I'm actually thinking about doing a short case study on Will and am considering doing a side by side between him and some of the most vulgar critics to show the disparity that I think is there.


Who has denied that some posters here are very vulgar?

No one, I just thought it might be interesting.

Sigh.

On balance, I think this place is unsalvageable.


Oh, c'mon. You speak only for yourself, Daniel. Meanwhile, we have Will claiming support for his bad behavior from assorted FARMS folk. Personally, I don't believe a word Will says, especially when he's sniggering about covert laughter from the FARMS folk, without any sort of proof to show for his sniggering, but ... in the end, the only FARMS folk we have here is you, and you speak only for yourself. Unless you're willing to go on record that more FARMS folk than just you are appalled by Will's particular brand of sexually explicit disgusting attempts at insulting humor?

Why? It's like comparing Mormon bowel movements to anti-Mormon bowel movements to see which one smells worse.

Just to clarify, Dr. Peterson has certainly not gone on record that he is appalled by "Will's particular brand of sexually explicit disgusting attempts at insulting humor." He has not--nor will he, I'd guess--specifically indict Schryver's behavior. His on-topic responses regarding Schryver's nastiness have been coy, at best.

Yeah, I don't see any reason to believe Schryver's claim that more than one person associated with FARMS finds his sexually-perverse rants "poetry" to their ears. "They" may well do so, but Schryver certainly isn't going to pony up any names--either because he's lying or because it would be quite embarrassing to the individuals named.

What threads do these come from? Sound like fun reads.


The first is from this very thread, a few pages back. The second is culled from KG's earlier KEP/Pundit thread.

Knock yourself out.


Chris, would you mind providing me a link to Will's second quote with the biscuit reference? I want to check it for context. Thanks.

Hi Liz--

My earlier statement that this quotation is from the KEP/Pundits thread was wrong. It is not.

Here's the thread from which that quotation was culled.

Sorry for the confusion.

I don't personally know of any FARMS folks who are aware of the existence of this place, let alone of any particular post by Will Schryver here. I've never heard anybody at FARMS ever mention this place. So I'm afraid that I simply can't go on record to testify that they're appalled by anything posted here.

I don't see any particular obligation for me to "go on record" to publicly declare appalling anything said in posts that I haven't read on threads that I haven't followed. I'm responsible for my own posts, but for nobody else's.

And I don't understand your apparently compelling need for me to "speak out" on this topic. It doesn't concern me and it doesn't interest me.

The sad thing is how embarrassing this must be for those who are are innocent at FARMS.

Wow, you guys must really have the communications down tight. Are all the FARMS "folks" on the Skinny-l list? do you carry walkie-talkies? Blackberries? Tell me, do you rotate an "on call" schedule for monitoring the activities of anti-Mormons?

I just find it next to unbelievable that you could be aware of what online forums all the FARMS members know of down to the detail of the particular posts. That if any member of FARMS were to come across a post by Will on this forum, that an alert would be triggered and you'd know immediately. These are some highly efficient communications protocols your cell has implemented, this is not the work of amateurs.
