A Very Entertaining Thread on MD&D Right Now

Post by _Racer »

http://www.mormondialogue.org/topic/583 ... -be-false/

Has an apologist ever defended something and it turned out to be false?

I had a good laugh reading some of the responses. In typical fashion hardly anyone can give a straight "yes" or "no" answer. There is are also some funny responses from the kool-aid drinkers trying to put a positive spin on FARMS defense of the Salamander Letter. The letter was a hoax, FARMS defended it, they were wrong. End of story right? Not according to many of the MD&D folks. :lol:
Tapirs... Yeah... That's the ticket!

I think Rob Bowman does a good job in handling those clowns. At least as good as he can do without getting the boot.

I'm surprised that they've continued this policy. I don't know why the remaining critics continue to engage them over there since now there can't be that many lurkers.

Or just clear out your cookies and it will let you right back in.

As I was pursuing that thread, I seemed to notice that some of the posters were stating that Joseph Smith may have translated the Book of Mormon by just looking at the plates. Did anyone else notice that?

Not a problem, Cicero. And yes, I think our contributor line-up is fantastic as well.
