I can find four (redundant) threads that Droopy has going about John Dehlin. Are there more than these out there?

viewtopic.php?f=1&t=24710

viewtopic.php?f=1&t=24663

viewtopic.php?f=1&t=24705

viewtopic.php?f=1&t=24706

Also, does Droopy at any point give any indication that he's actually familiar with anything John Dehlin has to say? I'm not interested in wading through either Droopy's or John Dehlin's body of work to find out, so I'm using the leftist/cultural Marxist principle of relying on other people.

You have forgotten the two top contributers:
DCP and Willy!

Together they have stemmed the tide of evil lies against the LDS corp.
With their christlike love, inspired explanations of difficult topics, and undying dedication, they have defended their employer well.
About Joseph Smith.. How do you think his persona was influenced by being the storyteller since childhood? Mastering the art of going pale, changing his voice, and mesmerizing his audience.. How do you think he was influenced by keeping secrets and lying for his wife and the church members for decades?

I say Darth J, as the legend of this devilish anti-Mormon is the poster child for the darkness that is the promised consequence of being deceived and chained down to hell, if one is found unwise enough to venture from church supplied materials.

Pure fear ... Darth wins hands down for keeping them in.

I suppose that would work if one held a view that name removal had a significant meaning.

I don't care any more than I care that my name has landed on many lists of businesses who send me marketing materials. It is the same thing to me.

Great question Darth J!

I can easily state John Dehlin has helped many individuals stay in the Church. I know of at least 3o plus examples from acquaintences in my personal life.

As for Loran and Greg, these two have brought nothing but bigotry and similar hate to the table and I know both have helped push many members away from the Church. If Loran's/Greg's God is a Mormon God then I suppose numerous years in outer darkness await these rascally fellas.

I can't believe just how obsessed droopy is with John Dehlin right now. He's even gone over to NOM and started making assinine comments. Next thing you know he'll be participating at JD's STAYLDS site.

Oh yeah....the right answer to OP is Dehlin.
