why would anyone who acknowledges that Joseph Smith did not literally learn an ancient language and translate words he saw written down (plates) into the Book of Mormon (i.e. one argues he did it through inspiration) get bent out of shape over Joseph Smith using papyri as a source for further revelation?

it seems like such an assinine thing to argue. You either have faith or you don't. I'm don't understand why the PoGP changes anything, as compared to the BoM. Is there this contingent of people that have full faith in the BoM but doubt the PoGP?
