Are you saying that Jim's qualifications for independent thought in his brain = your qualifications when it comes to Egyptian?

I'm saying that you people can take the research or leave it and stop being Morons.

Or you could have said, "Read the paper. My extensive research into the Egyptian language is evident therein."

Instead you resorted to name calling - not something one typically does when one has a defensible position.

It's a foreordained conclusion that people constantly harass me on this message board when I post on this subject, and you have no interest in my position apparently.  You can get off the thread, or you can profit from the research with an open mind and give feedback.  I'm serious about what I'm doing.  Are you serious, or are you here to harass?  If you are here to harass, you are not loving your neighbor, and you are of the Spirit of the Devil.  Whatever you say doesn't change what I'm doing.  What do you want?  Go away, or contribute.

Those that know of my seriousness know of my own opinion of my own work, and my own concept of my own extensive research into the Egyptian language.  That goes without saying.  And it doesn't necessitate your harassment.  If you don't share that opinion, then go away.  Thanks.

I can see that you have no respect for what I do, so why should I respect your statements that are meant to harass me?

The initial response to the OP was not truly asked with the purpose of finding out how much I actually know.  It was asked with the intent to put me down as an ad hominem attack on my character and my work.  And therefore, it was a falsely intended statement only meant to put me down, and came from someone without charity for the feelings and hard work of others.

If there were truly a marketplace of ideas in Mormon apologetics, all the ideas would be equally available and given equal treatment.  What we actually have is a bunch of people that think that they can control the narrative and the flow of information by making sure that those that they do not think should have a voice are either put down or silenced in other ways.  There is nobody more unchristian than Mormon Establishment Apologists.  Even the most virulent Anti-Mormons are more Christian and have more Charity.

If I did not already have a strong testimony that is not based on the actions of "apologists," that are supposed "Latter Day Saints."  I would have left the Church a long time ago because of the likes of people like that.
