"This is NOT the place to ask questions"!

[_Jersey Girl]

zzyzx,

Your a liar. The story you just told is so outrageously false on its fase I can't believe you actually got comments on it.

Peddle your nonsence elsewhere. Come back when you can be honest.

The account seems plausible to me, Gaz.

[_Gazelam]

I don't question the thought that a man is going to ask questions in gospel doctrine class or a combined meeting. I do question the idea that a Bishop is going to tell those present to boycott the mans business and be backed up on that by members of the High Council.

that's a red flag to me that this story is bogus.

The story is either bogus or......happened in the twilight zone known as Utah.

That's the part that I thought was plausible.

Yeah, I found that part really, really hard to believe. The guy hadn't even fully apostatized. He just asked some questions and walked out in a huff. Even in the nuttiest wards, I couldn't imagine a Bishop immediately telling the members to boycott his business and have a high councilor back it up.

Sorry, but I'm calling BS on this story too.

By the way, you realize that you are posting on a site run by people that are hostile to the Church, right? There is no way in he** that they will give your IP address to anyone associated with the Church. Isn't that right Shades?

Also, you could save yourself some trouble and use a proxy server to post. It should effectively hide any personal information.

My apologies. A misdirected PM.

This isn't the first time that zzyzx has just made stuff up. He appears to be a pathological liar.

Daniel

I've never seen nor heard of anything even remotely like this, and can't imagine it happening.

The story fails the smell test by many miles.

I accept that it fails your "smell test" by many miles, Daniel. I have reason to believe it's plausible.

I accept that we disagree.

Jersey Girl, how many times have you attended an LDS Church? Or interacted with an LDS Bishop, excluding Internet message boards? I'm just curious.

[_why me]

It is bogus for sure. A major lawsuit would come about from an outburst like that. And a major division with the members would ensue. And to have it accepted seems like a stretch for sure by the other leaders. Nope...this is a lie. Now of course, strange things do happen. And if it did happen, the person who made the comment in the meeting needs to get a lawyer or a doctor before the lawsuit is filed. Because after the lawsuit, he will not be able to afford a lawyer or a doctor.
