I don't see the Church selling them there, much less published.


At the link Stormy provided, one can download a PDF of BRM's talk. At the bottom of page 1, the reader can clearly find in the footer the following:

"© INTELLECTUAL RESERVE, INC."

I understand why you might like to run from this, but you are clearly cornered.

ETA: by the way, my imaginary son returned home safe and sound from his imaginary mission about four weeks ago. You might imagine my imaginary excitement and happiness at this imagined reunion.

My "I forget your bifurcation" wasn't intended as a insult. I’m not sure how you could take it as one.

Thanks.

The good people of Portland, Oregon, fed him well.

Still waiting to ask him why he isn't trying to re-convert me...

He knows there's no hope. I've been forwarding him your posts here.

For some reason, I think of this when I consider what it might be like to transfer up to the next higher kingdom.

bcspace is busy looking for the Official Church Definition of "published."

Don't bother him.

He found it, didn't like it and is now trying to find a way of reinterpreting the word 'published'...

Space, plz reply.


Sweet! BRM actually said in that speech it's okay to harmonize doctrine with evolution if you can find a way to do it. His opinion was that it could not be done (so the doctrine would be it's BRM's opinion it can't be done).

But notice Runtu hasn't really quoted me. He actually inserted his own conclusions making it look like something I said. Notice also he hasn't provided a reference show that the article in full or in part has been published by the Church so there really isn't anything to comment on.


Actually, I did quote you, hence the quotation marks. And since you're too lazy to look up the speech,
