I don't post here much so your attempt at deflection rings hollow to me. I pointed out a number of flaws in your rants about the Thrive Inc, Thrive DBA under and LLC that Dehlin has. There is nothing uncommon about such things at all. Dude, you are obsessed. You try to see malfeasance and corruption in anything Dehlin does. Even when its clear to rational minds that there is none. What did Dehlin do to you to earn such spite and hatred?
I acknowledged those flaws but you, of course, want to throw the baby out with that bath water, as if one bad records search negates every point brought up about John. That's just lazy.
At this point you spend so much time telling me the same tired things over and over that I'm starting to get the feeling you're obsessed with me.

We’ve demolished Rosebud’s claims, we’ve negated this new tax claim in the space of a few minutes. You’re left with a possible trademark infringement claim.
Keep in mind Rosebud was saying Dehlin was a potential pedophile earlier when she thought she could get away with it. You keep coming back here and being surprised when we don’t bite.
As someone who has worked in branding for almost 20 years, it may be a common text treatment to do those things to those letters, it is not common practice to magically come up with the exact same logo, only with a few very very minor differences, out of the blue. If that is a custom-designed logo and not from some template somewhere (which is possible), there is no question that John or someone working for John pilfered it. They're simply too similar.
The standard for logo confusion is if a common person would see the two logos and think they were the same thing. On that, there's almost no question the two logos look almost identical. You have to actually stop and examine the two to discover the differences.
We are left with a possible trademark infringement, but let me blow that up.
JP here defers to my potential expertise, sort of. It really isn't that surprising to me that the two logos are so similar, though I have seen so many variations and workshopping of logos that I am definitely not the layperson. He does correctly know the standard that can be applied to logos (though with word marks again it can get less clear, and when there are distinct differences they can be enough). I searched the trademark database now on my computer and it seems Thrive the financial entrepreneur event looks to be on the same level as Thrive the religious related thing. They have no trademark on Thrive for financial related things, they have not sought protection for their logotype. So they legally have no legs to stand on. Their only hope would be to sue and in discovery find that the designer of Thrive religious thing definitely had Thrive financial thing's logo on their hard disk, or in an email or something that was like "hey this is what I am thinking, but we should just make enough changes to make it unique."

You only say that because you are too busy obsessing about John Dehlin to read the board. This place, to you, is just your occasional dumping ground.

consiglieri is to John Dehlin as Morty Tashman is to Mr Sneak.
No way. Consiglieri is the painted mountain tunnel for Patterson's Wile E. Coyote.
At some point I'll be challenging consig to a live debate about the Rosebud incident and demonstrating how his episode was an absolute farce, Natasha lied her way through it and John made him his patsy and consig took it hook line and sinker.

Isn't it sufficient that this farce gets forum attention at Discuss Mormonism?

You are such a butt-hurt hypocrite.
You still won't answer my simple question, why don't you and all your talented butt-hurt friends start your own show and run Johnny out of business?
JP is it:
nit picker
nit-picker
or
nitpicker?
John Dehlin lives in your head, I bet it's cramped in there.
John Dehlin is the best ex-Mormonism has to offer. He is eloquent, well-read, and an expert in Mormon doctrine and history. Indeed, this very board would not exist were it not for the efforts to establish ex-Mormons as legitimate participants in the larger coversation.
God bless John Dehlin and God bless Mormon stories.
