Momo is still beating the horse with Celestial Kingdom:
The point is you are blaming the wrong person as a catalyst in this episode.
Where has Celestial Kingdom blamed anyone? Any reasonable person can clearly see it is Dan Peterson who is the “catalyst” for a possible lawsuit. But we are not dealing with reasonable people there. We’re dealing with an upset icon whose followers don’t know how to react any other way than to be remarkably protective of him. He is never to blame for anything. Well, Robert Ritner thinks differently apparently. It wasn’t me who was threatened with a lawsuit, after all – despite the attempts from the Madsters to flip that burden over to me.
Apparently, Ritner is receiving emails from Madsters who are attacking me.
Do your worst guys. I'm banking on the fact that Ritner
isn't stupid, he
is rational, he
is reasonable, he
can separate BS from fact, and he
won't be falling for your trap.
You know there was no editing done on our part.
Actually he doesn’t. He said he didn’t recall. But we know for a fact there was at least some editing when you guys removed posts and added more questions to Gee’s list. By telling Celestial Kingdom what he
knows, you’re just trying to ram conclusions into his brain and mouth that he never made. I was frankly surprised that nobody else remembered this. For the record, because nobody had confirmed what I recalled, I was on the brink of admitting temporary insanity. That was, until Shades came along and corroborated what I recalled. What he said makes perfect sense. Chaos provided a background commentary in reference to the possible lawsuit and that is what I was reading the pinned post. I wasn’t imagining things. It
was there. And then it
wasn’t. The mods know this, but are banking on the hopes that nobody has saved a copy of the original post. I admit only having read it once, but I remember being irritated by the legal remark in the post. It was short and subtle, but it was there. And no, it wasn't Gee who said it, it was probably Chaos. I am readily willing to concede this.
You know there was no threat from Gee in the email or a mysterious thread missing from our board.
No, he said he doesn’t recall. That is something very different from saying “I know for a fact.” This is how the mods try to nudge people along and keep them in line by forcing words into their mouths and conclusions into their brains.
There is no evidence to support it.
Well,
1) there are two eye witnesses who have not been proved guilty of snooping into private messages and then lying about it.
2) There is a documented discussion on the day of the pinned email which discusses Gee’s contemplation over a possible lawsuit.
3) We also have Will Schryver telling us that Gee specifically instructed him to warn us all of a lawsuit
4) Just yesterday we saw Dan Peterson confirming that Gee has in fact spoken with an attorney about the possibility.
All of this counts as evidence, not proof. The mods over there don’t seem to understand what constitutes proof anymore than Raz.
Of course, everything I just listed is evidence. But the Madsters will have none of it. They want it to boil down to a “he said she said,” in which case, we already know who would win that popularity contest, especially on that crazy forum. I mean for Pete’s sake, Celestial Kingdom cannot even remain friends with me without being criticized over there. Dan told him it might actually be a crime. Can you imagine what would happen if anyone dared agree with me? I have received two PMs from posters – who are respected on both sides I think - who do but for obvious reasons, won’t express it over there.
Bsix now claims I had misrepresented him a while back. Unbelievable how he reaches this conclusion:
Any reasonable reader could read my post and understand that my comment was directed at the ineffectiveness of Evangelical propaganda at converting Mormons to traditional Christianity.
Exactly what I said you said. This was my statement:
Bsix decided to start a thread bragging because he says the anti-Mormon message isn’t effective because in his experience of various callings in four different wards he is only aware of one or two people who have left because of ant-Mormon materials.
Talk about your distinction without a difference. So according to Bsix, anti-Mormon “materials” and the anti-Mormon “message” is something completely different from what he was referring to: anti-Mormon “propaganda”! This is how desperate they are to make me look like someone who misrepresents. They’re willing to risk their own credibility with dumb comments like these.
