Come on, GoodK. You and I both know . . . Well, you and I both know, don't we?
Shut your damned pie hole you destroyer of families.

All you care about is your goddamned reputation as a feelingless sonofabitch who only stands for his selfish ego.

How about an apology? Or is that word and feeling outside of your arrogant self serving online persona?

While I do agree that there are good members of the LDS faith, you Mr. Daniel C. Peterson, are not.

I can only hope that someday, both you and your best friend Bob Crockett, feel the same wretched pain that you and he have brought upon GoodK.

Bravo to both of you sonsabitches, you slayer of families, you have served the church well as Bishop. It is my hope that one day, both of you have a child who leaves the church and curses you for raising them in it.

I know you will sleep well tonight.

I'm not the monster that some here delight in portraying me to be, and I would be more than happy to help, or to try to locate help, if I'm able.


Thanks, DCP. I believe you are entirely sincere and have never thought you to be a "monster" or anything other than what you say you are. I am convinced you believe what you say you believe and that you attempt to and hope to help people be happy, with perhaps some of the weaknesses (and occasional mistakes) that go along with being human, but with strengths that far surpass those weaknesses in my view. Maybe it is because I know you better than you have reason to believe I do. However, all that said, I'm not sure you can help me right now, but thanks very much for the offer.

Do not be lured into his web.

He gets off on outing people just like you. He revels in the tears shed by family members of those he holds up as trophies.

DO NOT GIVE HIM YOUR REAL NAME.

Besides, the cult does not have you by the balls, no sir, it is worse, they have you by your sweetheart and your beloved children. It is part of their plan. Either join us or we will rip your family apart.

Daniel is just another snitch.

You don't really think I would do this, do you? i said what I mean about DCP, but what I didn't say is that I understand how the church works, and I understand how intentions to "help" someone in my circumstance can just as quickly become intentions to discredit me if I end up not being able to be helped. You see, some people respect me and trust me and the Church fears that those people will be influenced by me and that could lead to portraying me in an, err, unfavorable light. Oh, I know how it can work. Thanks for your concern, but no, I will not be subjecting myself to those possibilities. It can be quite scary if you think about it.

You may be right, mms, that I wouldn't be able to help you.

I would not, however, violate a confidence.

I didn't even remember that the josephsmith.net website even exists, actually! Good catch.


I also remember some claiming erroneously that references to Joseph Smith' plural marriages did not exist on that site.

Right.

And Goodk would still have the warmth of a family to turn to when the world feels cold.

You bishops and apologists are all the same.

Are you done here? I hear they are holding a heroes welcome for you back at your stomping ground at the MA&D house.
