Since John whined to a GA about an article being published about him, and had it squashed, I don't think that John is innocent in all this.

You mean like the people on this board? :lol: Oh, I forgot, since they have left the church they can be mean, proud, insincere and aggressive.

But members need always to be kind, gentle, cultish and loving. People without emotion.

Don't be so cruel to poor old Daniel.


Harmony who is still a member in good standing has forgotten to be christlike. It happens to the best of us at least according to her definition.

Also, the GA isn't innocent of offending the High Priesthood of Apologetics. Somebody needs to do something about these rogue GAs. How high up do you think the apostasy goes?

Pot meet kettle

Not that you've ever exhibited the smallest bit of Christ like behavior to anyone but yourself and the guy who got fired.....what's his name? Oh yeah Peterson.

His name will be wiped away quick enough. Just like so many of the other unpleasant things linked to Mormonism.

What is unChristlike about mentioning that no one in the real world has heard of this... or cares?
(Nevo, Jan 23) And the Melchizedek Priesthood may not have been restored until the summer of 1830, several months after the organization of the Church.

Real world?
I think about (the ward my wife is member of, no other data found...) - Hungary - European Union - Earth - Solar System - Galaxy - ...

My wife is reluctant when I am talking about holes in the system, but - interestingly - she did all verbal polls I've asked for.

DCP and/or MI is unknown here.
There are about a dozen women who speak English.
I don't know their custom of internet usage.

There is a Hungarian saying:
"Kutyaugatás nem hallatszik a mennybe."
Barking of dogs cannot be heard in heaven.
- Whenever a poet or preacher, chief or wizard spouts gibberish, the human race spends centuries deciphering the message. - Umberto Eco
- To assert that the earth revolves around the sun is as erroneous as to claim that Jesus was not born of a virgin. - Cardinal Bellarmine at the trial of Galilei

Because that might the most on-target dagger to pierce DCP's ego yet.
