True, there are some disagreements among LDS scholars in the right column, but they all agree on one thing: The Hill Cumorah cannot be in New York!
The best way for you to steer clear of the people in the left column is to stick with Book of Mormon Central. They run a wonderful website that frequently reinforces the non-New York Cumorah. Here’s the link: https://bookofmormoncentral.org/
Be sure to read the Interpreter, Meridian Magazine, BMAF.org, FairMormon, the Maxwell Institute, BYU Studies, and other web pages affiliated with Book of Mormon Central. Don’t read anything that contradicts or challenges the consensus of LDS scholars and educators who have been properly trained in the Mesoamerican ministry.

One thought on “The Scholars are right”
I just can’t understand why the Meso Scholars have it so wrong. How can Letter VII be denied? It is impossible. The Book of Mormon main events happened in the United States and Cumorah is in New York.
