As much as I respect (and like) many on here, and have made some great (GREAT) friends through this site, I fear that I’m going to be taking a long vacation from this board. For some reason, I just don’t find DanielPetersonDiscussions, WilliamSchryverDiscussions, AllReligionsSuckDiscussions, and AnonymousCowardsDiscussion all that enjoyable.
Take care all. Perhaps one day I’ll return to MormonDiscussions.
(Feel free to drop me a line if you ever find the need – Runtu knows how to find me).

I can see where he's coming from. Take a look back through the last dozen pages of Terrestrial and it's basically the topics being repeated with differently worded titles.

Steuss was my last toehold here.
I still scan the board, but don't post much because of recent antics of several self-appointed defenders of the faith.
Of course, those rants are always interesting in terms of how closely they hew to the core of Mormonism, both in terms of how it was taught to me as well as the written and recorded words of earlier and founding authorities. The neo-mormonism of apologetics is a fascinating study in opportunistic rhetoric: as divorced from epistemological coherence as it is from the kindness to one's fellow humans that one would hope to find at the core of any decent belief system.
