Don't forget to wair your aluminum foil sombrero, otherwise there is a possibility you may spontaneously combust.



I'm not sure what a wair is, but there is no muppet monkey here; only a little spaceman.

Just to be clear, I was not referring to RFM as the greatest site on the Internet.

Hi LoaP,

I'm interested in your views on how you think the church should respond to the questions and issues brought up by Bushman.

I think Bushman provided a good statement on the problem but now what?

Too late. You already said it. No backsies.

Ever since my epiphanious apostasy I have labeled the internet as the New Expositor.

Just like the original analog one, it spread the truth about Mormonism and things that they attempted to obscure if not hide, in plain and easy to understand terms free from shifting plausibilities.

One HUGE difference between the original analog one and this new digital Expositor is that this new CAN NOT be burned down. Even at its smallest part, the impact is bigger than the whole of the current LDS church.

The internet is the 800 pound gorilla named TRUTH and he is out mopping the floor with an endless supply of 10 pound Mormon testimonkeys.

Wait, 800 pound gorilla? Nah he is like King friggin Kong.

by the way, the original topic MADE MY DAY!

I've made several posts on my blog on the topic. Feel free to dig around.
