|subject="Gold" plates?
 
|summary=Could Joseph Smith, Jr. have manufactured some metal plates out of tin, copper, or some other metal in order to trick witnesses into thinking he had gold plates? Gold plates of the dimensions described by the witnesses would be too heavy (on the order of 200 lbs) to be realistically lifted and carried as Joseph and others described. This assumption, however, assumes a solid block of gold in the dimensions described, and does not account for the fact that pure gold would have been too fragile to form the thin leaves necessary for engraving.
 
|L1=Question: What are the criticisms related to the "gold plates" of the Book of Mormon?
 
|L2=Question: How much did the gold plates weigh?
 
|L3=Question: What did Joseph Smith say about efforts that were made to steal the gold plates from him?
 
|L4=Lucy Mack Smith: "They stood in the yard near the door, and were devising plans to find "Joe Smith's gold bible," as they expressed themselves"
 
|L5=Question: Is it inconceivable that anybody could run carrying a 50 lb. set of metal plates, jumping over logs and such and be able to outrun three men?
 
|L6=Question: What descriptions exist of the "gold" plates' hiding place?
 
|L7=Question: Of what material were the Book of Mormon "gold" plates constructed?
 
|L8=Question: Could Joseph Smith have manufactured some metal plates out of tin, copper, or some other metal in order to trick witnesses into thinking he had gold plates?

|subject=Gunpowder
 
|summary=Some have even claimed that the Book of Mormon mentions "gunpowder," and "pistols and other firearms," which are clearly anachronisms. The claim is false. There is no mention of "gunpowder" or firearms, or anything like them, in the Book of Mormon.
 
|L1=Question: Are gunpowder, pistols or firearms mentioned in the Book of Mormon?

|subject=Temple in the New World
 
|summary=It is claimed that Israelites would not have built a temple in the New World outside of Jerusalem.  This ignores Israelite temples built in the Old World outside Jerusalem.
 
|L1=Question: Were there not enough people available in Nephi's time to build a temple "after the manner of the temple of Solomon"?
 
|L2=Question: Was Nephi's temple "similar in splendor" to Solomon's temple?
 
|L3=Question: Was the temple in Jerusalem the sole legitimate site of worship?
 
|L4=Question: How could Lehi, a non-Levite, perform sacrifices?
 
|L5=Question: Would Israelites not have constructed a temple outside of Jerusalem?

|subject=Windows
 
|summary=Does the mention of "windows" imply the existence of glass in Book of Mormon times?
 
|L1=Question: Is the Book of Mormon reference to windows that can be "dashed in pieces" an anachronism?
