stemelbow,
There are also those whom I have little respect. I tend to have you on mental ignore here at MD and so almost missed this post.

You're giving yourself too much credit here. I only named you and BCSpace as part of the latest new comers that were going to make it even more impossible to have a NOM board of friends. Historically, the list I gave has always had a strong and vocal opposing view to the NOM's point of view. That was my intended point.

At least Nehor did and BCSpace would have contributed to a milder shades board. The last thing we needed was for a yappidy Dan lap poodle.

If you didn't start whining about Dan himself, trying your best to play it off as he has some pshychological problems, much of this never would have happened. I'm quite intrigued you've included me as one who has been a problem for that board. I simply called you out for playing games like posters often do here when it comes to responding to LDS.

Why not? But a private message board which allows a select group of posters to talk about or mention derogatorily even if only briefly any posters not on there yet from a message board they are all apart of...is obviously not operating fairly. And rightly so at the very least, it deserves criticism by those maligned and that should be expected.

At the risk of adding more oxygen to the fire, I agree with what you've said here. Which is why I complained about some of the threads on the other board. You could see where it would go.

When you don't obey priesthood authority, you will have many regrets.

I have more priesthood authority in my little finger than you could possibly imagine.

At least I wrote stuff..you inevitably write virtually nothing on this board..except to say how busy you are that you can't write anything or to write insults when unprovoked.

If you want to support Liz and that board, stop defending it


marg,

Underlined part. What the holy hell does that mean?

indeed, if you guys would stop going after him for every little thing, this would be a much more useful place. whimpering about his ego when there are plenty of large egos here, including your own, is not doing yourself or anyone any favors. Its clearly not the questioning him that's the problem. He's not even here to respond to the questioning of him, bonehead. The problem is going after him, attempting to paint him as something he is not. Ah well. You guys...

Yes, if we'd all just leave Dan to his pompousness.

But let's look at that 'leave 'em alone' sentiment. I barely could attend two weeks of Mormon meetings in a row as an adult without hearing mention of the inactives, apostates and gentiles. The Mormon church does not leave inactives, apostates and gentiles alone, but poor Danny Boy should be left alone, free to write and issue his tripe from NAMIRS. No one should ever be able to mention him, quote him, or even quote someone else if Dan is mentioned in that third party quote.

stem, here for your edifice is a nursery rhyme that must have eluded you during your childhood:

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again.

Dan has suffered some irreparable injuries to his reputation by being a mopologetic hack. Nice to see you are one of the king's men, though.
