==[[File:PanAmer.png]] Limited Geography Model==
A common criticism of Mormonism is the lack of archaeological, ethnic, linguistic, and geographic proof of the millions of Lamanites, Nephites, Jaredites, and Mulekites that settled in The Americas from Israel. Mormon scholars have proposed The 'Limited Geography Model' which claims The Israeli-Native American Tribes settled in Messo-America, at a much smaller scale than what the original Book of Mormon claims. Mormon scholars have cited [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic%20drift Genetic drift] as a counterargument to the claim of no ethnic or genetic proof for The Book of Mormon's claims. As for archaeology, Mormons have argued dismissing The Book of Mormon's authenticity for The lack of Historical accuracy is short-sighted, as archaeology as a field is constantly expanding and undercovering new treasures.

==Lost 116 pages==
During The writing of The Book of Mormon, Lucy Harris, The Wife of Martin Harris hid 116 translated pages from The Plates of Lehi to test whether or not Joseph Smith was reading off The Golden Tablets or making it up. Rather than translating off the same plates, The Lord commanded Joseph Smith to translate off the plates of Nephi to teach Smith a lesson. Mormon skeptics heavily criticize this event as they believe it proves Joseph Smith it a false prophet, and The Story of Mormonism is false.
