Without the open-mindedness (faith) to entertain a new proposal seriously enough to fairly consider another point of view, there is simply "no evidence" to be considered, no matter how much a passionate advocate rambles on about so-called "evidence."

A critic was once asked what could possibly count as actual evidence in his view, and he responded that it would be nice, for starters, to see evidence of a Mayan glyph that meant "and it came to pass." He was shown a Mayan glyph which reads exactly that. Instead of saying, "Wow, well, that was at least a little interesting," it was just another dismissal. 

Extensive use of “came to pass” and “come to pass” occurs 1476 times in the Book of Mormon, and is rooted in Old Testament Hebrew where it occurs 526 times. It is considered to be unique to Hebrew historic writing. In other words, we can say, as with chiasmic structure, that wherever it is found as a literary convention, there is the imprint of Hebrew influence.
