Also, consider this guy has no problem posting lyrics from obscure (and some not-so-obscure) rock bands as though they are his own poetry. He likes to exaggerate his importance and his sense of who he is. And if regaling a sympathetic audience of ex-Pentecostalers with exaggerated stories will get him that importance and sympathy, he’d do it.

I did. It's evidence that there's nothing inside to draw from, so he has to copy.

"He likes to exaggerate his importance and his sense of who he is."

There's nothing there, so he invents and pretends.

"And if regaling a sympathetic audience of ex-Pentecostalers with exaggerated stories will get him that importance and sympathy, he’d do it."

There's plenty in his background there, so there's no reason to copy, or to invent. The moderators at that board noted his problem there and told him to get help, because they recognized the damage and sensed the problems.

I wouldn’t doubt there’s exaggeration . . . the

DEGREE is in question.

I say again . . . if 10% of his allegations are true . . . his personal perceived existential reality was hellish.
