Any proof for this? I, for one, don't believe it. Though I may be wrong.

Who would confuse you with an intelligent, insightful, and just all around friendly guy like Wang?

My money is this is another Belmont puppet.

You are wrong.

I've an article coming out later this year in a peer-reviewed journal. It relates to Mormonism and politics.

Mauss is well-published on Mormon topics.

Jeez man. Do you homework.


How do you publish something apologetic on Mormonism & politics?

This is creepy and stalkerish behavior. Particularly in Celestial.

Thanks for addressing this issue. I really didn't want to, but felt like I was being called on to do it.

My field is math, so I really don't really care what what the MHA has to say. Mormon studies is my hobby. If it's important enough, non-Mormons will turn heads.


So...knowing how to solve PDE's qualifies you to dismiss the MHA? That's some hubris.

I didn't dismiss the MHA but PDEs are no big deal. You just gotta use tricks to transform them into ODEs. I can show you how if you'd like.

This might be the most disingenuous thing ever posted on this board.

Somehow I don't think the lesson has been learned.
