...Blanket insults to the extent that this is an inherently biased place of one-sided bashers is a bit too reductionist, even for you, wouldn't you agree?

Themis, you I often try and make things conform to your my own life experiences and limited views of reality. You I then overlay that on others. That results in partial truth telling. Your my view is distorted.

There’s always more to the story. Lemmie I was just looking for a quick ‘high five’ gold star on my forehead from Heavenly Father. She I often doesn’t think things through.
Fixed it for you because in all abject seriousness, it fits, and your lack of awareness of it is staggering
Lol! Thanks, Philo! Well done.

Kind of like that look a Mama Bear on the Appalachian Trail gives you when she sees that you are, sadly, standing between her and her cubs. Doc knows what I mean! EVERYONE should just back away slowly. :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: )

MG:

If someone gets angry because they find out the church isn't what it has been claiming to be for years and years and then gets a million denials from defenders and leaders of what obviously is happening, is this someone justified in being angry? You and your apologist buddies seem to think it is a victory when exmormons get angry when discussing the obvious fraud. Why is that? It's a fraud. We should be angry.

If you had been victimized by Bernie Maddoff and lost your retirement, wouldn't you be angry? You realize the church is sitting on billions and the leaders wouldn't tell the members about it because the leaders didn't want contributions to lessen, right? Does that bother you? Shouldn't it? Do you agree that the paying of tithing is a way out of poverty as Pres. Nelson dubiously claims? Isn't it really a silly justification for further parasitic behavior by a rich church against poor people who cannot afford yet more subjugation by westerners?

[MG]backed off from attacking Jersey the other day...
Not a chance. I didn’t see any point having a conversation with her. Angry people don’t make good conversationalists. And to be clear, any offense that I may have given you has nothing to do with gender. It’s due to the plain, hard facts. If you’re lying, I’m going to call it out. If you’re setting up a straw man, etc., same thing.

In another post up thread you made it appear I had said you were full of crap. Not true. It was Kerry Shirts I was assigning that truth of the matter designation to.

So yeah, if you’re doing the ‘twist (the facts) and shout’ thing that you do when you’re on the losing end of the stick I’m going to call you out. It doesn’t matter that you happen to be a woman.

MG

Seems like MG is having a bad day and can't be counted on for a reasonable conversation. Back to ignore, then.

Yeah. You know it's gotta be bad when even a Jersey Girl thinks you're beneath her.
