Re: LDSBOT gives its testimony
LDSBot brings all the frustration and disappointment of talking to a Mormon family member about difficult church issues to your fingertips, without ever having to leave the house. I can’t wait for it to have a talking human avatar you can interact with through the Apple VR headset. It will be able t...

Re: Milking a Lolcow
I’m a professional chef. I’ve been cooking since 2006 and read a lot of Alton Brown.

Re: Is DCP being slandered here?
Could I inquire as to the nature of the board's fixation with Dr. Peterson? Nine of the twenty-five threads on the first page are either about Peterson or are having a discussion about him. I just performed a fast scan of the threads. When it comes to Dr. Peterson, I'm sorry, but that's simply stra...

Re: Theology: Not Convinced
A quick google search associates Kiwi57 with Russell McGregor, an Adjunct Professor of History in the College of Arts, Society and Education at James Cook University in Australia. He doesn’t seem to post as often at SeN anymore though. Hah! That probably just shows how out of date I am. Or how faul...

Re: Theology: Not Convinced
I wonder if the same Mormon blog ever publishes the various other names of kiwi57. I gather that kiwi is quite sensitive about having his in real life identity associated with his kiwi id, and with his handle on another Mormon-themed discussion board. A quick google search associates Kiwi57 with Ru...

Re: Theology: Not Convinced
The timing makes me think it’s some sort of “payback” for this board uncovering Mike Parker as Peter Pan.

Re: Does the Interpreter Foundation Have Colonialist Ambitions?
You will perhaps recall the two blog entries — “Hearts of Darkness” and “Seeking ‘wealth’ in the DR Congo” — from a while back in which I related how a small troop of the Church’s more zany and unhinged critics were accusing the Interpreter Foundation of “colonialist” ambitions in the DR Congo. The...

In a comment posted elsewhere online, Professor [personal information deleted] , who [personal information deleted] , wrote the following, with which I wholeheartedly agree: In antiquity, people argued and shed blood over theology.

The value of leaving Mormonism and not leaving it alone
It’s often said by church apologists that members can leave the church, but they can’t leave it alone. Of course, no one sees all the members who leave and do leave it alone. Because they don’t say anything on their way out and they never look back. They never say another word about Mormonism. But t...
