Re: Mormon leaders and teen marriages - did they work?

Why do men see the need to marry women so much younger than themselves? Two words: firm & nubile. I suspect power and status amongst the other horny old goats/peers played into it. I also suspect that the malleability of a girl who is not yet a woman able to resist anything he might suggest is ...

Re: Why do so many people dislike John Dehlin?

Maddie McClouskey answers the question Could 'Douchebag' Be a Feminist Insult? at the Everyday Feminist site m : Douchebag. No, really. I lov...

Re: Why do so many people dislike John Dehlin?

if the train conductor said, "if you do not stop at the flashing crossing signal, we are at a point where there will be a collision with the train i am operating," there is no threat. he never said, "if you stop, i will push you onto the tracks." he said, if you stop, there will...

Re: Why do so many people dislike John Dehlin?

The word you like to use so much is really an offense to good manners, civilized dialogue and to women generally. You're right. I apologize. Instead of calling John Dehlin "douchey," I should have instead used "obnoxious," "contemptible," or "Unimaginative, uninte...

Re: "Mormonstories," Me, Credibility, Evidence, Double Binds

So just to be clear, you can't point me to an actual smear campaign, only to rosebud's allegations of a smear campaign, correct? That's right. My original post was discussing Rosebud's alleged smear campaign and how I see similarities between the treatment she alleges she endured from John Dehlin a...

Re: Why do so many people dislike John Dehlin?

Fair enough, Rollo. I will then take my douchey comment away from the content of the letter all alone by itself, and will instead point to the letter and Dehlin's post "Messages to my family" as my response to this OP title: WHY DO SO MANY PEOPLE DISLIKE JOHN DEHLIN? One of my (many) reaso...
