Thank you.

I recommend reading Charles Larson's book available free online here:

mentalgymnast! Hello!

Where are YOU?

Which way do you tend to lean knowing what you know right now? On a scale of 1-10: 1 being there is no way there was a nose and 10 being there was most certainly a nose.

He's over in my thread on the fine tuning of the universe ignoring the problem and pretending to converse. At least he shows up in MY thread, neener, neener, neener! :lol:

You know what, I just thought of something. In order to believe the prophet Joseph Smith was translating the papyrus correctly and representing the Facsimiles in a dignified and honest fashion there is no room whatsoever to entertain the idea that Smith lopped off the snout of Anubis. Either the prophet got it right or he did not! Either he copied the image from the papyrus correctly into the Facsimile or he did not!

Therefore, apologists are really only left with one appropriate choice:

mentalgymnast, [personal attack deleted] With all the stuff you dole out on this board you're too afraid to answer a simple question about the jackal missing in your scriptures.

Pathetic troll!



I figured this is what you were leading up to behind all your false niceties. by the way, if you believe I've exhibited troll like behavior in this thread I would encourage you to report it to the moderators. I do not believe that you are accurate in your assessment.

You guys sure pay a lot of attention to me and follow me around. I feel rather honored. :wink:

For "pretending to converse" I think I did rather well at expressing myself. And I have to say, so did you on occasion!

Who is following you around? You yourself started this thread to engage Shulem.

I purposefully left this thread once you started doing the pejorative thingy. I'm sure that you've been having fun without me.

You do remember...long ago and far away...I had a question. You asked me to start a new thread and ask the question. This I did. I appreciated your answer. And that was it. Why do you want to bring me back in and tie a rope around my neck?

A drive by shooting question from you started this thread, [personal attack deleted]. Joseph Smith was an idiot.

I asked a simple question. 1-10?

You can't handle it. You won't handle it.
