Start on the bottom of page 3 of the included document of an interview with Watson. He verifies that Fair/Farms and Dan Peterson and others have been false about their framing of the issue. It wouldn't let me copy the letter's text but if someone finds a way this is big and confirms what my source said.

One could charitably attribute a Mandella effect of sorts... y'know... if certain individuals had a pattern of ethics that made it the most viable option.

But DCP has not only seen the 2nd Watson Letter, he held it in his own hands. DCP is one the 3 Witnesses to the letter.

DCP wouldn’t lie, would he?

This is a great thread that exposes all the lies and deception employed by the Mopologists in relation to the Watson letter.

I do hope DCP will address this discrepancy on his blog…

Wow. DCP owes this entire board, and especially beastie, a big, effusive apology. He's a lying sack of sh*t.

This is *huge*. It is absolutely devastating, irrefutable proof that the Mopologists lied, and that they lied repeatedly, and that their lies contradicted things that were personally signed off on by the First Presidency.

Guys like Mike Parker and Robert Boylan are inevitable iterations when you understand the decades long history of Mopologetics. The Second Watson Letter fiasco is a great story; I still have fond memories of getting lunch with Sock Puppet and him regaling me with a first person account of events.

"Over at the Obsession Blog, there is a veritable lollapalooza of screeching and excitement over the supposed "Second Watson Letter Scandal" or some such. There is no scandal, of course, except the one which they have created in their minds. They have taken everything I had said so completely out of context, that it is unrecognizable to me and my army of sycophants. Even my best friends and wife can't believe how utterly strange it is that they should focus on these tiny little details that are so easily explained away with my trademark well-reasoned arguments."

I too have fond memories of our lunch in Logan UT. Hope you make it out this way again.
