Off. Be gone.
I have as much right to be here and say what I have to say as anyone else.

Unless the board rules are changed.

Peace.

MG

You have as much right as anyone to say what you will.

But you are boring and offer nothing new. And you don't answer questions.

So, beat it. Would ya?

Thanks.

No, still not buying it. The way mentalgymnast tries to demean and insult others would never qualify as missionary work, at least not to legitimate missionaries. There's some other obsession driving this one. Or, like was suggested, maybe he's just that lonely.
Much of what you observe and experience has to do with which side of the fence you're on.

You’re one of the nastiest and meanest posters. You’re rude to others. Your opening post is mean to others. It’s the opposite of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. So you’re deluded or lying. Everytime you post (and you post a lot!) the curtain is pulled back just a little bit more.
My opening post was not mean.
Yes it was. Deliberately so. And hypocritical. You’re a bit of a scumbag. I suspect that you’re overcompensating for something that’s amiss in your life.
Premise 1. Eyewitness testimony is notoriously unreliable.
Premise 2. The best evidence for the Book of Mormon is eyewitness testimony.
Conclusion. Therefore, the best evidence for the Book of Mormon is notoriously unreliable.

Mental claims he is under a covenant to be here in order to share and express his belief/testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Let's take a brief look to see if Mental is being honest about his motivation for being here.

President Nelson couldn't have been more clear about how Mormons are to interact online:

"My dear brothers and sisters, how we treat each other really matters! How we speak to and about others at home, at church, at work, and online really matters. Today, I am asking us to interact with others in a higher, holier way. Please listen carefully. “If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy” that we can say about another person—whether to his face or behind her back—that should be our standard of communication. Today I invite you to examine your discipleship within the context of the way you treat others. I bless you to make any adjustments that may be needed so that your behavior is ennobling, respectful, and representative of a true follower of Jesus Christ. I bless you to replace belligerence with beseeching, animosity with understanding, and contention with peace."


Take a quick look at a few of Mental's comments on this board. While reading these comments, ask yourself if Mental is truly here to express his belief/testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, or if he is here for some other reason. The answer should be quite obvious:
By the way, loser, we are already well aware that you don't believe in the Divine calling of Joseph Smith...so what's your point in preaching to the choir? You already know you're gonna just get high fives. So what's your point? Much ado about nothing, isn't it? You're a loser, grindael. Ya, I know I just called you a loser. But the shoe fits.
No s*** Sherlock. My word! It was making me dizzy. :lol:
What kind of person ARE you? You come across as a rather mean grumpy old man.
Give us a time stamp that actually makes your point or shut up. Rivendale? Are you there? IHQ is not helping you.You are getting tiresome, IHQ. Honestly. Sheesh.
Coming from someone that doesn’t believe we have a Heavenly Father, that’s rich.
For being a smart guy, the playing dumb routine ain’t working brother. I’m referring to your defensiveness. You appear to be stumbling over your words. You may want to try harder and read for comprehension. One too many? Come back when you’re sobered up?
For a smart guy, you say some dumb things, Gadianton. And for the record, I’m not calling you dumb. Im just saying that now and then you say some dumb things. Like what you just said
Have you no shame? 80-90% of your responses to me are large volume cut and pastes. For being such a smart person (you do work in the academy from what I seem to remember) you sure do some dumb things. Folks, take a look at what this lady can do. Isn’t she amazing? Not only the board nanny but also the cut and paste queen. What skill! What acumen!
Don’t act dumb.
I don’t think you’re married. Oh, by the way, I’m not being chauvinistic.
You haven’t been able to get this far by not having a bit of the poseur in you, I’m sure.
You keep doing that. I’m assuming it has some meaning? Better than your stupid GIF’s and dumb videos though. Maybe that’s an improvement.
Calling you an apostate doesn’t mean I hate you. Good day. Now I’m off.
How in the world would you, of all people, be able to know what active, believing members of the church get out of the talks? You are a critic and apostate.
You are a liar. I have made it clear that I watched the conversation between Jacob and Jeff.
I think I am now done with you. I have no respect, whatsoever, for you. Carry on with your childish and immature responses

That's going to be difficult. I don't know him in real life to the best of my knowledge. I've asked him a number of times to PM me and prove that he knows me in real life.

Up to now...no response

What to make of that?

MG, please give me permission to post your name here. It will be simple to verify if I'm telling the truth.

I'll reach out to John Williams (Runtu) who also knows you in real life and have him post here to publicly verify if I indeed posted your real name. I know you and I both trust that John will be honest.

What say you, friend?

Let's chat via PM. Reach out to me.

That shouldn't be a problem should it?

Otherwise, as far as I'm concerned, you're hiding something. Tell me who YOU are. Your name should ring a bell, right?

I look forward to your PM. Up to now for some reason or another you have chosen not to go that route.

I definitely do not see eye to eye with you on this. I would invite others to read the whole thread contextually.

Post the link to the thread if you would like. I have nothing to hide or be ashamed of. I do think that the thrust/gist of what I said actually broke some new ground.

Honestly? I've had the same or similar thoughts in regards to you.

Isn't that mean?
