Definitely some interesting things unfolding over at SeN. The poster called “axelbeingcivil” has dredged up an absolutely reprehensible position taken by one of DCP’s idols during the height of the AIDS epidemic. I.e., that every HIV-positive person should have to be tattooed in order to announce th...

Why can't it be both? In fact, this seems to be a bit of a confessional of DCP. He is bright and capable AND delusional and obsessed. In fact that's kind of a good description of most Mopologetics. None of them seems dull and incapable. All of them are surely obsessed with defending the truth claim...

Over at SeN, Dr. Peterson recently posted a rather long-winded biography of Willard Richards. In conversations about the Witnesses and/or about other early Church leaders, Dr. Peterson seldom ever gets into specifics: it's as if he's reluctant to actually defend his position concerning the credibili...

The Mopologists are predictably reacting with vindictive glee. It’s not enough for them to simply have the Kirtland temple back; they have to use the occasion to berate the CoC, accuse them of being “apostates,” and to treat the different CoC religious beliefs with mockery and contempt.

I do wonder why the money wasn't used to build the FARMS ziggurat . Alternatively, FARMS could have purchased the Kirtland temple, moved it by truck to Provo, and contracted with E. C. Construction Company to reconstruct the temple into a ziggurat. (I suspect that D. Peterson would have been hired ...

Some remarkably (or typically?) dishonest/disingenous material from Dr. Peterson, in response to Gemli: gemli: " But golden plates are not observable and testable" Actually, they were observed by between fifteen and twenty people, who, collectively speaking, left behind scores of accounts of what th...

The answer to the opening question is “No.” DCP has never been interested in “conversation” online; he has, almost 100% of the time, been interested in Mopologetics. Things changed somewhat once he moved over into blogging, but his interactions with other people online has been defined by condescens...

A very (unintentionally) funny entry appeared on SeN today. In it, the Proprietor describes a visit to a New Zealand ranch where they were treated to a show of sheep being sheared. Dr. Peterson notes that he was impressed by the “speed” at which the wool was sheared away, but as you might guess, he ...

It is absolutely hilarious and all too fitting that DCP is threatening to ban someone for quoting the Lord’s Anointed. Right, Imagine if they were quoting the Encyclopedia of Mormonism or something from FROB. No problems then. It’s a reminder of how much of a mask DCP’s daily posts are. He seems to...
