The only thing that makes sense of hoarding all that money is…nope, I got nothing.

Fear.

I didn't know about RTM's talk, "Never take counsel from those who do not believe," lol, that's hilarious. Aren't the fifteen advised by an army of lawyers and consultants, many or most of which aren't Mormon? From what I hear, no. Attorneys, consultants, outside audit and internal audit personnel ...

The tidbit about The More Good Foundation was especially interesting: I have always viewed it as a fundamentally Mopologetic organization—basically, a secretive funding arm that would help finance and enable things like FAIR, or Allen Wyatt’s infamous cyber-squatting.

Marcus, I personally know 5 women who commented on that post, where it was their first time vocalizing the deepest feelings of anger and frustration in a public forum. First time ever. I’ve spoken with 2 of them. They are shaking with a mix of overflowing rage and excitement about discovering a coll...

For some reason, this post reminds me of Father's Day. Because dad jokes are how eye roll.

You rapscallion.

I have some pretty strong feelings about Father's Day. I look forward to celebrating it this weekend.

LOL!!
