Dan's contention, that the Book of Mormon horses all died from Tapiritis, has yet to be refuted.

A few good points from Dr. Peterson circa 2008:
Peterson wrote:I haven't met him (Tal Bachman).

I have no reason to believe him to be a sociopath, and certainly haven't called him one.

I have this funny notion that one should be very reluctant to form serious judgments about someone's personality without knowing him or even having met him -- certainly not on the basis of message board posts! -- and that one should be even more reluctant to publish such judgments.
Peterson wrote:Just out of curiosity, what is it that compels you to personally judge people you don't know, and to publicly post your irrelevant judgments about them?
Peterson wrote:I'm rather surprised, though, that an active member of the Church would take it upon himself to declare public judgment about the personality of a person he's never met.
Peterson wrote:Can you give examples where I've taken it upon myself to pronounce public judgment here on the off-line personalities of posters I've never met?
