But of course. Some of the most useful and damning of historical truths have come from books written by those who are now disfellowshipped, ex'd or have otherwise resigned.

Kudos to the keepers of the wisdom of the emporer with no clothes.

Since when did “fallible” become a euphemism for pompous ass, DP?

A simple apology for misjudging CK and not knowing your own publication would suffice.

Hello PrecogUnction,

Have you posted on this or other Mormon boards before? Just curious if we've had any interaction prior to the present. Welcome to MDB.

PU, you really ought to meet the Comtesse de la Tourette. You two will get along famously.

Someone's going to think you have an obsession with your Comtesse, Daniel.

I’ve posted on numerous boards - some on Mormonism, most not. I’m a binary vagabond.

DP, would the Countess teach me the manners that you lack? Or was that your idea of an apology?

Daniel does not give out simple apologies, Precog. Especially when people publically point out his mistakes.

Daniel, I don't believe I ever called you a pompous ass. I much prefer arrogant prick. And you thought I was the only person with that opinion?! Perhaps Precog knows you better than I.

I'm happy that you two have now met.

I'll be gone for a few days. I'll miss some of the high quality discussion here.

Alas! Who will raise the bar in your absence?
