Study history- Joseph Smith did not even meet Sidney Rigdon until quite some time AFTER the BOM was published.
Nice try though.

The answer to your "question" is no. Sydney Rigdon did not have in his possession a book identical to the Book of Mormon.

I have read both books that Joseph Smith was supposed to have copied to get the Book of Mormon and there is not enough simularities to convince me. I need more.

No. Put your "research" on any of Spalding's claim into chronological order and you will find that this information does not even predate the BoM - let alone the fact that it was a story written about Romans......

Are you talking about that book that theorized that the Indians were descendents of the lost tribes?

"Identical" is a very misleading term. Please give source if making such a claim, in fairness and accuracy. Otherwise, it is called deception just like you are inferring that Joseph did.
