I see that at least a few posters here resort to that position when challenged. Mercury thinks I am "uniformed" or lack experience with LDS yet he cannot demonstrate that by other means than that I've simply objected to something he's stated.

It's a matter of perspective taking. Do I know what it feels like to be ostracized, betrayed, lied to? Of course I do.

Perhaps Mercury should have followed through with his invitation to interview me . Of course jumping to assumptions is far easier.

p.s. Knock off the pot and get some of that good beer!!! Prost!


Thanks for the friendly advice. I think I will stick with both, thanks. But, I do appreciate your concern.

Everyone on this planet knows what it is like to be ostracized, betrayed or lied to. But, that is hardly all this boils down to. Or am I way off base here. Again, do you know, personally, what it is to have a testimony or to lose one? I'm not sure if you answered that? Then, we can talk about perspective, within the exmormon/Mormon paradigm.

By the way, I would be happy to interview you. I don't know if anyone would be interested, though. What do you think?

I'm not a dentist, Who Knows, so don't make me pull teeth here. Saying like I did about what?

You said it about me (and others here). I'm just saying i could say the same thing about you, but it would be over-dramatic in my opinion.

Like I said in another thread - I'm done for the weekend. Have a good one!

Who Knows wrote:It's too late for a couple of reasons.

1 - you're already dead - you committed suicide remember?
2 - Jared, by this point, has probably already committed suicide himself, because of your wretched, mocking behavior. If not suicide, he's probably at the least lost all self esteem, and has no hope for a productive future life.

That, or he was like "that dude was wierd. Next!"


Ah, but I Trump you on that. I've already been reincarnated. I am living again. As what, I will not tell you. It's a secret!

I think Jared thought that I was very similar to anyone he probably ever baptized. I know a lot of people I baptized in the
England London South Mission were a lot weirder than how I came across to Jared.
