I don't see why taking jabs at Will should be considered evidence that the two are related. But even if Will was squashed because of what MsJack compiled, it was still only a collection of Will's words. If he lost out publishing due to the compilation it was because of what he said not because someone pointed it out.

Four years old. We just adopted him in March. He sometimes refuses to get off the bed when I am making it, so I make it over the top of him.

Lol. Does he just sit there, or move? My cat can't stand having a blanked on top of her most of the time (that's not my cat in the picture btw - my cat is a gray tabby)

I'll be trying to make the bed and he'll just lay there defiantly like, "You think I'm moving for that? Think again!" So I just toss the sheets and blanket over the top of him. And he seems to like it because he tends to stay under them.

Funny story: I was staying as a guest in someone's home once, and this woman had the most skiddish cat I had ever met. Like, I only saw this cat 3-4 times in the entire month we stayed there, it was so good at staying out of sight. One day I was looking for my daughter's purple Teletubby plush toy, and I saw a lump under the covers of the bed in one of the guest rooms. I thought, "Oh, my daughter must have been playing in there, and that's her Teletubby under the covers." I moved over to the bed and touched the bump.

That bump shot across the bed like lightning. I screamed. And for just a fraction of a second, my terrified brain decided that my daughter's Teletubby had come alive.

Then I realized it was the stupid cat.

Let's see just how principled Ms. Jack really is.

Darth J:

He's kind of teasing you, Ray. Are you really upset by this?

Since it was Darth J, his board arch-nemesis, who did this, you'd better believe he is upset.

OK. So it appears that MsJack got it about right:

The problem, in Ray's view, is that Jack is not devoting a thread to decrying the evils of Darth J to get him punted from the Institute for Advanced Anti-Mormon Criticisms, for which he was preparing a manuscript. You know, since these situations are perfectly parallel in every way.

I don't approve of Darth J calling Ray's daughters "crack whores." I recognize that it was a tongue-in-cheek gesture meant to prove a point: that Ray A believes the women in his own life are worth defending and speaking up for, but women like Emma Smith and the female members of this forum aren't. And he proved that point. I still don't think that he should have done it. If it really bothers Ray, he should use his report button and have it removed, since attacking family members of participants is against the rules of the forum.

I won't be doing a "Criticism of Mormon Apologetics & Misogyny: The Case of Darth J" thread because I haven't seen repeated and consistent misogyny from Darth J, plus Darth J isn't planning on publishing in any academic journals anytime soon.

I see that Ray has taken umbrage at a vulgar, sexualized comment about his daughters. This must mean that:

1. Ray is assassinating my character; or
2. Ray is simply furthering his agenda; or
3. Ray is terrified that my compelling theories will see the light of day; or
4. Ray hates everyone who shares any common beliefs with me; or
5. All of the above.

Oh, and I've also re-read what I said, and I am confident that no objective, reasonable person would find it offensive to refer to a female as a crack whore.

Don't worry, I don't think you called anyone a crack whore. I'm pretty sure one of the moderators here edited your post to make it look like you called someone a crack whore.

Which of the Mod Squad has such a diabolical mind?

Plus it's only like .001% of all his posts, so he has a pretty good track record.
