Do you really want to trust "the reaction"? Because most of us see "the reaction" to your arguments as recognizing them as illogical and overly pious.

Actually, I'm just conceitedly enjoying the fact that this thread has become all about me, how much of an idiot and racist I am, how I love slavery, how I'm illogical and pious, etc. My head is swelling bigger and bigger. (If that's even possible!)

Anyone still want to talk about blacks and the priesthood, or shall we continue with the insults?

Insults it is.

Others of us would have disobeyed our priesthood elders and not killed men, women, and children.

Real world example.

You know, it's comments like this....

No, I'm saying that all of the actions of the church, given the priesthood ban, may not have been done properly; referring to your allegations about South Africa and their research into racial heritage to qualify members for temple work.

Good to see nothing's really changed here. The same people still throw out juvenile insults and make outrageous statements in the name of enlightenment.

Honest question. Do you think there is more insulting or less going on over here as compared to Cougarboard?

It's more than ironic to see the people that complained about Rocky, myself and others of making glib comments have really been the main offenders in this regard lately.

For the most part I have actually been impressed at Tex's restraint over here. Even a toned down Tex is overboard, but his CG version is much more tolerable than his CB version.

The obsession with Cougarboard by the members here is humorous.

Reminds me of how utefans can't shut up about BYU.

Or so I am told.

Seems like it was a necessary measure, given the ban. I am curious how you would have handled it. How else would one determine "black and of African descent"? (Non-African blacks were deemed kosher). You think you could just "eyeball" that?

It's not an "allegation" btw, it is a well-documented historical fact.
