The Journal of Timothy R. Berman Studies?

[_Runtu]

I realize that a lot of us who hang out on Mormon-related message boards are a bit odd (I'm definitely including myself), but that is up there with the SAD website and MorningStar's alter ego as a large rabbit with a propensity for green, explosive diarrhea.

And, just a comment on the snippet of "erotica": why is it so many people think that overblown, florid prose is in any way erotic? It's like Droopy without the politics.

Hello,

What in the hell is wrong with Mormon apologists and how they view women?

...She ventured a finger along her well-developed chest; her nipples were already hardened as she closed her eyes and craning her neck to one side. She recalled his lips pressing softly against the curve of her neck as she allowed her fingers to caress her smooth skin...

...Her breasts were rounded, firm and had not sagged like most women her age have already experienced. Her figure was a curved as she turned to examine her plump firm ass. She was attractive and wondered how she could have been seduced by a man that pleased her in a way most men never knew how...

I wonder if he's collaborated with Mr. Schryver...

This guy is just fine in lds-inc land. ParanoidBoyd and tubbytommie keep telling members not to view pornography. They don't tell them not to write it or not to rent it out to others. This guy and the marriotts are doing just fine and I bet he pays tithing on any profits as well.

Ya gotta know how to 'play' the apostles.

[_Doctor Scratch]

A Mormon apologist who also writes erotica and publishes both under his real life name using his own picture as a logo/avatar:

That is not "LOL".

That is just plain creepy.

I don't know if anyone else endured to the end of this piece, but it seems kind of like he's writing about himself:

She felt her firm stomach squirm at his touch, his mustache tickling her as he continued to move up along her frame, his mouth reaching her mounds of flesh as he took in her left nipple.

He was not well-endowed as most men. Only five inches, but he was thick as it throbbed between her silky fingers.

As Robert Frost is supposed to have once said, "If somebody's guts [or genitals?] are going to be on the floor, let it be someone else's."

Maybe, and by the sounds of the following passage, he's also collaborated with Why "Light Cotton and the Mormon Lay" Me:

She wrapped her legs around his waist as she could feel him harden under the thin fabric of the flannel pajama bottoms he was wearing.

I happened a few moments ago to be browsing the blog of Timothy R. Berman, titled Mormon Apologetic Studies. The sidebar caught my eye. It says, "If you would like to donate to The Journal of Mormon Apologetic Research Study, please feel free to click on the paypal donate button below. Your charitable contribution is appreciated. Money donated will go to help produce the upcoming publication of the Journal and help pay potential contributing authors."

Is he claiming to be a 501(c)3 or a non-profit organization? If he's not, how he make this claim that contributions to this paypal account are charitable?

I could not endure to the end. The avatar/description connection mentioned by Scratch, the WS-esque emphasis on aging female flesh referenced by Cam, the florid prose alluded to by runtu, etc. I think LDST summed it up by saying the story in question seems like a ball of wax with all kinds of mopolofetish stuck to it.

But by far the worst is the avatar. I don't want to have that image in my mind while I'm reading anything, let alone a creepy wank yarn.

I had no idea that the world of Mopologetics was such a seedy demimonde. No wonder Droopy habitually refers to Playboy magazine.

I would advise that you and the narrator exercise caution when communing with them at FAIR.
