... is the biggest thing to hit this board since Ms. Jack's exposé on William Schryver. Maybe even bigger, since it certainly will be a game changer as they say at the annual FAIR Conference.

by the way, I bet Dr. Peterson receives a longer standing ovation at this Conference, than ever before.

Oh, yes - DCP leaving the Review (and the manner of his dismissal) is the biggest

factor in determining the the value of his life's work for and in behalf of the monumental fraud that is Mormonism.

I think it's too early to tell. It depends upon why the decision was made. If I am correct in my own suspicions, and this signals a real intent to move towards mainstreaming and away from retrenchment, then it could be as significant as the September Six. (but in the opposite direction)

It is a non event in Mormonism which in and of itself is fairly insignificant.
In Mormon apologetics, its effects remain to be seen, but they will be seen by very few regardless of what they are.
