I notice that you have not applied Moroni's Promise to learn for yourself that the emails are true. Perhaps you do not have real faith and intent. More likely, though, you just want to sin.


I take Wade Englund approach myself. BCSpace has some kind of cognitive defect that is blocking his acceptance of the e-mails. I think is Space sits down and writes out a list of life goals as explicated by The Gospel and compares that with here he is in the present, he could draw a simple flowchart on how to achieve the Gospel Promises, which would immediately and effectively remove any roadblocks he has.

I think this assessment is spot on. If bcspace is not accepting the emails as genuine, then he is asking the wrong questions. I suggest that bcspace just accept the emails as true, and whatever gets in the way of accepting the emails as true should just be put on the shelf.

Space,

You are by far the funniest troll on these boards. I needed a good laugh tonight and you have provided it.

Thank you.

Dude, Kevin Barney came forward and said this isn't a hoax. People on Dan Peterson's Facebook have asked him straight up if it is true and he doesn't respond. That's telling because Dan always denounces false rumors when he has the chance.

Do the math.

That means that Bradford's e-mail was already leaked, before DCP then responded to Bradford and copied 18 with his reply.

So, how did the Bradford e-mail leak even before DCP responded and sent his response to 18?

I can see only two possibilities:

  • M. Gerald Bradford **IS** Doctor Scratch's informant.
  • M. Gerald Bradford and Doctor Scratch are the same person.

Laugh if you want, but it certainly explains the MI "leaking like a sieve". . .

If I'm understanding correctly, the assertion above in blue is not quite accurate, if it's referring to the following statement by DCP:

DCP, Thursday, June 14, 2012 3:18 PM email [Unknown Time Zone] , wrote:There is nothing you can do to prevent this from being an absolutely spectacular propaganda triumph for those who oppose the Institute and despise me, so don't bother trying. As a matter of fact -- since the Institute leaks like a sieve -- I had already read today (on an apostate message board) that there was soon to be a shake-up in the editorial leadership of the Review. They know about it, and they're going to feast on this for years to come.

The "leak" DCP is referring to above seems to be, specifically, Doctor Scratch's post [HERE] (together, possibly, with lostindc's reply [HERE]), and not any discussion of Bradford's June 14, 2012, 10:43 AM [Unknown Time Zone] email. I originally thought DCP was referring to Kevin Graham's thread [HERE], but given the time stamp on DCP's email that's impossible, since Kevin's message was posted on Friday, June 15, 2012 9:42pm PDT, the day after DCP's email was purportedly sent.

Wow. These predictions were made BEFORE Bradford emailed Peterson. Leaky like a sieve indeed!

Yeah, it looks like the Maxwell Institute is a house divided against itself, full of traiters, money laundering, and all kinds of juicy scandals. Follow the money trail and that's where you'll find thieves too. Hands in the cookie jar!
