DCP, Hitler, and Mussolini. We're the team.

We always thought Nixon was too nice.

It seems that way.

I don't think my mother would be very proud if she knew.

That's a rather ridiculous category to put DCP in. I'm really not into RFM-type extremes.

This is what some of you people have to get out of your thick heads - I will will never be returning to Mormonism. And even if I did in very old age, perhaps, it would be for social or community purposes. Don't think, as some of you have in the past, that you're going to "win" me over again.

I couldn’t care less, to tell you the truth.

[Misster Scratch]

Oh? So Wheat is actually Will Schryver?

Some apparently believe that. It’s fine with me if they’d like to add this belief to their longer list of *things believed in but not true.*

[The Dude]

Why should the hypothesis that "Wheat = William Schryver" be abandoned?

I couldn’t care less, to tell you the truth. People can believe whatever they want to believe. Although I’m pretty sure that the site adminitsrator wouldn’t find it too hard to determine the truth of this question.

Well, I like to think that I lean towards beliefs only as long as they keep making sense …

Sure.

[Ray A]

for what it's worth, I don't think Wheat is Will Schryver.

Wheat’s wife and family agree with you.

As far as Schryver is concerned, at first I was somewhat put off by his approach to dealing with you folks. But I grew to understand and respect him as time went on. Does anyone know what happened to him?

Wheat is also, with Shryver, an extreme Runtu-hater:

I don’t hate Runtu. I just agree with Shryver that Runtu is a phony. I’m sure he’s a nice guy in most ways. But I still think he’s a hard-core apostate who uses sneaky means to destory people’s faith.



Well folks, gotta go now. Us mountain folk don’t have as much time and opportunity to spend here as you apparently do. Maybe I’ll check in again next week.
I want to express my sincere thanks to the Mormon Discussions message board for helping me to see and understand the true nature of apostasy.

What a sad, strange world view you have. Luckily, I know enough Mormons to know that this sort of thinking is not indicative of the faith but is purely your own malformed invention.

Runtu hard-core? feh!

Wheat prefers his apostates vile and mean. They're easier to hate that way. Nice people like Runtu refuse to fit into Wheat's lil apostate mold, and it both frustrates and frightens him. It's pathetic... really sad.
