Re: What Will These Be Re-Purposed As When It all Falls Apar

When what falls apart? The church? Sorry, but I don't see a whole lot of evidence that is happening. Yes, there have been some widely publicized defections. But is there some kind of huge movement going on? I don't see it. At least not yet. Maybe there is a widespread disaffection brewing among the ...

What was the "job" he resigned from?

Re: Breaking News: BYU-I Professor Resigns Church Membership

Anyone have any background information on Kirk? He was (is?) the host of The Mormon Book Review podcast, which I've listened to a couple of times. He also has a blog focusing on LDS scriptures. He's been a volunteer Institute teacher and has taught online Continuing Education courses in the New Tes...

Re: Does Mormonism hinder womens' ability to earn higher wag

The statistics you quote above would seem to answer your question in the negative. The numbers for Utah appear to be more or less the same as those for the whole country.

Re: DCP's Multi-Year Attack of All Things Bradford Continues

Everyone knows you are Will, Will. Maybe I'll have Dr. Shades change my avatar name from "Ludd" to "Will, Will" . Kind of has a nice ring to it, don'tcha think? And don't flatter yourself. I wouldn't even think of it! You never even rose to the level of mediocre blog poster. I c...

Re: DCP's Multi-Year Attack of All Things Bradford Continues

Dan claims in one of his comment posts that the situation you mentioned is not what he was thinking. I don't think Peterson was denying what you think he was denying. I think he is just measuring his words very carefully in order to, hopefully, back away from a scene he probably didn't intend to ca...

lol!

Yes, my "true" identity. Truth being whatever matches best the thing you are already predisposed to believe. Funny how that works.

Re: DCP's Multi-Year Attack of All Things Bradford Continues

I have now read the DCP post in question (as well as the multitude of comments that follow), and, to me, DCP comes off as a real arse. I can understand the mention of Neal Maxwell and photo of his gravestone, because the 10th anniversary of Maxwell's death was just one week before DCP's post. BUT w...
