Re: RFM and Washington State Bar Complaints

Rosebud's rant is now available! :lol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apgS9qPH0vk Oh boy. Rosebud's complaint letter was one of the most inappropriate things I've seen in a long time. By that I mean, regardless of her story, why on earth would she think that, in a complaint to the Washington. Bar ...

I knew DCP's response to Hitchens had originally motivated his participation, but a few more details have come to light... DanielPeterson Mod gemli 20 hours ago gemli: "If Christopher Hitchens couldn't shake your faith" Mr. Hitchens's effort was, umm, distinctly unimpressive. But then, at least he m...

Re: I Can't Eye-Roll Hard Enough Over DCP's Latest

So....Mormons historically didn't 'celebrate' Holy Week because.... it wasn't "successfully commercialized" enough? The Catholics would be surprised (if not disgusted) to hear that rationale from a member of a church that insists on being called by its full name, which includes the name of Jesus Ch...

Gemli responds to the accusation that he is boring and repetitive... gemli DanielPeterson I don't think you're bored as much as defensive. I remember we had a kitten when I was in knee pants, and if we shined a flashlight on the wall he'd swat at the light, which we'd just move out of the way. The p...

...This is the first time I am seeing this. I'm not sure that there is anything that can be done to help and I wonder if people telling her to stop is actually fuelling this spiral further.

Re: Gemli explains...

...People think I am sincere so my spiritual answer is to be trusted. It's interesting you would suggest that as an explanation, as I recall hearing something very similar to that in the 70s-80s quite a bit. It sounds like I left about half a decade or so after you, so it's very plausible the empha...
