"Moving beyond apologist persuasion, LDS polemicists furiously (and often fraudulently) attack any non-traditional view of Mormonism. They don't mince words -- they mince the truth."

I can't understand, therefore, why you must continue to bring up Quinns' homosexuality. Isn't it rather unfair to him?

I simply bring up the apologists' gossip about his homosexuality (including with his SP), and the fact they use his homosexuality to help their blackball campaign against him.

Interesting that you were conveniently able to "miss" multiple references to Skippy's gender in this very thread PRIOR to you referring to her as "him".

I want to know what criteria you use to define a major faith. And do you afford a minor faith the same consideration? Are the Scientologists a major faith? The Jehovah's Witnesses? The Quakers? The Shakers?
It's not that crocket doesn't want to apologize, it's that he physically isn't able to do so. An apology would signify some sort of fault on his part and we all know that he is never wrong.
