Re: Does DCP want a discussion?
Gemli is clearly very intelligent and spends a lot of time online in message boards. I think he's just having fun. Like a cat owner with a laser pointer, and the cat never tires of chasing the laser around on the floor like it was the first time.

Re: Mopologetics and the Concept of “Sheeple”
Doctor, sheeple are the primary audience for Mopologetics. They are its raison d'être. Think about it. They want people who will take the arguments at face value; no pushback. If everyone asked questions, dug into the reference material, read the footnotes, and examined the facts, science and logic ...

Re: Kearon not allowed to discuss decision to accept Apostle job with his wife.
However, there are times when highly leveraged decisions are contrived by a narcissist, such as having a gun pointed at your head and ordered to do something, "or else". In the Tin Man's head, he thinks he's testing the faith of the initiate. He's really just satisfying his own ego. Very well said....

Re: DCP goes all-in on pseudo scientific quackery
Honestly, Dean Robbers, if you think about it for a while, it's more sad than anything. Because they take their authority so seriously, Mormonism's leaders condemned psychiatric and psychological mental healthcare for decades, while at the same time embracing the assistance of electroshock therapy t...

Re: Proving the church true in the US court of law
Reminds me of the "Day of Defense" booklet, sold to new missionaries in the MTC bookstore. I had a copy, studied it rigorously in my first area along with my companion and the zone leaders who shared an apartment with us. I fully believed that, not only did this booklet "prove" the Church was more t...

Re: Serving bishop resigns from the stand at sacrament meeting
Good for him. More leaders need to defy Mormon authorities who ask them to do immoral things.

Re: Forty Hours Per Week?
I would believe 40 hours as follows: 10-15 hours combined, a few minutes at a time, reading messages on this site and talking about them over email with his fellow “defenders” and plotting responses 5 hours searching old blog posts and notes for material to copy into “new” blog posts 1-2 hours readi...

Re: Against Dale and Dale’s Bayesian analysis of the Book of Mormon – rough draft, looking for feedback
This response to Billy Spears by Bruce Dale is just cringe-inducing: ...The Bayesian method my son Brian and I applied in our Interpreter paper may indeed be the best choice among set of bad options. It may be the cleanest dirty shirt in the laundry. But before it was published, that paper went thr...
