DAVEH: Dean, I admit to sometimes joshing you a bit. Seems like after all you've
done for/to me, I should take a pot shot at you now and then. If you are offended,
let me know and I'll try to tone it down a bit.

DAVEH: 'Anger'???.......I don't think you know me very well, Dean. I have a very
tolerant attitude and am very slow to anger.

DAVEH: I'm not ignoring it.....I've just been a bit too busy to respond to every
post. I hope to respond to your wounded psyche as I get a chance. I'd do it now,
except I'm out of town and it resides on my home computer.

DAVEH: Nobody thinks you are wrong for exposing what you think is wrong, Dean. What
seems to bother a lot of folks is the manner in which you do your exposing. I would
ask you who you are intending to educate......the Mormons or the non Mormons?
Mocking our sacred edifices, doctrines, beliefs and clothing does little to endure LDS
folks to your cause. I'm not sure it endures anybody else to your cause
either.....except perhaps other wackos.

DAVEH: No Dean....not the words of Christ do I have trouble accepting. Rather it is
your convoluted idea of what you think Jesus wants you to do that concerns me.

DAVEH: When somebody asks me a question about my beliefs, I feel compelled to answer.
Is that a problem, Dean? Isn't that the purpose of TT? Or....did you think TT is a
place that is only for Christians to convert others to their belief realm?

DAVEH: If you or any other TTers really feel this way, Dean.....simply delete all my

DAVEH: Whether my opinions and beliefs are right or wrong, is it not permissible for
me to express them on TT, Dean? Is this meant to be a one sided forum, or are all
welcome despite their differing perspectives???

DAVEH: Is that a problem for you, Dean? Despite some (well....a lot) feelings of
animosity towards me and my beliefs from some TTers, I do feel comfortable here. That
is not to say I enjoy hearing the way you and a few others speak about me or my
religion, but I think I understand where you are coming from Dean, and I keep that in
mind when you unleash your venom on me. First let me say Dean, I am not offended by
you or other TTers despite your dislike for me. I do not hate or despise you. But
I do find you 'interesting', and perhaps that is one thing that I like about TT. It
gives me (a narrow minded Mormon boy) a chance to rub shoulders with folks who are on
the far end of the spectrum. Where else would I get to 'enjoy' such
exchanges?!?!?!?! Yeah.....I know, I could go to SLC at Conference time, but then I
would only get to talk to you for a few days or so. On TT I get the full treatment
all year long! :-)
Anyway, I'm not sure why my membership in TT bothers you (and perhaps others) so
much. I was invited to TT by DavidM, and I was under the impression that it was
pretty much an open forum that did not try to exclude anybody merely because of his
beliefs. While I didn't expect the red carpet to be laid out for LDS folks, I sure
didn't expect that a lot of TTers would prefer I not be here. If you folks want to
change the nature of TT and make it a closed list for non LDS Christians only, that is
OK with me. I'll pack my bags and leave if so invited. But I've never had the
feeling that I shouldn't be here. (As somebody mused awhile back, perhaps God wants
me here!) I think we can safely say that you aren't God, Dean! <VBG>
But why do you feel you are getting the short end of the stick, Dean? We all play
by the same rules here. You (and others) have tried hard to convert me to your
theological leanings, and I in return have tried my best not to evangelize in TT. As I
understand the rules, it would be OK to do so, but I simply don't feel compelled to do
so. Furthermore, I'm not here to push Mormonism on anybody. I feel it is not my home
field, and I am a guest who should mind my manners. I try to avoid offending,
and do my best to turn the other cheek when necessary.
Yet you seem to think everybody is favoring me, at your expense. May I suggest
that perhaps you are taking TT a bit too seriously, Dean? Can't we both reside here
in peace and brotherly love? That doesn't mean we can't toss a few barbs at each
other occasionally, and perhaps joke around a bit. But do we have to go at each
other's throats until one of us (probably you) gets mad and leaves? Is that what you
really want?
Wouldn't it just be a better forum if you occasionally remind other TTers how evil
I (and other Mormons) are so that none will fall into our traps, and then sit back and
enjoy TT for what it is.....a place where folks of dissimilar beliefs and
backgrounds can relax and chat a bit? Is that a problem for you, Dean? If I can't
persuade you to lighten up a bit, is there anything I can do that would appease you?
And no....I'm not referring to jumping the LDS ship, or leaving TT. But if you would
prefer I simply refrain from posting comments directed at you, I could accommodate you
on that. Or perhaps you have some other ideas??? What say ye, Dean? Can we kiss and
make up?!?!?!?!

DAVEH: Don't flatter yourself, Dean. You 'rejected' yourself, IMO. And, I don't
quite know who you think on TT loves this Mormon boy. I think there are some who
tolerate me, but I doubt I'll be getting many invitations to Christmas dinner! Heck
(hope you don't mind me swearing a bit here)......I can't even count on Brother Glenn
sending me a Christmas card! <VBG>

DAVEH: I suspect the TT door is open to even the devil himself. (Am I wrong about
that, DavidM?) Now don't get me wrong Dean.......I am in no way suggesting that I am
the devil, or even one of his henchmen, despite what many TTers feel about me. Look
at it another way, Dean. What if Jesus himself joined TT. How do you suppose he
would be treated if he used a pen name while posting here?
