Who's left?

Post by _Bob Loblaw »

The way things are going, within a few years the only people who will be left in the church will be the fanatics, the insane, and the ignorant.

We see that already on this board: the only LDS posters we have here regularly are nut jobs like Tobin, the ignorant nut jobs like ldsfaqs and fanatics like bcspace. If they are the wave of the future the church is in serious trouble.

Some of us, on the other hand, actually prefer a religion that includes some type of correlation with reality.

Well, yeah. I don't want to call her ignorant, but yeah.

The Interwebz has played a large part in the exodus. Free exchange of information and opinion does not help the LDS cause.

I don't think bcspace is a fanatic at all.
I don't believe his posts on here are genuine, he's just trolling.
He's a fake.

You're probably right about that. Chapel Mormons don't play around this place like he does and neither do Internet Mormons that have half a testimonkey. Clearly BC is just deluded and playing around like a kid in the sandbox. Most of what he says is gibberish and snide remarks not worth reading. How long can he keep up the act? That's anyone's guess.
