Yup.

Indubitably.

John Dehlin is now in control of the LDS Church.

Just ask that genius Bill Hamblin.


I wonder if John could get MsJack a job, and assign Will to report to her?

I think the line of authority revealed by these events suggests rather that MsJack is God, John Dehlin is her prophet, and Will is the piss-boy.

What I love is that the majority of the 20 pages comprises stemelbow's and static's denials that the hit piece exists, their accusations that John was lying, and our refutations of the same. And Hamblin and DCP now admit that we were right, even as they cast aspersions on us for spending 20 pages discussing the subject.

According to Daniel Peterson and Bill Hamblin, John Dehlin has the power and authority to stop FARMS/FAIR from publishing articles.

John Dehlin, please use some of this "power" to permanently shut down FARMS/FAIR. The Church will forever be in your debt and I will personally give you and your lovely wife an all expense paid vacation to Hawaii.

Whatever you guys have been quoting is no longer visible on the MDD site. DCP must have been "censored" somehow. Gee, did John Dehlin have a role in this?

Interesting, DCP is now Hamblin's sidekick. Look out Hamblin, John might set his sights on you next.

Here's a question: if you were an Apostle, and the apologists were misrepresenting the facts in this way, what would you do? Would you allow them to misbehave in this way--especially given Romney's candidacy?
