The Expose on LDS Apologists & The Invention And Coverup Of Richard Nygren

Post by MormonDiscussionInc »

This Friday at 4pm we will premier a Special News Reporting episode of Mormon Discussion.

The Link:

Title:
LDS Apologists & The Invention And Coverup Of Richard Nygren
a fictional black apologist from Birmingham Alabama

Synopsis:
Join us as we report on the shocking story of how a group of 5 white LDS apologists fabricated and perpetuated a black apologist, Richard Nygren, to provide cover for one of their own. Through detailed investigation and interviews with key players, we reveal the disturbing truth behind this deceitful act of dishonesty to their audience, the racial optics in using a person of color, and the dishonest attack on those who have pushed to shine a light on this story. As well as the coverup and the impact it has on those involved and on the Mormon apologetic/academic community.

Implications:
This story is insane and the evidence is clear. This story is important because apologists claim to be the truth tellers. They claim to be the safe space for believers. This story has impact on not just the credibility of a person or handful of people. Rather it has implications on apologetics generally, on FairLDS (F.A.I.R. or FairMormon) and it has implications on the Interpreter and Book of Mormon Central to a lesser extent. It also has a deep impact on the debate between the heartlanders especially Jonathan Neville and the proponents of a Mesoamerican setting.

This absolutely is news and this absolutely is a worthy story and it absolutely deals with Mormon Scholarship as the evidence includes deceptions that have occurred within articles of the interpreter, and Book of Mormon Central as well as the funny business that happens behind the scenes within mainline apologetics.

This story is real and the evidence is overwhelming and it deeply impacts Mormon Scholarship.

Almost self aware.
Heartlanderism is a gnostic cult within Mormonism that, ultimately, can only lead to frustration, disappointment, and loss of testimony.

For those outside the Mormon bubble(i.e. Almost the entire damned world) the OP has neglected to note that he means 4 pm to him. In his tiny little bubble. Of which location he didn't specify.

Those in different time zones will need to adjust. Or guess. Thanks OP. It's a big world out there. Just sayin'.

Bill Reel is in St. George, Utah. So, 4pm MDT, probably.
Myth is misused by the powerful to subjugate the masses all too often.
