Did the Church "Bail Out" Interpreter with Tithing Money?

[Kishkumen]

Enemies? Ugh.

[malkie]

Enemies? Ugh.

That reaction alone may sit you firmly in that camp (of enemies, I mean).

In summary, of all non-profits in America, mission statements that mention "enemies" are either (1) United States Armed Forces veteran support groups, or (2) The Interpreter Foundation.

You said "emphasis added" after both, did you mean just the bold or did you put the Interpreter's mission statement in all caps?

[Everybody Wang Chung]

I noticed that The Interpreter just filed an Amended Mission Statement. It now reads as follows:

"Our main mission is to facilitate the transfer of money from Parowan widow's accounts to our back pockets. Another of our core functions is to make ourselves look important by demonstrating our pseudo-scholarship and pseudo-authority. We care about the planet and therefore recycle all of the literature we print. Another mission of ours is to devise mind-bending and complex answers to the simplest questions. Ignorance on the part of our donors and insatiable greed on our/DCP's part make for a potent combination of ridiculous articles and services. We pride ourselves in creating perceived value from nothing since 2012."

I doubt that’s true. At 93, one has outlived most of their friends.

They’re younger than him…

Edit: pretty sure he can’t leave his house.

That has been DCP's motto since 1978, when he had hair.

So, your assertion is that Midgley is a liar?

[Doctor Scratch]

Great find, Dr. Moore. Mopologetics cannot exist without enemies. And for the most part, they *create* their own adversaries, such as the fights they've picked with the Transhumanists, the Heartlanders, and many others.
