That hole you insist on digging goes much faster with one of these.

I would make comment on your attempt at invoking sympathy with claims about your honesty and desire for that in others, but that is essentially a sick joke now coming from you, as has been demonstrated.

I may have to consider that for DH.

You know, you really need to read what I write better. I used the “IF” qualifier for my observation concerning his distortion of authority and superiority.

Making the assumption I slammed him for his military service is just silly, especially since I have immense respect for the US military and have been encouraging my teenage sons to serve in the US armed forces despite being Canadian.

Just as 90% of Americans and Canadians do not serve in the military, neither did I. I did serve an LDS mission. I wish I went into the military, but things happened and the opportunity passed.

So, what have we learned in our brief exchange? I have a thin skin when it comes to dishonesty and you have a thin skin when the jab hits close to home.

Wow, you can’t even get that right. What we have all learned is...you have a thin skin, you are DISHONEST, and you resort to attacks when you apparently cannot defend your position.

We have also learned that Godzilla is and was a great American vet.

Your opinion and I simply do not care what you think of me.

If you cannot grasp the significance of using qualifiers, then what’s the point of talking with you?

Where exactly have I been dishonest?

Please provide specific examples.

As usual, all you anti-Mormons do is misrepresent others.

You asked Godzilla if he was dishonorably discharged (apparently suggesting that you thought he was) in reference to his post - you are nothing if not an extremely typical Mormon apologist - always going below the belt. Attacking the messenger - modus operandi of someone without facts to back up their statements.... Disingenuous.

Perhaps you should re-read what I wrote since I did use a qualifier, and I never condemned him for his military service.

As usual, par for the course - a deliberate misrepresentation of what I wrote. Sadly, why am I not surprised?

Since I qualified my statement with “IF” and you wisely sidestepped my observation that authority and superiority are not the same thing; I consider the issue settled. Your interpretation is wrong. Period. You know it and I know it.

Your statement and inference . . . . no out right open statement - against my military service ending with a DC is putrid, and as a veteran no "IF" will ever provide adequate 'coverage' for that. Secondly, it doesn't matter about either - you are not an authority over me, nor are you superior to me.

I did not and do not condemn your service - I admire it.

I definitely do not believe you. This is more likely trying to suck up to JR to keep your sorry keester from being zotted. The fact that you attacked my military service - absolutely ignorant of it too boot - shows you hold veterans in low esteem.

Welcome to the human race. Perhaps now we’ve crossed the Rubicon and a more honest and respectful dialog can occur.

Any credible dialogue got flushed down the rubicon with that. You are a dishonest rube who when unable to present an argument goes to a personal attack. Yes, you certainly do not understand the military, for I've locked the heels of many a snotty solder with your attitude.

No, another poster was correct - you've shown all just how 'nice' mormons are.

you have a thin skin when the jab hits close to home.

I have a thin skin when a snotty nosed and arrogant canadian choses NOT to address the issue being discussed and choses to personally attack me and my record.

Nice try, but the ‘if’ qualifier isn’t related directly to the slam which was your accusation:

“Dishonorable discharge, eh?”

You really need to stop the spin and learn to write better. Or at least be intellectually honest.

And of course, every RM I know says “I wanted to serve in the military and I regret it now”. Even the LDS draft dodgers from ‘Nam.

/troll feeding

Yeah, your book that got the horrendous reviews, ROFL. I can post the review here again if you wish.

Hey eddie - did you get a real editor to clean up your smithianly poor grammer and run- on sentences?

“Even your red herring of portraying my post as a slam against your military service doesn’t speak well of your character.”

Your character shines through with every post. Lack thereof I mean.

I’m still waiting for your response. I provided several hundred passages demonstrating the New Testament teaches the Sanctified are going to be deified. I also pointed out your entire milk re meat thingy contradicts the Bible. Who exactly between us is attacking the messenger “without facts to back up their statements?”

As I’ve said before, I DO NOT CARE to convert people. My church cares, I do not. Join if you want; leave if you want. I simply do not care.

What I do care about is not allowing those who lie and distort the true teachings of Mormonism to get away with it without challenge.

That rings hollow since you make that snarky remark about his being dishonorably discharged.

It goes to show that you don't know what honor is with a low blow like that to him.

In post #190 you slammed Godzilla by implying a ‘dishonorable discharge”.

the you deny any such thing in post #243.

Mrreaganaut is right, the retarded cat is smarter than you apparently.
