90% of the presentation was awesome.
It's no wonder that the rising generation increasingly sees the Book of Mormon as fiction.
But the entire presentation (and everything else they do) is tainted by M2C, their Mesoamerican/two-Cumorahs theory.
Even in their Moroni Day celebration, they presented the Book of Mormon as a fictional account by using the BYU fantasy map.
The BYU fantasy map was designed to promote M2C by imprinting the M2C interpretation of the text onto the minds of everyone who sees it--especially BYU students. Although it is a computer-generated image, it fits the Mesoamerican model promoted by John Sorenson, Jack Welch, and their followers.
The BYU fantasy map teaches students (and everyone reached by the millions of dollars Scripture Central spends) that the "best" interpretation of the Book of Mormon fits a fantasy map akin to Tolkien's Lord of the Rings maps.

It's no wonder that the rising generation increasingly sees the Book of Mormon as fiction.
The tragedy is the way we arrived at this point.
People wonder why M2C is embedded in everything they do
Background
Scripture Central is the latest facade for BMAF.org (Book of Mormon Archaeological Forum, Inc.) which is the corporate entity that owns Book of Mormon Central and all its affiliates.
BMAF's logo depicts a Mayan pyramid to represent the Book of Mormon!
The BYU fantasy map makes this explicit by showing Cumorah in a land far, far away from New York:

You can watch the segment of "Moroni Day" that features the fantasy map starting here:
They show the area where their Cumorah is located, but they add the names later so their unsuspecting viewers never see how they defy the teachings of the prophets about Cumorah.
