On Father's Day this year, I called my father (an Air Force retiree who served 20+ years) a traitor for continuing to support this man.

I regret nothing.

Get him, Other Jack.

As I detailed in my recent MBR interview, I did not get into BYU the first time I applied. I had something of a love-hate relationship with an apologist (now ex-apologist) whom we all know but whom I won't name. He was about 10 years older than me, so ~28 to my 18. I told this person in private that...

Blake and Perry Robinson did go the rounds with each other. "He only gave as good as he got" has forever been the defense of choice for ill-behaved apologists, but that's objectively not true in this case. They both said nasty things, but only one of the said "I'll try to harm your career then," an...

Care to post links in which he has taken the low road rather than the high road? https://energeticprocession.wordpress.com/2007/11/03/a-sign-of-the-apocalypse/#comment-5289 Threatening to get somebody kicked out of their doctoral program over an online dispute seems like "low road" behavior to me. ...

If I recall correctly Beastie was in her 50s way back in 2006-07 so hopefully she's living that sweet retired life. Yes, I believe she was in her 50s or 60s during my Schryver thread, which would put her in her 60s or 70s now. My 37yo-ex-BIL (first husband's sister's estranged husband) was killed b...

blixa was one of my all-time favourite posters. Anyone know anything about her? Blixa is doing well and living life. Beastie definitely posted quite a bit on the original MDB, but I don't believe we've seen her here since the migration. I did not know her in real life. I hope she's okay. As long as...

Thank you. Since you posted this I've been able to do some research (with your help) which further brought to light for me how the concept of the LDS priesthood is a theological and historical liability. Happy to have helped. This last point does seem like the obvious real reason for Mormon priesth...

Ms Jack, I enjoyed your interview, thankyou. I hope you continue your project of relating to Mormonism aiming at clarity and understanding instead of hostility. Best wishes for that as well as your other professional goals. Well deserved. Your professionalism and composure were top notch Thank you ...

Chapter 2 "Despite many modern polemical assertions to the contrary, the Bible offers no clear, definitive consensus on either the question of whether God possesses gender or the question whether human beings will possess one in the next life' P. 15 if one accepts the resurrection would not that bo...

great interview, you do a great job telling a dynamic story but without rambling. And so even though it was a long interview, it moved along nicely. I hope that you see a UAP because I like UAP stories, but UAP witnesses tend to be terrible YouTube presenters. I may be out of the loop here---what d...
