He’s too much of a coward for that.

He backs out of any debates that he can’t win saying they’re “gish gallop” even though that is literally all his dumb blog is.

In response, he’s having another manic episode. You can expect this to be deleted sometime today when he comes back down to reality. No wonder the other Mormon apologists consider him unhireable.

He has a peculiar obsession with other men’s wives.
Wow. Now he's going to get flagged for something else.
His obsession with other men's wives just highlights his own loneliness. The man is an incel. When he sees that men who he thinks are inferior to him have found wives, but he hasn't, he gets big feelings and starts to rage.

Imagine being those kids he tells us to pray for. Seeing this mopologist brutally insult your parents and then ask people to pray that you become Mormon is likely to make you never want to be Mormon. Boylan is too emotionally unstable to realize this.

Due to long-standing health issues which have flared up recently (e.g., severe migraines), as well as a few accidents resulting in ruptured premolars.
I wonder how he broke his teeth? Maybe the "accidents" are a punch in the face from God for his antisocial behavior. Time to listen to the burning in your teeth and act right, Bobby.

If your income is below a certain level you may get a medical card. Some people can get a card without an income test, for example, people who are entitled to a card under EU regulations.

With a medical card you can get public health services free of charge, including doctor visits and public hospital services.

The medical card covers the cost of prescription medicines but you must pay a set charge when you get the medicines – this prescription charge is the same for each item.

Medical card holders are entitled to a free dental examination in each calendar year, as well as any extractions that are required. One first-stage endodontic (root canal) treatment is also available each year for teeth at the front of the mouth.

Oh wow, so there is a real possibility he is just trying to scam people at this point. Unsurprising.

Perhaps it shows you are susceptible to being grifted and have taken the "sit on it" challenge.

Testimonies of Scriptural Mormonism
I will update the following when people submit more (feel free to do such as ScripturalMormonismATgmailDOTcom).

Testimonies of Scriptural Mormonism
----------
Hello Robert,

I'm reaching out to thank you for all the work you do. I'm a (soon-to-be) convert to the Church and your blog has helped me deal with difficulties. Every time a problem comes up that makes me doubt, I search for it on your blog and your responses are always great. It seems like you have several posts for just about every objection to the Church. Thanks so much.

I've been following Robert ever since he wrote his response to Jeff Durbin's "The Gospel for Mormons" video. Since then his blog has been a go to source when it comes to sources regarding biblical scholarship, LDS apologetics, and LDS church history, and the Early Church Fathers. I even find myself preferring his blog over more official apologetic sources like FAIR, Scripture Central, etc because I know how well read he is. If I want an scholarly article or book recommendation on a particular topic, I ask him because I know he'll know exactly what I need. Robert is one of the best minds in LDS apologetics we have.

I appreciate the work of Robert Boylan. He is the only person online I trust to to compare and contrast religion. His intelligence and passion for the subject is incomparable. To loose his voice would be a major setback for apologetics and interfaith dialogue.

I'm Nathaniel Olaer, and I serve as an Institute teacher and been good friends with Robert since 2020.

I admire Robert's work and dedication to the study of Religion and ancient texts, especially the Bible and the Book of Mormon. Robert is a theologian and a biblical scholar. Robert is very qualified to conduct studies on these fields, as he holds degrees in theology and biblical studies, and further research work on the biblical languages and historical theology.

Robert has an excellent command in Greek and Hebrew, and is the only one of his kind in the Latter-day Saint community to discuss the topic of Mariology and the theology of the Eucharist in depth. Robert wrote numerous books, including the first book to refute Sola Scriptura from a Latter-day Saint perspective, using these exegetical tools and the best of theological thinking.

Robert is a public scholar, which means he is willing to talk to people and give answers to their questions if they need to. Robert is not like those scholars who regard themselves as celebrities, when they are not. Robert is humble but bold, and if you need the best information on this subject, he is willing to give you digital materials free of charge. If someone calls out members to prove their faith, he is willing to respond by challenging church critics to a debate.

Robert's work speaks for itself, and I am a testimony of his work. His work changed my perspective on church doctrine and the Scriptures. Robert inspired me to pursue more learning on biblical scholarship and theology, and he helps me filter out information whenever I ask him questions on a particular subject on theology. Robert is one of a kind, and I give my testimony for that.

Robert Boylan has a medical card that gets him public health services free of charge, including doctor visits and public hospital services. Not content with 100% of his medical bills being paid, Robert Boylan has set up a GoFundMe account to pay for these nonexistent medical bills? This has to be one of the dumbest GoFundMe campaigns ever, and there are a lot of stupid campaigns. Here are the top 5 dumbest GoFundMe campaigns of all time:

5. You have to love Ivory's honesty. He just wants some Henny.

4. This guy gets an A for effort. Only 49,975 more donors to go.
Image


3. How is this money going to help their relationship? A lot of unanswered questions.
Image


2. Let's face it, with this much sexy you can't expect him to fly coach or take a train.

1. Robert Boylan's campaign to pay for nonexistent medical bills takes the cake as the dumbest GoFundMe campaign.

Dr. Shades, I think you might have a good point. I really wish I had read your post before I sent $100 to his GoFundMe campaign. Crap!
