However, the fact that you have a "FARMS brother" explains volumes. Quote:

What does having a FARMS brother explain to you? Quote:

I think the faithful of CG owe me (and SU and NS) a big favor. I think our POVs harden the testimonial resolve of folks here, causing even the level-headed folks like yourself to stake out positions of faith that surprise. Your Mormon great-grandchildren will thank us. I don't think that the FARMS people are consciously deceptive or fraudulent. I DO think they see themselves as fabricators of plausibility. And what choice do they have? The church has its critics. People can either defend their ideas or not. There will always be some who feel the need to defend. |

I guess what I'm saying is that I vote for whom I think will suck less. Does this make me a full blown political cynic?

Please. Your lack of humility seems to know, or at least show, few bounds. I and my posterity may or may not remain faithful to the LDS belief system but I assure you it will have nothing to do with your pedantic ramblings. I find this latest conceit the most obnoxious thing you have yet posted. I wonder if NS and SU place themselves with you in the pantheon of solidifiers of the faith?

Seriously, I was poking at myself. I hope I don't have to write 'TIC' on everything where it is intended. |
