Abraham. There is no evidence he had an understanding of Champollion's work such that it informed or influenced his work on the Book of Abraham. Is there something in the various Kirtland Papers mentioning Champollion or Young about which I am unaware? Oh, and for the record, the day I abdicate my responsibility to meet Daubert standards to an attorney, is the day I stop performing expert witness services. As to your ad ho
