Proving there's no fraud blatant enough in religion: that time Joseph Smith passed off texts from a different religion as being Mormon scripture

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Smith_Papyri

Scenes he "translated" as being of events in Abraham's life were actually funerary texts involving [name of deceased] in the role of the God Osiris.

A Mormon egyptologist did this translation of "facsimile #3" from the book of Abraham and yet is still a mormon

Here what's actually supposed to be the deceased "Osiris Hor Justified forever" is referred to by Smith as "Shulem, one of the king’s principal waiters, as represented by the characters above his hand."
