The Best of the 2010s: A Mopologetic Decade in Review

[_Lemmie]

Rosebud, do you have permission of the parties involved to post these private correspondences?

Of course not. That's a dumb question.

This is much bigger than me, and it is far far far bigger than you. You lack a great deal of perspective.

Leave me alone, Lemmie.

Wow.

Interesting way of telling another person they have a very small mind and that you're much smarter.

Jesus Christ, Rosy.

I’ve been far more patient with Lemmie than she has ever deserved. Don’t call me Rosy.

And leave me alone, too.

Dr. Scratch,

I’m hoping you’ll post a separate thread and help unpack all of these huge bombshells:

But the clincher was your phone call. It followed the path that I suggested it would, with the addition of an unnamed member of the Twelve (I'm guessing Elder Holland) added in. Jenson called him, he called Samuelson, and Samuelson called Jerry, who was ready for the call because of the discussions we've been having, and asked for something in writing, which we now have. Sorry I can't share that document, but it is an outstanding piece of counsel that has come to us from Pres. Samuelson—one that I really see as potentially not only bringing a resolution to this immediate crisis, but also moving us toward that larger goal of some serious internal reflection and long-term change here.

The editors could still choose to take their article (100 MS pages) to non-BYU affiliated venues like their personal blogs, or FAIR, I suppose, but given the strength of this signal from The Powers That Be, I expect they they will think better.

Be watching your seismograph Monday morning when Jerry meets with Dan and Louis. There could still be additional drama, but thank you for what you have done to help me/us improve this little corner of Mormondom. I still dream that it might become relevant in the Mormon conversation again someday. We have a lot of repenting and work to do first, but I have a little more hope today.

Holy cow!!!!

Okay, I'll leave you alone, baby, but I can call you ROSY if I want to.

So there!

ROSY has a little problem with reality, Shulem baby.

(Not to mention the Universal Rules of the Board. Ahem.)
