It was fun to see posts by Truth Dancer, Gazelem, and others who have been translated into that fabled land of non-posting. I miss them.

Paul as Shulem has certainly taken a different approach with his Book of Abraham passion.

At some point, this board needs some sort of reunion/meet up. It does suck to see so many names not posting. This board will always be the real grounds of open Mormon talk. Reddit is pretty lame. Here, we got to watch apologists battle with Kish, The Dude, Runtu, Shades, Scratch, I can't name them all. This site is the best.

That sounds like a good analogy. Living a life of Mormonism was drudgery and following all the silly rules they dictate was like junior high school. Now it's happiness and freedom living a life without Mormonism.

Woo hoo, I'm free! I can sip coffee and pour myself a drink without any guilt. Guilt is a thing of the past. Guilt is how Mormons live and they are constantly having to get rid of their guilt by relying on a make-believe Jesus in order to get forgiven.

Good riddance Jesus! Good riddance Mormonism and all the guilt it causes. All I ever wanted was a beer and a sip of coffee! All I ever wanted was to sin!

Sinning is wonderful and marvelous! Such joy!

I wholeheartedly concur. :-)

Who remembers the late night chat sessions? That was fun.

I have really, really, learned to appreciate and love Paul Osborne. He's an amazing guy!

People, he really is a good guy in real life. He's a wonderful guy and you'd really enjoy being around him. Paul is a sweet and kind person in real life. His Internet personality is a bit of an act and is a way for him to explore his personality and express his opinions and assert his ideas.

I arrived on this site with the same Mormon zeal.
I arrived on this site with a Mormon seal. He liked to toot his own horn.

Paul has gone through many changes. I have always wished him the best whether as a wild-eyed Book of Abraham apologist or as a wild-eyed critic. Three cheers for Shulem! I'm positive his debate partners at Beliefnet felt the same way.

Awesome. Simply awesome. I have a sibling who desperately needs to have someone tell him that. Maybe it will be me, now that I have such stunning material on which to draw.

I am so glad you can love and appreciate your best self. It’s a tough journey out, isn’t it?

I knew I always loved you, and now I know a little more why. Thank you, my friend.
