Re: Russell McGregor: Online Mopologist Extraordinaire

The FARMS group did the exact same thing with the Hoffmann forgeries of the Salamander Letter... It's all for an image. Truth stopped being a part of their church since 1805. Yes, do the math and figure out why I chose this year as the beginning of the end of truth in Mormonism. Not just FARMS! Eld...

No, it's not. Better peer review would help, but then again, it's published in the Interpreter.
That's a very, VERY good point.
I second Dr Shades sentiment.

Re: LDS Missionary held on rape charges

Missionaries are now being taught how to trawl social media to find people they can groom into letting missionaries into their homes. They’re using members Facebook connections and groups to slot in their leading questions etc. if you are “friends” with a serving missionary on any social media plat...

Re: The Many-Transfigurations theory

None of the successors have done any of those things that Smith did. But hey, they know how to make a mountain load more of money than he did, so there is that consolation prize. That's a great point, Philo. They're really carrying on the treasure seeking mantle of Joseph. They're not doing it with...

Re: Bigotry Unleashed: "SeN" Declares Open Season on Calvinism and Other Faiths

Thanks, Dean—that does help to clarify. My understanding is the same as yours. The Mopologists have always maintained a facade where *they* never have anything negative to say about other faiths. But this latest “lashing out” against Calvinism shows that it really was a facade all along. Well they ...

Re: Russell McGregor: Online Mopologist Extraordinaire

My favorite Pahoran episode was from ZLMB, when the subject of Ronald E. Poelman's re-taped conference talk was raised. He had never heard of this and outright denied that it could be true. When his fellow apologists on the board finally managed to convince him that it happened, he immediately chan...

Trump must be pretty good at sex. According to her, he made her (a porn actor) pass out during sex.
From what? A tremendous orgasm, or his tiny hands choking her?
Probably from the amount of money he promised her if she would fake an orgasm.....

Re: The Many-Transfigurations theory

I guess it is important for LDS people to believe that Brigham Young was Joseph Smith’s successor, despite the fact that he did not see himself as such for some time. I think it is pretty obvious that he was not Smith’s successor. This does not mean he was not the leader of his community. It does n...

Re: The Many-Transfigurations theory

Apologists are always more secure with quantity than quality. They would rather have 90 pennies than a $100.00 bill, because, well more pennies! They make a nice neat looking pile of copper! Obviously they would be more impressive to the eye than a mere flat piece of single paper.
