20 Signs That Mopologists Can Be Believed And Trusted
  1. A Mopologist will claim that they are a personal eyewitness to the Second Watson Letter, even claiming to have held it with their own hands. The Mopologist will then immediately cease talking about it once ironclad proof comes out that there never was a Second Watson Letter.
  2. A Mopologist will go on a podcast and proclaim that after learning perfect German on their mission, that their accent had been permanently changed.
  3. A Mopologist will publicly post real lynching photos with "funny" captions and later be forced to take the photos down and issue a public apology.
  4. A Mopologist will be publicly caught plagiarizing hundreds of times, and will issue a public apology, but this will still not stop their behavior and they will continue to plagiarize most of their articles/writings.
  5. A Mopologist will be fired from the Maxwell Institute for allowing and encouraging the publishing of hit pieces, personal attacks and ad hominem. The Mopologist will spend the next several years publicly attacking their former employer/organization and anyone they feel contributed to their ouster.
  6. A Mopologist will commit animal cruelty, abuse, torture and inflict physical pain on a cat while traveling to the Middle East.
  7. A Mopologist will squander millions of dollars making two historically white-washed box office bombs. And after receiving millions in donations, will promise to be 100% financially transparent. Subsequently, the Mopologist will decide not be financially transparent.
  8. A Mopologist will show their deep-seated racism by publicly posting that Blacks should be grateful for slavery because they now get to live in the U.S.
  9. A Mopoligist will show their deep-seated homophobia by publicly attacking Amazon for removing books that promote conversion therapy.
  10. A Mopologist will show their deep-seated misogyny by publicly supporting William Schryver's verbal sexual assault on a well-respected female Evangelical and scholar, publicly writing that they saw nothing wrong with William's behavior.
  11. A Mopologist will libel and slander well-respected Egyptologist Robert Ritner by insuating Robert was removed from John Gee's dissertation committee due to making sexual advances at John. These lies/slander/libel will continue until Robert threatens to sue the Mopologist.
  12. A Mopologist will engage in numerous smear campaigns against Mormons and non-Mormons alike for various reasons, most of them personal.
  13. A Mopologist will again show their deep-seated homophobia and will attack and slander well-respected Mormon historian Michael Quinn for being gay.
  14. A Mopologist will use their influence and publicly encourage (for over a decade) that people donate to an evil, corrupt and sexually abusive organization that facilitated human trafficking, run by sexual predator, Tim Ballard.
  15. A Mopologist will accept a 10k donation from Dr. Moore in exchange for their promise stop bad mouthing the Discussmormonism board, but almost immediately after accepting the money, the Mopologist will break their promise and will refuse to return the money.
  16. A Mopologist will host a blog where they will spend most of their, talents and energy personally attacking, belittling and insulting others.
  17. A Mopologist will constantly promote psuedo-scientific and fringe theories, like dowsing and ESP.
  18. A Mopologist will confront a soft-spoken, humble and gentle Maxwell Employee, Blair Hodges and tell him to, "Go To Hell."
  19. A Mopologist will take a paid sabbatical from BYU in exchange for their promise to use that time to finish two books. However, the Mopologist will never finish the books or even attempt to try.
  20. A Mopologist will attack and belittle other faiths, including but not limited to, the Community of Christ, Evangelicals, Strangites, Scientologists and Calvinism.

Some thought-provoking observations here, Stake President Wang Chung. It's interesting: I noticed that the Afore devoted quite a bit of time and attention during this Easter week to attacking *you*. For a person who claims to be a "Type B Personality," he is remarkably vindictive with a nasty penchant for carrying years-long grudges. Maybe that's why Easter is so meaningful to him: it's like he can keep "resurrecting" these various reasons for feeling offended and pissed-off. You think that maybe--at last!--he's moved on, and his indignation has been laid to rest and has, in a sense, "passed on" to the Spirit Realm, but then, no--here he comes again, all outraged over some piddling thing yet again.

I'm flattered that during this sacred Easter Weekend, instead of meditating and dwelling on the Savior's Resurrection, I have been first and foremost in the mind of the Afore. The Afore's obsession with his critics (both real and imagined) is truly all-consuming. I worry about the Afore's mental health.

I can't think of a single person more consumed by hate-fuel grudges and keeping score than the Afore. The Afore has been nursing decades-long grudges against Christopher Hitchens, Gerald Bradford, Cecil Samuelson, Angela Lansbury, Hugh Grant, Carl Sagan, Jonathan Neville, Bill
Maher and any number of other individuals. It really is quite unbecoming of a self-proclaimed disciple of Christ.

I almost forgot:

21. A Mopologist will assume the editorship of FARMS and approve a hidden message/acrostic in a review of Mormon scholar, Brent Metcalfe’s work in the 1994 Review of Books. When the first letters of each paragraph of the review are put together, they spell, "METCALFE IS BUTTHEAD."

The sure signs of mopologists' integrity.

I hope Dr. Peterson has nothing disparaging to say about Pope Francis now that he has died.
