A Belated Congrats to LifeOnaPlate

Post by _Doctor Scratch »

I noticed this over on the ironically named Mormon Dialogue board:

LifeOnaPlate wrote:Through this message board I came to know a few FAIR people individually and they invited me to do some volunteer stuff with the FAIR wiki, and to help answer questions through their email. I discovered that it was just as important to learn how to answer questions for myself as it was to try and provide answers for other people. I learned that people at FAIR have different opinions than I did about various LDS beliefs. I learned that there are a lot of unanswered questions. I learned how to ask better questions. On my own I started reading more widely about the philosophy of history, and about theology and other subjects. I became interested in religious studies. Now I'm a grad student at Georgetown University working on a master's degree in religious studies.

Wow--way to go, LoaP. Quite a nice step up from relying on FARMS, FAIR, and the CES for one's religious education.

That's nice. I wish him all the best. Hope he will become a scholar a mold similar to David Bokovoy.

Well done, LOaP. You're a smart man, and I know you'll do very well.
