There's a story about someone who wrote to the Smithsonian asking about
the veracity of the BoM. And the reply was in the negative.

Is that a true story or an urban legend? Anyone know?

David, do you know what an internet search engine is? Do you know how to use
one? I plugged:

into Google, and the first two sites that came up were

Response to the Smithsonian Institute Statement on the Book of Mormon

Smithsonian Institution statement on the Book of Mormon

Sometimes it seems as if you're a high school student asking us to do your
homework for you. If you want to discuss these things, try looking up the
easy ones yourself, and then you can ask questions about what you learn.
