Wow.

Seeking vengeance against all those who have demeaned and belittled me all my wretched and forlorn life, I strike out at them in blind, irrational fury with today's Deseret News column, which I myself call "Sarah's Story":

What a powerful account. Thanks! :)

In this column (which, I suppose, might have been entitled "My Name is Legion"), I attempt to lure others over to the dark side, to enlist them in my shameless campaign against truth, justice, and the American way:

Mormon Voices has been around for a while now. Has anyone heard whether there has been a backlash against it? It has been my impression that the Church's critics, by and large, don't like being contradicted.

I just posted it on the Walter Martin board, so we'll see how that goes. :)

Yeah, they have a discussion going on, over there, about so-called "magic underwear", which Mormon Voices discusses, as one of the most common misrepresentations put out by critics. I thought, it might be helpful to observers/lurkers, if not those critics in the discussion.

by contrast, the Church's supporters absolutely love being contradicted.

Yet another column in which, driven by my decades-long resentment at the many humiliations I've suffered throughout my pathetic-loser life, I lash out at anti-Mormons, non-Mormons, inactive Mormons, doubting Mormons, liberal Mormons, "chapel" Mormons, blue-eyed Mormons, guitar-playing Mormons, and puppies belonging to Mormons:

I raise rabbits. Would you write an article where you lash out at rabbits belonging to "Mormons", too? I don't want my bunnies feeling left out.

Dr. Peterson has a way of raising our expectations... and then dashing them. (It probably gets even the critics to read his columns :D)

Just goes to prove that I'm a liar, exactly as my Malevolent Stalker says.

But enough of last week's abomination.

With characteristically cruel arrogance, in today's criminal rant for the Deseret News I verbally assault those who dare to think for themselves, while -- and this may hit a new low even for me -- callously mocking victims of human tragedies and natural disasters:

I'm offended by your characterization of Denver as a relatively modern city. It is no such thing. :)

The adverb'relatively' modifies the adjective"large' primarily.( please refrain from thumping the messenger :nea: )

The Book of Mormon is not really easy to explain...

That's kind of his point. To a committed non-believer, the Book of Mormon is apparently impossible to explain.
