You know, Nightlion, I sometimes think I am one of the few people here who accepts you as a human being and not as a veneer of who you are.
My reasoning for this is so: If you were to realize yourself to your fullest ambitions, I think you would become a very unpopular person on this board. Look to Thomas Monson for how successful prophets get treated here. So long as you are a sort of toothless tiger, as it were, you are amusing to most people. "Entertaining" has been suggested in this thread. The Nightlion loved and supported as MDB's pet prophet is a veneer of who you see yourself to be. And make no mistake, you are a pet. Some people will likely come to your defense. For the same reasons they would be appauled if I had kicked a puppy. They wouldn't be that way if you were a wolf.
I accept you for you. I happen to not support the prophetic role you claim, but I also will not patronize you. You want to be a prophet, I give you my full assessment of you as prophet and it would not change if you converted the whole of the board and Facebook with them.
So don't grovel to me. I demand your full self as you would be. And for God's sake don't grovel for them. It's unbecoming.
I like nothing better than to be my full self. That would demand more of you than you would tolerate for a second. Too many years of sad experience has proven that.
Oh, I earned some stripes here. I used to get a lot worse than PET PUPPY or toothless tiger.
Sadly, I know none here are a true friends of mine. Not that I fail to lap up the crumbs that fall from the social table. Pathetic, has long been one of my wife's favorite words.
For forty years, half of them in and the rest out of the Church I have preached precisely the same gospel unassailed by even the slightest LDS protest as they shut their mouths at me. Yet for it all NEVER has a solitary soul come and demanded that I help him become my equal in spiritual gifts. NEVER. NOT ONCE. That is a lock on the burning of the world. When the Son of man comes shall he find faith on the earth?.........No! Not yet.
I weary of the place constantly. I can only grovel because all the world has gone after madness and will not hear of faith. The Mormons will not hear me. The Christians will not hear me. I am too proud to beat the drum on the sidewalk. If I had money I would produce a fine and dramatic dispensation of the truth before the eyes of all nations. I am kept purposefully weak so i stumble into greater and greater things (great stuff not just The Apocalrock) that being too busy in any successful way would not allow. Seems my lot so far. Man! I want that to change.
FYI In all LDS history they have yet to own a successful prophet, one who sees to the sanctification of his people.
