Re: Historical Predynastic Egypt vs. Book of Abraham False Narrative

Re: Mormon Unorthodoxy at SeN
Yeah, that is a smart choice—to bolster Brigham Young’s weak claim to be Smith’s successor. On the practical ground of successful outcomes the otherwise weak claim works well enough for those who need or want to buy it. DCP is doing exactly what you would expect him to do in this situation. I remem...

Re: Holmes vs. Smith on RFM
This episode might send Moriarty and RFM over Reichenbach Falls, but RFM will return clad in a Marvel T-shirt and hopefully some pants.

Re: Backyard Professor Expounds on How the Church Guilts its Members
I remember on the LDS Forum of Beliefnet reading the women talking about confessing to the bishop.
