Unless we know the makeup of the Lehites we don't know how to analyze the data. But to be fair, if we can, from analyzing dead bodies from around 600 BC, get an idea of the distribution of genes, we can have a fairly good idea of the probability of Lehi's genes. But of course it is just that - a probability. Just as the arguments about the genes getting lost in the indigeneous peoples of mesoAmerica is a probability.<br /><br />What I'd like to see is an analysis of these sorts of probabilities. Something neither side has done, so far as I'm aware.Clark Goblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03876620613578404474noreply@blogger.com
