Or even "I'm sorry if anyone was offended".

Yeah, "I still don't think I really did it, but the evidence seems to indicate that I probably did, so if anyone was offended, I apologize" isn't much of an apology. Weak sauce.
Mormonism ceased being a compelling topic for me when I finally came to terms with its transformation from a personality cult into a combination of a real estate company, a SuperPac, and Westboro Baptist Church. - Kishkumen

It’s relatively easy to agree that only Homo sapiens can speak about things that don’t really exist, and believe six impossible things before breakfast. You could never convince a monkey to give you a banana by promising him limitless bananas after death in monkey heaven.

Snort.

Schryver is one of those issues I just try not to invest in as a matter of principle. He appears to have an insatiable appetite for attention, however negative and/or humiliating, and my default response to that kind of person is to permanently ignore them. I do appreciate Ms. Jack's diligence in documenting his online behavior. I don't have that level of intestinal fortitude myself. Her formidable indictment should serve as ample warning against any inclination to take him too seriously.
