Re: Interpreter tries to fix one of their sharpshooter fallacies

I was rather hoping we could talk about a few specific articles instead of “uh…well…just all of them, duh!” Make it the three from the current issue about Book of Mormon names, Hamites in the Book of Abraham, and NHM, then? I'm not trying to cherry pick here. I haven't opened two of them and only s...

Re: Interpreter tries to fix one of their sharpshooter fallacies

Surely we could find a piece of Carmack work that doesn’t qualify, right ? Did you read the entirety of The Blocking in Georgian Verb Morphology by Stanford Carmack? - Doc edit: Just to give you a head start, Flemming, please demonstrate how Carmack didn’t focus on a subset of Georgian verbs that e...

No, pg said Carmack's "entire body of work." That's at least 15. Plus 1=16. That qualifies as "many," and significantly more than 5.

Re: He was a sign of his times.

Absolutely. Smith's crimes should not have been capital crimes. He was murdered. But that's presentism. I'm judging Smith's lynchers by twenty-first century moral standards. In the society of Smith's place and time, his contemporaries were so outraged by what they believed he had done, with his sex...

Re: Interpreter tries to fix one of their sharpshooter fallacies

I said “no one help him!” I wanted to see if percussion man could follow up with anything substantial. He couldn’t. True, you said that initially. But you then opened it up. I took you up on the offer. That article is nothing but drawing bullseye's around apologetic beliefs about the Book of Mormon...

Re: Interpreter tries to fix one of their sharpshooter fallacies

I was hoping drumdude would be able to “pick ‘em.” You were responding to my post. You were addressing me. It’s a discussion board, I was trying to get a discussion going. I guess drumdude can’t do that without help. So yes, I was addressing you counting on the fact that you’re too much of a celebr...

The people in Joseph Smith's day judged him by the standards of Joseph Smith's day AND KILLED HIM.
Counterpoint: not all who are killed via vigilante acts are killed justly.
