Hi DBMormon,
It was too kind of you to go back and pay considering the over-the-top allegations against you. Some of the apologists in that thread should consider editing their accusations.
Also, I liked this quote:
TheChurchIsTrue wrote:The talk was pretty bold in terms of traditional LDS Apologetic approaches. You wouldn't really get that reading Lloyd and Smith's summary. You do, reading DB Mormon's.
No one outside of the Mopologetic community would ever take either one of those summaries seriously. Let's hope they don't edit out mentions of "traditional apologetic approaches" as they craft the official transcript.
Unfortunately for the apologists, the point is exactly right that online LDS communities, beginning with FAIR, shun folks with questions. That will never change until a certain list of names on that board give up entirely. The interesting thing about Grant is he's able to post on Faith-Promoting Rumor and Sic et Non without launching personal attacks, but while making his position clear. He's a good example of someone trying to bridge build. A certain list of names who post at MDDB would never succeed at that. They are there for blood, always have been, always will be.
