For the Italian speakers here: Would it be correct to call Will Schryver a "misogino"?

LOL!

Perchè se la dice proprio così, sebbene tu (ovviamente) non riesca a capirne la ragione.

Che peccato quei due anni hai sprecati ...


Oh, I agree that two years on a mission is a waste of time. And by the way, "spreccare" has two c's.

But you still haven't explained why you would need a subjunctive verb there.

And I'm pretty sure I don't need someone who wrote "se la dice" instead of "si dice" second-guessing my Italian grammar.

But back on topic: did you ever figure out what your compelling argument is about why the vacuous platitudes, arbitrary diktats about proper Mormon social behavior, and Paul Dunn stories from General Authorities are worth any particular attention?

HINT: Quoting threats from purported ancient scriptures whose legitimacy you have not established in order to scare people into listening to LDS leaders is essentially circular reasoning.

Every record...falsified, every book rewritten...every statue...has been renamed or torn down, every date...altered...the process is continuing...minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Ideology is always right.

It would be correct to say that Will is creating an irrelevant sideshow because, like all apologists, he is too busy hunting unicorns to explain the rationale for giving a crap what modern LDS leaders have to say.

No, it doesn't. And "se la dice" is also correct, as well my usage of the subjunctive. As per usual, you don't know what you're talking about.

lol!
I thought myself the wiser to have viewed the evidence left of such a great demise. I followed every step. But the only thing I ever learned before the journey's end was there was nothing there to learn, only something to forget.

Hey I got an idea Will...

Write a paper about it and try to publish it! That always works out for you.

Real Italians write it that way all the time.

Oh, I'm sorry. You must be speaking MTC/scripture Italian, instead of real-life person Italian.

And "se la dice" is also correct, as well my usage of the subjunctive. As per usual, you don't know what you're talking about.

lol!


Yes, I do. lol!

And Italian is getting less and less meaningful for Mormons anyway, since Italy has gone from four missions to two. lol!

Sure seems like it wasn't just me who wasted two years trying to turn Italians into Mormons. lol!

And maybe "Italian" is really the name of a secret code I am making up to encipher my posts on this board, and I'm not claiming to be able to speak Italian, even though my secret code is called "Italian." lol!
