Doctor Scratch, Thank you for these tidbits in the ongoing drama, As the MI Turns. Not meaning to divert attention in this thread from your three points of new intel, but I am left with a question. There might be a resounding "thud" heard throughout the world of Mormon apologia and critics...

Mr. Gadianton, I agree. Apologists would like to prove Mormonism, but realistically aim merely at keeping a space of plausibility for which thinking Mormons can pause on their way out of Mormonism. Any argument advanced with the purpose, as you say, of discrediting criticisms is to defend that small...

So bradley left the LDS Church. Why? What changed to get him to go back? Where is the money trail? Is he starved for attention and only LDS inc can fill the void? Was he fooling himself then - or now? Mr. Joseph, It is observable that Mr. Bradley has oscillated around the break point of believing a...

Mr. Aristotle Smith (you are),

That is a smashingly funny parody, with or without Mr. Antley.

The producers should be proud. It is better than most Saturday Night Live skits these days.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Why would God provide such a dimly lit image of the words appearing on the face of the stone that JSJr would need darkness for contrast to read it?

Mr. Darth J, My loss of confidence in Mormon hierarchy preceded my atheism. Without hearing weekly preaching and reinforcement that God exists, it soon became evident He does not. It was not until sometime after my disbelief in Mormon hierarchy that I lost my belief in God. I cannot say that my 'bel...

Doctor Scratch, I caution against spending many keystrokes asking why Mr. oxygenadam is chasing you for quoting him but not pursuing Mr. Stakhanovite for likewise quoting Mr. oxygenadam. It appears that Mr. oxygenadam is one of the current pair of apologists (himself and Mr. jskains) currently disp...

Mr. Scottie, You no doubt will avoid doing what YOU believe is wrong. If you do it, the circumstances will justify in your thinking an exception. It will not be that you think the act is wrong, but your weakness overcomes you and you do it. That sort of guilt and self loathing requires an externally...

Now, Scottie can no longer enjoy the guilty pleasures of doing something wrong. You see, you have to subscribe to a belief system in which the act is made wrong for the pleasure of violation to be spiced with guilt. You mean he can't just arbitrarily think something is wrong and then do it anyway f...
