Forced Out of Retirement
Posted: Sat Apr 18, 2009 5:04 pm
Good grief. I try to retire, and look what happens? In particular, my attention was called to this posting:
Is this a threat to destroy my livelihood and family, and to take away my home and life savings? I would like to remind DCP that *he* was the one who has issued threats against *my* life; *he* was the one who has now thrice threatened to ruin me via legal means. I have never done anything remotely like that. I would like to remind The Good Professor (and anyone else) that I have focused completely on Mopologetic-related issues. As for this:
"a certain other person who regards me with obsessively malignant hatred and who has conducted a focused crusade of character assassination against me for the past three years."
I completely disagree with this characterization of me. I happen to like Doctor Peterson, to think that he is a good writer, and probably a pretty good guy (though I strongly dislike his Mopologetics, and think that he's got a nasty penchant for treating people badly online). If anyone is harboring "obsessively malignant hatred," it has to be DCP, who seems to be projecting here. Think about it: I'm gone for roughly a week, and every other post was "Scratch this, Scratch that." "Scratch must be at the center of this vast conspiracy."
In any event, I return to clear the air, and to taunt the Mopologists with my "Doctor" status, as I have a Ph.D. from Cassius University. "Mister" Scratch shall remain permanently buried.

I will make every effort that I can, if this goes to trial, to discover whether my hunch is correct and, if it is, to reveal that person's identity and involvement and to dissuade him very powerfully from further attempts to harm me.
