Midgley brags about becoming fast friends with her husband, Nathan Colvin, as soon as he met him. I wonder if Nathan will still consider him a friend (assuming he ever actually did so) when Midgley gives the man's wife "a good trashing?"

The opening post here has a link to Patheos if I follow it I find I cannot read because there is this screen saying sign up and enter email address. I am unsure I want to do such a thing. I have rather limited interest in content there.If I sign up what sort of thing have I gotten myself into?

Think of it as the Spirit Paradise forum heavily moderated (ie, lots of bannings and censures of critics) in favor of Mormons along the likes of MG, AM, and the such.

Hugh Nibley claimed he bumped into Adolf Hitler, Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill, Gertrude Stein, and the Grand Duke Vladimir Romanoff. Dishonesty is baked into Mormonism.

Agreed. And sad to see Daniel give him a public platform to put it on display.
Yes absolutely. Whatever protest Daniel makes about unfair claims of moral equivalency between SeN and this board on its worst days, he is mistaken if only because he serves as an ongoing platform for one Louis Midgley.
Check out the latest, Dr. Moore:
FJ wrote:Louis: “I am writing an essay in which I may, for very good reasons, trash her. She deserves a good trashing.”

Might I gently suggest that before you do so, you might want to get an honest opinion from a friend or family member you trust about whether this is a prudent course of action.

Take my advice or leave it. Just trying to help save yourself from yourself.
Daniel Peterson wrote:Do you think that she should be exempt from criticism or challenge?

If so, why?

Are the others who should never be criticized or challenged?
FJ wrote:Daniel: “Do you think that she should be exempt from criticism or challenge? If so, why?

Dan, are we talking about legitimate and professional criticism or are we talking about a “trashing” of a woman who deserves to be “trashed?”
DCP wrote:I'm entirely confident, having known Professor Midgley well for most of my adult life and knowing his colorful way of expressing himself -- he is a very vivid personality -- that we're talking about intellectually serious professional criticism. Of course, whether you'll regard it as "legitimate" I cannot begin to say. There are sometimes disagreements on such matters.
A "very vivid personality"?

Louis Midgley > axelbeingcivil • 20 hours ago

axelbeingcivil is clearly not all that aware of the history of the Church of Jesus Christ.



axelbeingcivil > Louis Midgley • 20 hours ago

You seem weirdly obsessed with me.



DanielPeterson Mod > axelbeingcivil • 20 hours ago

abc "You seem weirdly obsessed with me."

Please don't start down this path.



axelbeingcivil > DanielPeterson • 17 hours ago

I admit, I'm being a bit hyperbolic, but Midgley keeps responding to me as if they're speaking to an audience, not to me, and it feels a little strange. If they keep it up, though, I'll just block them and be done with it.
one would imagine that DCP would see the wisdom in advising his good lds friend midgley the same. Midgley has announced plans to publish, in Peterson's journal, "a good trashing" of Gina Colvin, for no other reason than that "she deserves it."

How will Peterson spin the peer review for that?

FJ: "Dan, are we talking about legitimate and professional criticism or are we talking about a “trashing” of a woman who deserves to be “trashed?”"

I'm entirely confident, having known Professor Midgley well for most of my adult life and knowing his colorful way of expressing himself -- he is a very vivid personality -- that we're talking about intellectually serious professional criticism. Of course, whether you'll regard it as "legitimate" I cannot begin to say. There are sometimes disagreements on such matters.

Daniel: “ -- that we're talking about intellectually serious professional criticism.”

It’s a good thing we don’t have to speculate. We have Louis Midgley’s own clear and concise words about how professional and legitimate his criticism is going to be:

Louis: “Please send me this rubbish. I am writing an essay in which I may, for very good reasons, trash her. She deserves a good trashing.”

Rubbish? Trash her? She deserves a good trashing? If that’s not professional and intellectually serious criticism, then I don’t know what is.

FJ: "It’s a good thing we don’t have to speculate. "

Quite right. I don't have to speculate.

FJ: "We have Louis Midgley’s own clear and concise words about how professional and legitimate his criticism is going to be:"

No we don't.

FJ: "Rubbish? Trash her? She deserves a good trashing? If that’s not professional and intellectually serious criticism, then I don’t know what is."

Those words, of course, aren't his article. They're not even from his article. It's not written yet.

Happy to help.
a little more insight into the corrupt thinking of Peterson.

Dr Peterson has not known Louis as long, nor as well, as the many women from his home ward who carry the weight of his abusive, sadistic personality. Hey may have learned to mask the underlying monster with “academia” but I am certain the monster is still there.

Classic Mormonism in action right here. Trashing gets a new name. Colorful. Horses aren't horses. He was speaking to different audiences. It never ceases to amaze me how Mormons redefine everything to fit their world views. It isn't really an oath of suicide in the temple pre 1990. It is a covenant. And this one is covered up with "years of association" and a vivid personality. Unbelievable.

Looks like a green light to me. Consider the peer review complete before the paper has even been started. In fact, I think it will be pushed to the front of the queue just based on its prospects.

Notice how "Phillip" gave the information and then Midgley said, "Let me know if you hear anything!"

Does that sound like someone engaged in scholarly research?
