Really? It took this long just to announce the formation of a committee to look into it and make recommendations? What a bureaucrat, Zeus has turned out to be. Well, people having sex when they shouldn't is second only to murder in seriousness. BYU's policies have revolved around the notion that if...

I consider Nightlion to be a mostly harmful, probably nice guy (never met him, but I'll take the word of others on this who have met him) who is delusional about religious thing. Can I prove it?

My personal opinion, the apologists know deep down their arguments suck, but lack any valid recourse on which to build a defense. Grasp at any straw. Promote any unworkable theory. Ignore whatever uncomf...

The big head scratcher is why Lucifer just didn't let Jesus live. Wasn't Jesus' death and resurrection actually spelled out in the original plan? Jesus lives, plan scuppered. Oops. But no, he just couldn't help himself.

Yeah, the guy certainly left a lot of clues that probably pinpointed him precisely to the powers that be, if they were paying attention. Maybe he's being interviewed especially by the MTC president to find out about the state of his testimony. He's probably having "powerful" testimony born...
