Re: Interpreter 2.0?

Last night, I attended a celebration for George Mitten in honor of the publication of a collection of his essays, entitled Joseph Smith and Our Preparation for the Lord’s Final Judgment . The book is a nice tribute to Brother Mitten. However, I winced when I saw the cover design. Whose idea was it ...

Re: Interpreter 2.0?

The Proprietor’s announcement of the article is priceless:
As critics long ago predicted, the website of the Interpreter Foundation continues to slumber. To illustrate its unchanging hibernation, I share three new items that have recently appeared on it:

Re: Interpreter 2.0?

They must be referring to someone other than Peterson. Have we looked for this Dan Petersen? Dan Peterson has insisted that Interpreter articles go through a stringent process of peer review and editing, and must be of the highest quality before release. I may email my good friend Richard Nygren do...

Re: Pissing on "Frenchy"'s Grave?; Or, a Case Study in Mopologetic Selfishness

What's so funny is that he's been claiming over and over that he was hamstrung by the Church's own rules. But of course, he's only doing this after the fact. None of his old blog entries show him lifting so much as a pinkie finger to check up on Frenchy's records It's hard to disagree with this. I ...

Re: Pissing on "Frenchy"'s Grave?; Or, a Case Study in Mopologetic Selfishness

Lol. Yes: you'd think that, in the midst of touring through all these historic LDS places, he'd have enough distraction such that he wouldn't keep drifting back to this topic. But, typical obsessive that he is, he is not only *thinking* about it, but actually *writing* to people in order to get clar...

Re: Pissing on "Frenchy"'s Grave?; Or, a Case Study in Mopologetic Selfishness

His whole argument about the “termination” of relationships after death is warped, and citing the vows doesn’t really help his case. “Until death do us part” is referring to physical, mortal life. DCP’s interpretation, frankly, is bizarre. I doubt that most people who believe in an afterlife also th...

Re: Pissing on "Frenchy"'s Grave?; Or, a Case Study in Mopologetic Selfishness

Some interesting developments on "SeN" recently. I see that Tangata is now directly contradicting Dr. Peterson's assertions that it was "against the rules" for him to help out with Frency's eternal salvation. Recall that DCP said: Having never known nor even met any other member of Frenchy Morrell’s...

Re: Pissing on "Frenchy"'s Grave?; Or, a Case Study in Mopologetic Selfishness

I see that the spin-doctoring is in full swing: Anyway, according to [DMB] you are my "lackey" and you did something to Frenchy's Family Search record in order to curry favor with me. (Which, if it's true, was an abject failure, because I had never heard of what you supposedly did until [they] umm, ...

Re: Pissing on "Frenchy"'s Grave?; Or, a Case Study in Mopologetic Selfishness

So did Tangeta violate this? That’s a very good point, Rivendale. Back when tangata was kissing Dr. Peterson’s butt about this, DCP declared that this apparent violation of Church policy was “Wonderful!” You see: the rules don’t matter when DCP is angling for clicks on his blog; when that’s the goa...

Re: Pissing on "Frenchy"'s Grave?; Or, a Case Study in Mopologetic Selfishness

Ah, so now it’s the *Church’s* fault that he didn’t do the ordinances for Frenchy! First he tries to shift blame onto every other religious denomination on the planet, and now it’s the actual LDS Church, with its mean, stringent rules getting in the way! Except these are rules from 2020, no? And whe...
