University of Munich Egyptologist calls Smith's work a probable forgery and says the text is not older than the Greek period

I Think I Have Proof That Mormonism Is Not True 00:21:49 – 00:22:54

Additional expert scholarly critique from Munich

A professor from the University of Munich is quoted, who says he 'probably believed seriously' that Smith was trying to translate the text, but that 'he utterly failed.' This professor calls the text 'probably not older than the Greek' period — consistent with the 2nd century BC dating — and says Smith's interpretation is so wrong as to constitute a forgery of sorts.
