Perhaps you've called for his recommend a bit hastily. If he believes he sustains the Prophet, has a testimony of Jesus Christ, does not affiliate with apostate groups, and keeps his covenants then he gets a recommend. His opinions beyond those questions are just that; his opinions. If he's not actively seeking to present his opinions as doctrine then he's welcome to them.
While I lately have agreed with nothing that Fus has posted regarding religion, I think calling for his recommend is out of line.

I haven't called for his reccomend. I've said that he's been dishonest in his representation of holding one and that I'm personally offended that he does. Going into the Temple is privilege, not a right, just because someone has dishonestly answered questions that they don't believe in. The guy espouses anti-church doctrine for hells sakes, but of course I'm sure his Bishop nor Stake President are not aware of this.
Why someone would choose to blithely dismiss this is in my opinion, wrong...but oh well, I've been wrong many times myself before and maybe this is one of those times.
That's up to Fus and his Conscience....oh wait...since he's actually his own Holy Ghost I guess that doesn't really matter....
