Boylan's Blog Removed
It appears that Boylan's blog scripturalmormonism has been removed from blogspot. The rumor among some of his critics is that he doxxed an ex-Mormon and listed the names of his kids in the post. The ex-Mormon and his friends then mass reported Boylan's blog. I can't confirm that, but I've heard it from several people.
This message currently appears if you try to search for Boylan's blog. I wonder what he will do next?
Edit: I can't seem to get the screenshot to attach. But if you try to visit his blog, you'll get a screen that says, "Sorry, the blog at scripturalmormonism.blogspot.com has been removed. This address is not available for new blogs."

This must be absolutely devastating to the 3 people who read his blog twice a year.

I hope we see him return to the blogosphere with a more temperate voice.Tapir Rodeo wrote: ↑Mon Apr 08, 2024 7:15 pmIt appears that Boylan's blog scripturalmormonism has been removed from blogspot.

Re: Boylan's Blog Removed
Wow.... If this is true, it represents a devastating blow to Mopologetics. They have been warned countless times about how their tactics will eventually backfire, but they never (or seldom?) seem to listen. Has anyone checked Boylan's Twitter/X feed to see if he has said anything about this on that platform?

Even his friends can't be bothered to at least give his videos a single view. Come on DCP, you can't even click once?

Boylan is lucky they aren't suing him right now. There are some very harsh anti-doxxing laws on the books in most States now.Tapir Rodeo wrote: ↑Mon Apr 08, 2024 7:15 pmIt appears that Boylan's blog scripturalmormonism has been removed from blogspot.

I guess I'm 30% of Boylan's audience.

Any chance he can find a spot on Patheos?

Boylan posted this on his YouTube community page a few hours ago.Doctor Scratch wrote: ↑Mon Apr 08, 2024 9:11 pmWow.... If this is true, it represents a devastating blow to Mopologetics.

"For those wondering about my blog:
A bunch of people (I am pretty confident who at least some of them are . . . ) marked my blog as a "spam blog," and it was removed as a result thereof. I have disputed this with blogger/google, so hopefully it will be restored later this week. I have also queried a lawyer friend of mine in case I need to escalate things."
This is not an accurate representation of why the blog was removed based on what multiple people have told me, but Boylan is not known for his honesty. Whether he gets the blog back or not, it is clear he has learned nothing from this experience and will probably continue to doxx people. The fact that the blog was removed in the first place is an indictment on Boylan and his associates, but its likely they will just spin it as persecution.
