Re: Epic Mormonism Live on Rosebud Accusations

As a huge infants on thrones fan, this sheds a lot of light on what happened and why Glenn is the only one left there. It sounds like Matt had a huge fallout with Glenn and some of the other in order to voices. It likely forced all of the in order to members to take sides on the Dehlin/Rosebud issue...

Re: Mormonstories good but could it also be bad?

It's a net good. For all of John's shortcomings, he has allowed hundreds of people to document all aspects of Mormonism in their own words over thousands of hours. It has dragged the church kicking and screaming towards making progress with the essays and policy changes. It's made many questioning M...

The Interpreter - A Journal of "Squinting your Eyes and From the Right Angle This Feels Ancient" can't seem to acknowledge this giant bullseye! :lol:

Re: Epic Mormonism Live on Rosebud Accusations

James Patterson has been pretty quiet since he was officially designated to be Rosebud's hype man!

Re: Epic Mormonism Live on Rosebud Accusations

He always chalks it up to the "I was raised a Mormon and I'm a white privileged guy, I acknowledge my privilege and my mistakes and try to be super aware blah blah blah" At the end of the day no matter how much training and awareness he tries to learn, he can't change the fact that he's the type of ...

Re: Epic Mormonism Live on Rosebud Accusations

Wow, that Dehlin statement is a little rocky. I can see why he shortened it. The part about his daughters being sexually assaulted was completely unnecessary and irrelevant. It's the "I can't be a racist, some of my best friends are black" trope. Not to mention publicly revealing something I'm sure ...

Re: Epic Mormonism Live on Rosebud Accusations

It's a bit disappointing that Open Stories Foundation decided NOT to implement a ban on work relationships in their new policies after this event. In an ideal world both Dehlin and Rosebud would have been fired under a no-romantic-relationships policy in 2012. John would have had to publicly admit f...

Re: Epic Mormonism Live on Rosebud Accusations

It seems to me the most reasonable claim Rosebud could have made was wrongful termination, instead of sexual harassment. The Board sneaked in an offer to transfer her to a lesser role in the company, instead of outright firing her. I imagine that's a common tactic to get around the wrongful terminat...
