Re: DCP Gets Scolded for Traveling During the Pandemic

I should add that I hope that Dr. Peterson, his wife, and everyone they were in contact with goes and gets tested for COVID. I think that everyone understands at this point that there are reasons why people will go against the official recommendations: e.g., the George Floyd protests. But the ethica...

DCP Gets Scolded for Traveling During the Pandemic

It occurs to me that Dr. Peterson is in a bit of a pickle. On the one hand, he wants to reinforce the advice of public health professionals vis-a-vis the COVID pandemic. On the other hand, though, he also wants to give people "other things" to read/think about, hence this jaunty little tale : Yester...

Re: Some Mormons and Their Celebrity Look-Alikes.

I've always thought that Dr. Peterson kind of resembles Lou Gentine, of Sargento Cheese notoriety. Lou has more hair, but they both share that connection to cheese.

Re: Has the Baton Been Passed from Gee to Smoot?

The Book of Abraham is like the Kobayashi Maru of Mopologetics: it’s the ultimate “no-win situation,” and that’s why old-guard people like DCP, Welch, Hamblin, and Midgley would never touch it with a ten-foot pole. They have *always* farmed this stuff out to Gee, and they haven’t always been very s...

Re: Has the Baton Been Passed from Gee to Smoot?

If your premise is correct, then that's a bad sign for Dr. Gee, 'cause Mopologetics is typically a lifetime tenure. If one quits being a Mopologist before one dies, then apostasy seems to quickly follow. Dr. Shades: My apologies—I didn’t mean to imply that Gee was retiring as a Mopologist. Rather, ...

Has the Baton Been Passed from Gee to Smoot?

Happy Halloween, everyone! Under normal circumstances, we'd be up for all sorts of tricks and treats. But these aren't normal times, and so we have to settle (I guess) for Mopologetic tricks instead, such as this incredibly bizarre blog post from Steve Smoot . The abstract clues you in to what's goi...

Re: Congratulations Sunstoned!

Many congratulations, Sunstoned! All your hard word has really paid off. And yes, Dean Robbers is correct: if you attempt to post on "SeN," you will likely be banned. The only PhDs permitted on "SeN" are the Mopologists.
