The Book of Mormon is fictional.
The peoples spoken about within it never existed.
There is no objective independent evidence outside of the church to prove otherwise.
And no Mormon apologist can demonstrate otherwise.
Even though the bible is a record of peoples that existed some 1,500 years before those supposed peoples recorded in the Book of Mormon, it can be proven that there were ancient Egyptians, Babylonians, Israelites, Philistines etc.
No historical or archaeological proof exists whatsoever that there were any Lamenites, Jaredites, Nephites, etc.
Whatever spiritual experiences Mormons may have, such experiences cannot prove the book Mormonism is based upon.
The Book of Mormon essentially represents a historical claim not a spiritual one. And historical claims can either be proven or disproven by science, i.e. archaeology, anthropology and specifically by historical artifacts.
The Book of Mormon makes false claims about the manufacture of forged metal weapons, use of horses, the wheel and various farm crops , which did not exist in the Americas before Columbus.
The DNA evidence has proven that there is no link gentically between ancient Hebrews and the peoples of the Americas before Columbus.
Mormon apologists can't change these facts.
