I objected to this slandering of McCue. And I object to how the Church dug into Michael Quinn's private life. If "Courtney Simpson" had written one word of criticism against the Church, she would have been swiftly excommunicated, just like Chad Hardy. At least that's my guess.
Simpson is even celebrated as a "Mormon actress" on some G-rated sites. So I'm afraid poor little me is having some difficulty coming to terms with this.
You bring up some very good points, Ray.
My understanding was that if someone was a public embarrassment to the Church, he or she would also be subject to swift excommunication.
I am actually surprised that Simpson has not had any Church action taken against her. If she is publicly identified as a Mormon practicing porn, that's pretty damning.
