I made it a goal that if I saw you ever posting here again I would do this at the first sign of you...and there you are. I want to apologize for my treatment of you on Shades previous board. I mocked you as "Infymus Twit" because I didn't like a photo you posted of Daniel Peterson. I still don't like the photo you used but several months ago I came upon a link to your website and read your blog. I was particularly interested in your comments about your children. I see that you are a good father and that is something I can respect.
Too often on these boards, we only see one side of a person and forget that there is usually more going on. Some of us have a public and private persona and don't often show it on the boards. I know that there is a better than even chance that I might not like the way you deliver a message regarding Mormonism here or that you might use another offensive photo. Your ways are far different than mine.
I will make an effort to remember that you are a whole person ;-) and protest in some other way. I am sorry for mocking you.

I greatly admire and value what you said and did in the post above. And, I believe the world in general, and online discussion boards in particular, would be better served the more we each may emulate the principle you espoused.
Thanks, -Wade Englund-
I just did what I felt was right for me to do.
Jersey Girl
I wonder what I feel like will be right for me to do.....
Emulate the principle that Infymus espoused....interesting coming from you....Jersey Girl
When I wake up I will be hungry....but this feels so good right now aaahhhhhh........

Then you need to post an apology to every person on here that you have compared to anti-semites, every person you have accused of possessing cognitive distortion, and lastly me, for accusing me of being the reason you got banned from FAIR, even though I hadn't been on the site in a year since your accusation.

I have to say I totally laughed out loud at that! Last week when I was about to make a post, I wanted to use the word "McScholar" and I stopped myself. McTherapist! I totally love that!

Vegas, Jersey, I used McTherapist because I really think that Wade's advice is about as nutritious to us as the s*** they have on McDonald's dollar menu. How about some fries that won't digest?
And to think I once thought this guy actually cared. He was all warm and "friendly" on FAIR, trying to convince me that it was some mental deficiency on my part that caused my problems. Parent issues, and the like.
Whatever. Yeah, my family life sucks, but the church still has issues that have nothing to do with my past. I'm just glad I woke up.

I will give honor when honor is due. Jersey Girl is due honor for what she said and did here. I am still waiting for you to do and say something that warrants any reasonable consideration, let alone honor.
But, who knows. You may surprise me some day.
Thanks, -Wade Englund-
P.S. I haven't a clue what alleged "blanket assumption" you imagine that I have made. But if your track record is any indication, then it is likely something that would be complete news to me--i.e something attributed to me that I never said, and could not reasonably be thought to have suggested.

Wade, you know it's me, LSD, right? Jersey Girl
Yes, I knew it was you.
And, I apologize for my part in the "debate/mud throwing". I did not wish to dim, in any way, the edifying light that you have shown in this thread, though I suppose I have. Again, I apologize, and promise not to do so on this thread again.
