I can feel at peace knowing that I don't think Mormons are prone to child molestation because they are Mormons (see here). And on, and on, and on.
So say I am a bigger idiot than "Joseph," and hold that opinion of me if you wish, it does not affect me.
Obviously you don't sleep well when you are so obsessed with Joseph.

Another fine moment in the glorious history of Cassius Asylum/University.
Poor, delusional Nehor.
I should start a poll to see if you can win anything for this brilliantly witty comeback.
"Surely he knows that DCP, The Nehor, Lamanite, and other key apologists..." -Scratch clarifying my status in apologetics "I admit it; I'm a petty, petty man." -Some Schmo
My experience is that members who are trying to defend the church do so for a while but after so many times being shown how bad most of the apologetic arguments are ...
You're absolutely wrong.
Agreed. My experience is that critics typically change the subject or the goalposts or resort to invective almost immediately when challenged. It doesn't take long rambling posts to destroy most critcal arguments against the Church. The critics are looking for these long posts because there's a better chance for a minor technicality to latch onto.

I see you are describing yourself again. Ill change my mind when I actually see destroy the real arguments and evidence against LDS truth claims. I suspect you will not be able to do this now as you haven't been able to do it in the past, but then it's not your fault the evidence is against what the church teaches.

This is certainly news to me.
Funny... I don't remember confirming or denying that I was the person in the picture.
No, but you did say, in no uncertain terms, that it was a picture of your "employer" (If I recall correctly). You've also said definitively that you're the "IT Director" for Stamford Hospital. Well, if that's true, then you lied, right here on this thread, when you denied knowing any of the people that were named.

I could, of course, know them. Or I could not. That is not information that I'll allow you to have. Tough luck.
