Naw, stay MG 2.0. You bring out the conversation, in a negative way, but still....

As an aside, I like my true blue Mormon brother and his family. Good people, just a little delusional when it comes to certain subjects.
And that's a problem...when critics honestly see believers as delusional. That's a tough one to overcome.

Are the Cargo Cult people delusional? Are people who practice Bletonism delusional?

... being dishonest, being sexist, attacking and belittling people..
Agreed. Nobody minds hearing from a believer.

The stereotyping of nonbelievers, the name-calling, the disingenuousness of repeatedly trying to skirt the rules, the flat out dishonesty of repeatedly breaking the rules, and of course the sexism we can do without.

You're making stuff up. And you won't get any kickback from most of the people here. You, along with IHQ and others, are hypocritical. You don't call out others that ACTUALLY do some of this stuff.

There’s hundreds of examples of you behaving in the manner Marcus and Everybody Wang Chung describe. Literally hundreds.
Premise 1. Eyewitness testimony is notoriously unreliable.
Premise 2. The best evidence for the Book of Mormon is eyewitness testimony.
Conclusion. Therefore, the best evidence for the Book of Mormon is notoriously unreliable.

Nope. There’s hundreds of examples. Recently you disparaged Marcus and were called out for it. There’s plenty of evidence to back it up. I’m happy to provide many more examples if anyone wants them.

Oh, since you offered, provide each and every one of those examples. You can do so happily.

I did not disparage her. I said that she was a stubborn woman. In today's politically sensitive/charged world...and you living in the UK especially...you may see that as disparaging. I do not.

Within the context that we were communication I said what I said. No harm, no foul. As I've said before, calling a spade a spade. My opinion. But I was not trying to belittle her in anyway. Nothing in comparison AT ALL in what comes my way. But I live with it and don't get myself all wadded up like you do...consistently.

Other examples you are eternally focused on are similar. Making stuff up either out of whole cloth or misinterpreting what is being said. Or making a mountain out of a molehill.

I don't want to go off on another "he said, she said" off ramp. If that's where this goes for any length, I'm out. It's not fair to other board members and it is considered a derail.

MG
