Mormon Apologetics & Misogyny: The Case of William Schryver

[_Will Schryver]

/snip/
Amen.

Oh, my!

I just noticed your sig line, and I'm still choking on a tortilla chip as a result:

"The truth claims of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are infinitesimally powerful." -- Simon Belmont

I know Simon really does mean well, but sometimes I wish he would leave defending Mormonism on this board to the professionals.





(I might have to go the ER now to have tortilla chip fragments removed from my sinuses ...)

[_Will Schryver]

What "encounter" are you talking about?

Either of these, for starters:


''Harmony is just bitter that the daily circle jerks in the Great and Spacious Trailer Park™ are the closest she has come to a bona fide sexual experience in over 40 years.

I simply cannot understand how her husband has resisted the urge to off himself for so long. Of all the men in human history who have felt compelled, no matter the cost, to “stick it out” with a bitch of a wife – Joseph Smith included – if anyone deserves the reward of 72 virgins in heaven, it’s that poor man.''

'(Kimberly does remain somewhat famous [among a small circle of otherwise respected academics] on account of my descriptions of her having once squeezed her then more voluptuous spirit tabernacle into a slinky black three-sizes-too-small dress at the 2006 Exmormon Foundation conference in Salt Lake City, which I attended. One wouldn't have believed it possible to carry melons in a pair of thimbles suspended from a thread, but miracles happen almost every day in this jaded world of cynical disbelievers.)'

Well, I can't say if you're right or wrong about getting fired for saying such things, or whether or not a company that employed an individual who said such things would be liable for punitive damages.

I've spent the better part of the past 25 years self-employed, so I don't worry about that kind of stuff.




I do, however, still feel sorry for harmony's husband ...

Hello,

So, now we have two Mormons who have called Ms. Harmony the C-word. Oh me. Oh my. What in the world is wrong with Mormonism that's causing its men to act this way?

I’m 6’ 4” and 220 lbs of lean, mean fighting machine. I’d kick your ass from here to next week.

Disrespectful putdowns to a female poster:

Settle down, dissonance. You'll give yourself a stroke.

:lol:!

Who knew that sycophancy was capable of achieving orgasm?

… a whore is a deep ditch; and a strange woman is a narrow pit.

Looking to commit adultery in his heart:

By the way, Liz, just so you know: there was nothing derogatory towards you, not at all -- you know of my growing affection for you -- let's just say I was making inquiries into whether or not you have any vacancies in your special room ... what do you call it now?

Another sexually tinged missive:

Well, I assume we're supposed to regard it as a "symbol" rather than an illustration. Perhaps it was considered in bad taste to "illustrate" with anatomically-correct images, and so they moved things around a little bit so as to not discomfit the ladies too much.

Still, the damn thing is half the diameter of his leg! That's got to "discomfit the ladies" no matter where it's positioned. ;-)

Changing the subject ... kind of.

This much is undeniable: There is no one, out of the 1000+ plus posters to have ever participated in this forum, who arouses enough interest to generate what will almost certainly become a 50+ page thread, in less than a week's time.

There have been no fewer than 100 such "hit-threads" dedicated to me over the course of the past year. All have proven overwhelmingly popular here. Say what you will, I'm good for business. If I leave this place, it shrivels up and dies within just a few hours.

My name is had for both good and evil--and very little in between--in the entire GSTP world.

Amen, consiglieri. And now that you bring it up, let me say that I am weary of all of this scrutinizing of each other's character. It is an endless loop on these Mormon boards. All of them. Everyone is looking at everyone else, standing in judgment, pointing fingers. Hey, don't get me wrong, I have done my fair share, to be sure, but isn't it getting damned boring as hell?

I could agree to this in, however, persons like WS and others put on the aires that they are Gods gift to humanity and are "professionals" at defending the LDS Church. I say anyone who puts himself in the public arena as a professional defender of the Church gets to be scrutinized on everything in their life.

A professional defender or even amateur who gives presentations at "Hazza for the LDS Church" Conference gets to scrutinized on their activities especially those activities which the actor in this case WS has admitted to being a con-artist or rather "just playing a part".

So lets take WS at his word that he is "just playing a part", if his actions are "just playing a part" then I say he is worse than the most rabid anti-mormon; he plays the part quite well, and I dare say he does not where he ends and the part begins. Such actions do more damage to the Church than any anti-mormon. A anti-mormon at least can be dismissed as someone disaffected, but in WS case he claims to be a defender and puts on that he is an upstanding member of the Church; yet his actions show otherwise.

-----------------------------------

Simon Belmont as for in real life information, as I understand the rule I can not post actually in real life information such as his employer, or home address, what I posted about the Stake Offices I stipulate may or may not be correct. It is a fine line I know, but one which I am willing to walk.

And I would think that those who truly wish to defend the Church would speak out against WS actions OR completely disavow him due to the poor example he sets.

Good thing for both you and your potential co-workers and employers. It's best for all concerned that you never meet.

I do, however, still feel sorry for harmony's husband ...

That's okay, most of us feel sorry for your wife.

Yes but if you leave, you will be back. How many times in the last 18months have you left MADB/MDD because those there did not respect your knowledge? And how many times have you returned to pronounced you piousness and issued a challenge for anyone to find insulting posts you have made?

Your arrogance and conceitedness have no bounds. It is truly a shame the way you act. How much good you could do if you were not such a complete pompous hypocrite.

Ooooh! That’s a really bad one, ain’t it? Proverbs 23:27

[speaking of the odd placement and proportions of the ithyphallic figure in Book of Abraham facsimile #2]

Well, I assume we're supposed to regard it as a "symbol" rather than an illustration. Perhaps it was considered in bad taste to "illustrate" with anatomically-correct images, and so they moved things around a little bit so as to not discomfit the ladies too much.

Now I don’t care who you are, that’s funny!

Yes, they are truly beyond the pale.

It is truly a shame the way you act.

So I’ve heard it said here. More than once.

How much good you could do if you were not such a complete pompous hypocrite.

You mean if I were a “complete pompous” apostate, instead?

No doubt I would become, overnight as it were, the single most popular exmormon here, universally praised for my good works, integrity, and towering intellectual stature.

Hello Mr. Schryver,

In either case, when you're directing those comments, whether you like it or not as a representative of Jesus Christ and His church on Earth, to any woman at any point in time, it isn't funny.
