Re: Joseph Smith and Turkmenbashy

I’d fully support a ban on lip syncing, air guitars, and even karaoke. With regard to your post, I suspect it may have been just as likely that has Joseph Smith lived, his followers would have dwindled just a few insignificant offshoots. I think BY gets credit for the Utah church and a lot of what M...

Re: Secular folks should worry.

Up to a certain point I can understand parents not wanting schools to introduce their kids to material that does not seem age appropriate. Honestly, I was uncomfortable with the degree to which my kids K-12 teachers seemed to want to indoctrinate our kids into their views on this, that, or the othe...

Re: “Peter Pan” is Unmasked as Mike Parker

The latest from the Neville Obsession Board (NOB): (emphasis in original) That's not much of an offer, Brother Pan. Brother Pan? Isn’t that Mike Parker, who resides in Hurricane, Utah, and teaches ‘adult religion classes’? You know, hate blogger Mike Parker who regularly trashes fellow Latter-day S...

Re: Secular folks should worry.

I wonder to what extent the self reported community work and involvement in community groups may be related to one's religious community. People who are religious are much more likely to be involved with some religious community, and those religious communities often provide their own social and cha...

Re: Mike Parker: The Ultimate Mopologetic Bootlick?

Is there a similar debate out there among Santa cultists over whether his workshop is at true north or the magnetic pole?

Which one is engaging in fraud?

Notice I didn't say anything about race, because we all know those magnetic northers are all damned racists.

Re: An Open Letter to Radio Free Mormon

And you criticized me for having such a narrow view. The fact that you think assault, abuse or harassment require intercourse is laughable. We’ve listened to the forensic interview. Nothing a prosecutor would find sufficient to bring charges. And public opinion hasn’t been convinced either. What do...

Re: A Man Has An NDE And Sees Joseph Smith Burning In Hell

Why are so many YouTube videos of some person talking in the driver or front passenger seat of a car?

Re: DCP Relies 100% On The Discovery Institute For His Latest Recycled Article

It’s my impression that a good amount of what the Discovery Institute puts out is pure polemics. For those more scholarly folk here, is that common for an institution that is viewed a a seriously scholarly one? How do they compare with FARMS or it’s related projects? What about the MI post DCP?

Re: Jenn Kamp Files Lawsuit Against John Dehlin

I think the case is related to her unsubstantiated claims in a youtube video regarding John Dehlin. She filed against John Dehlin first, and made a video about all of this. John Dehlin then counter-claimed. RFM beautifully reads the counter-claim and that's where all the negative stuff comes out ag...

Re: Jenn Kamp Files Lawsuit Against John Dehlin

She stated that she had already spent $20,000, and that was before filing her latest claim, which she is doing without legal assistance. Her claim sounds very anecdotal. We need hard evidence. John Dehlin will just dip into the Open Stories Foundation coffers. His reputation is probably what worrie...
