Rumor about Quinn

[_Mike Reed]

Mike Quinn is a great guy. Very smart and friendly... doesn't appear the slightest bit insane to me. The suggestion to the contrary actually seems quite absurd.

[_Yahoo Bot]

I never heard this rumor, but I did hear a rumor that he was gay.

I can assure you that Quinn is not gay. Not that there is anything wrong with it.

When I was a kid, I remember hearing adults speak about Frank Sinatra and the Mormon Mafia.

Wonder if Bob, Blixa or anyone else knows about the genesis of these old stories.

You're obviously our resident expert on Quinn. How do you know so much about him, might I ask? Was it just a matter of paying attention to the news, etc. while all this was going down?

Well, Simon, the topic has come up here so many times, that I would wager a number of people are practically experts on Quinn. Are you trying to insinuate that he is Mike Quinn? Or that he and Mike Quinn are best pals?

Hahaha Why Me. Actually, I was trying to protect Quinn from this apologist friend who claims he was/is crazy.

Quinn has been silent for quite a while. And unfortunately does not post on the internet. However, I am sure that he finds it all amusing just how critics rally around him year after year. I would rather here it all from the horse's mouth than from the cheerleader squad.

Hey why me, why don't you apologize now for your unfounded accusations against Zee?

Hello Mr. Scottie,

What was different from what Mr. Peterson did with his folks?

I'm not sure I understand the question. We have new rules about blatant personal attacks. If Dr. Peterson were to say the same thing now, I would delete it.

At the request of someone I respect I'm deleting my comments.

Grr.

Please.

We all know damn good and well that next to being an apostate, being a homosexual in Mormonism is the one of the worst insults you can throw at someone. A closeted homosexual is even one step worse.

If someone were to call someone else retarded, and then say "I love the mentally handicapped! They are some of my favorite people! I meant that as a compliment!", do you really think we wouldn't see through that??

My decision stands and I call BS on your attempt to call your blatant attack a "compliment".

The above is, technically, actionable libel.

Additionally, Dr. Peterson did not "out" Dr. Quinn. Mike "outed" himself to his friends at an MHA conference in which I was in attendance, in front of many people whose names many of you would recognize. What the venom directed to Dr. Peterson is about is apparently regarding a conversation Dr. Peterson had casually with Dr. Quinn's stake president years after Dr. Quinn had come out.

Dr. Quinn has never claimed that he was outed by Dr. Peterson, and the description of his life's journey does not include a nasty tale about Dr. Peterson. A tale invented completely by Mr. Scratch.
