And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why I quit MAD.

It's one thing to have bcspace, who provides references that directly refute his own assertions and never recognizes the fact, no matter how many times it's pointed out to him, provide comic relief on an occasional thread here and there. It's quite another to have a board populated with numerous bcspaces, who repeatedly engage in this behavior, and then have cheerleaders encouraging them. It's like taking a bad acid trip.

Thanks. MAD didn't like it:) I like bc's methods, too. He has now edited his signature to say "her" and is claiming he has never made an assumption of my masculinity. He's truly applying Church practices to even the most mundane aspects of his life.

In fact, I won't be surprised if we see this anime face introduced to us next month as the new apostle.


I agree, your avatar is fantastic, Zoidberg!

Guy's avatar is a picture of himself, by the way, and not a Google image of Jeremy Irons. At least, that's his story and he's sticking to it. ;)

It's interesting BCspace claims you "came out" as a female, having not originally noticed the obvious nature of your avatar. I suppose it was a mistake of me to assume he was familiar with the female reproductive organ.

That's probably because you never win anything.

But since no one else has come up with any further references/citations or any logical paths to follow for many pages now, one can only conclude you all are out of ammo.


There's nothing to refute. Your logic is assinine in the first place. It's about as lame as your logic on the adam/god issue.

Wouldn't they have to give women the priesthood first? After that, maybe they can work on giving the priesthood to cartoon characters as well.

Not that I wouldn't like women holding the priesthood, mind you. I even think there may be some precidence for it.

Not that I could imagine heaven without Anime either. At the very least I want Miyazaki's stuff.

So couples that can't have children should just divorce or not bother being married?


Read my statement again more carefully. It does not even imply that or logically follow.


The possibility of raising children is the only compelling reason to marry.

Hmm... so the only compelling reason to marry is the possibility of raising children? How am I misreading your statement. That suggests to me that couples that do not want to raise children (or other possibilities that may factor into not being able to have children) don't have a compelling reason to marry.

You tell me how I misread what you wrote.


Wow! How odd... I was so exhausted from reading this thread I never realized that I ACTUALLY DID USE THE WORD POSSIBILITY!

OMG! *smack the forehead and crazed look*

BCSPACE! PAGING BCSPACE!

My reading comprehension suffers? Please check your own as you read what I wrote. Perhaps you should read it a few times. Hopefully the enlarged font will help you in this regard.

PLEASE REREAD MY COMMENT:

Good grief! The entire thread is like this. Just wearing people down hoping they get exhausted? It worked!

No, and I've been DEEPLY offended. ;)

So, I'm sitting here contemplating that bcspace intentionally decided to NOT quote the section where I reworded his statement using the word "possibility" and then accuses me of being "hopeless".

Please look to this post bcspace (I'm assuming you saw this since you conveniently deleted that quote from the quote dialogue box) http://mormondiscussions.com/discuss/vi ... 5763#75763 and you will see the FIRST time I rephrased (and you objected) I used the word "possibility".

What should I accuse him of? Reading comprehension problems? Hopeless?

How about dishonest and a man that couldn't take the substance of my questions and chose to cherry pick quotes?
