My guess he is under some sort of sanction not to talk further on this matter. I wonder post Grant Palmer, if they have some proviso on pensions not to discuss things openly?
True.

Given how close the Danzing thing is to this, I wonder if the "Caring of the Flock" article on LDS.org was a warning shot for Jessop.


Tie these all together please. What ties Danzing, Palmer, Jessop, and the article together?

Jessop’s last appearance at his mo'tab job was three days after the Peter and Mary Danzig story was printed. Then came the one from the spin docs on LDS.org.

Palmer? Remember he took his story to the public? So did Danzig. Perhaps LDS Inc did not want another publicity snafu and this was a preemptive strike? Especially with someone who MANY older Mormon members revered and respected.

If there's more out there, given the nature of the Internet, it will eventually surface.

People going through situations that they characterize as a "crossroads" with respect to the LDS Church generally tend to find their way online to support/discussion groups one way or the other.
The road is beautiful, treacherous, and full of twists and turns.

I hope not. I like that guy and wouldn't want to order my Danite squad to take care of that problem.

Is that a threat of physical harm or death to Craig Jessop coming from you on a public discussion board?

Sorry, but I fail to see any humor in poor choice of words.

Sorry Porter, but your humor tends to be of the redneck variety and I don't see any humor in it. I would be scared if you did appreciate my humor. Would make me wonder what I was becoming.

This is out of line, even if you are trying to be funny.

Hey loser, I have never threatened to kill or maim ANYONE on or off the board and have never even joked about it.

The said reality of your comment is that you threatened one of your own, even someone that you claim to "like". Trying to be liiiike who? Brigham?

Unless you think I am actually a Danite Squad Member you missed the sarcasm, making you a moron. If you do think I'm a Danite Squad Leader, then I'd be impressed if you can also dress yourself. I literally cannot stop laughing right now trying to imagine an insulting prat like you trying to be morally indignant. Can you YouTube this please?

You mean by bringing him dinner, mowing his lawn, and inviting him to the next ward campout?

(see, one doesn't need to read death threats into your comment, but I would advise you not to say something you know will be taken as a joking threat--joke threats aren't funny).
