The prophet of the week! Congrats, sir.
BH is either a troll with no interest in discussion or he is, as all his posts have demonstrated, incapable of such. At this point my money is on the former.

Too bad you didn't double-down your hand.

I've reread the beginning thread you linked, and frankly he was met with the level of respect he was showing for others. Later he started the "Are all Mormons cowards???" thread. He came out throwing punches, he doesn't get to complain if he ends up with a broken nose.


What he writes in other threads is irrelevant to that one thread. To be fair in the thread I linked to he wasn't very disrespectful to Mormons. Perhaps in other threads he is..but what he says in other threads should not be a reason to moderate a thread in such a way that he gets penalized as opposed to those goading him. That thread got moved to Terrestial where attacks are allowed, when in my opinion what should have happened is those goading him in the thread which he began in Celestial, their posts alone should have been moved.

In a page of about 14 paragraphs he wrote only the following which can be construed as insulting to Mormons:

"To those who wish to just ignore reality and continue to "think" what the LDS organization tells them to "think", just pass over this challenge and enjoy your life as best you can. And please ...don’t try to change the subject by making ME (or anyone or anything else) the issue here. Such behaviors will be quickly identified and exposed and will only prove that you yourself know you cannot meet the challenge I have presented here. "

That's not a personal attack. As well it is a fact that the Mormon church discourages members reading material which they consider anti-Mormonism and that vocal members in the public eye have been penalized by being excommunicated when their books have been considered anti Mormon material.
