Nightlion needs to use red text.

Post by _Gadianton Plumber »

OK, people. We need to learn from history here. How many times have we been arguing some doctrinal point and think we are about to win when -BAM- the "not official" card if played. Or the "as a man" button is pushed. We have our own prophet among us, we have the ability to correct this problem. Nightlion, use RED text when you are speaking as a prophet. When the revolution comes and vindicates you with a new faith, we need to know.

Agree or disagree.

Disagree

If he begins using red text, he'll be charged with speaking as a moderator. Unless you ARE a moderator speaking as a man, in which case your text would be black. How would we know who is talking and in what capacity? I'm telling you, you can't win around here.

What color would you suggest for those just speaking, in general, as a loon?

Invisible ink, when he speaks as a prophet.

Size -.000000001 point type otherwise.

That ought to work very, very well.

If I understand you correctly, what you're suggesting is that when speaking as a prophet, Nightlion would use the fry sauce and that distinguising with regards to prophet vs loon would be left to our individual powers of discernment?

I think the jury came in on that about a month ago.

I would prefer, with Dale, that he used invisible ink.

He is obviously mentally unbalanced. I mean, obvious to all observers, though certainly not to himself.

Unless he is a clever plant, the guy seems to be schizotypal (DSM-IV style).

Meh.

I leave it to others to opine whether or not the Restorationist worldview necessarily produces or encourages such mental disease.

I doubt it's the restorationist worldview. According to that really interesting Dr. Sopolski lecture at Stanford that someone linked here a few days ago, it sounds like the schizotypal sort will latch onto whatever religious idiom is available to them and run with it. If it weren't Joseph Smith's religious tradition, it would be some other - take your pick.

You get the red when I get the :mrgreen: green. Sustaining votes and prayers couldn't hurt. And I need an apologist with a spine, MAN!

A little Geodon couldn't hurt, either.

For a short while I found your nutty ramblings mildly amusing, but what's up with saying something like this?
