Category 1, I think.

Hey, Bob---
You forget to add a category for those pro-LDS posters who are "scholarly," but who dishonestly manipulate sources.
Huh? Whom would that be on this Board?

You know, I always rejoice when I see you posting again because I know that I am in for a good laugh. Perhaps *you* have a short memory, but good Ol' Scratch certainly does not. By the way: when are we going out for lunch downtown? Would the Patina tasting menu be all right with you, counselor?

1. True believers who want to support and defend. They almost always ill-educated and shallowly-read.
2. Academics who waste their time and their employer's money spending time in posts defending the Church. But, they have the intellectual horses to do so and contribute occasionally.
3. The witty and urbane, who post merely to see their witticisms rather than contribute anything.
4. The smug, the self-righteous.
5. The dilettante, the accomplished in some profession or field, who contributes, but who is an amateur in academics. I frankly cannot see why such a person would spend any time on a board like this, but they do.
6. The mean, the malicious, the combatant.

This brought a smile to my face as I thought of people from MAD to plug into these various categories.
Okay, if you were given a MAD IQ test in which you had to plug the following posters into these categories and do so in under five minutes to receive a food pellet, which categories would you assign them to?
Bishop Peterson
OH GOD, it has already started. The defenders are already sucking up to him by calling him BISHOP.

You, my fellow posters, are my only contact with the real world. I post anonymously because I am a hyprocite...a weak-kneed, spineless liar. I am a sinner. I stopped believing in the church (even though deep down I know it's true) because I wanted to drink alcohol, smoke pot, and masturbate. I like to eat Cheetos until my fingers turn orange. I smear my greasy, orange fingers on clean, white surfaces. I put tape on my cat's feet. I scream at babies. I listen to filthy music, like The 2 Live Crew and Too $hort. I'm looking forward to the day when I will be able to obtain the posting status and respect of the greats: Wade, Crockett, and Peterson.
You waste Cheeto dust by smearing it on clean, white surfaces? Geez - you ARE a loser! You're supposed to lick it off your fingers, dude! Try it sometime. But do it before you put tape on your cat's feet. ;)
