    Friends of JD on FB were treated yesterday to a barrage of quotes from attendees at some gathering in Texas. The quotes included many observations about the Church that did not reflect well on the writer or JD (and I'm totally fine with intelligent criticism). So I finally pulled the trigger and unfriended him. His obsession with the Church became uninteresting to me a while ago and now borders on the pathological.
    I was never his friend, so I guess I was spared this delightful barrage.

    Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

      He and the Mrs. seem very happy these days.

      There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

        For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

        Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

          • Let's finally put an end to the JD myth that Jews get along swimmingly despite differing levels of religiousity.

            I’m an American rabbi. Israel no longer recognizes my religious authority.

              Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

                Is he really that clueless?

                  • That is really funny. No surprise at all that he struggles with self awareness.

                      URGENT! Super bad news. Just heard from Steve Urquhart that a member of the legislature called to tell him that the LDS Church is pressuring the Utah legislature to pass a bill to make Utah a 2-party consent audio/video recording state - in direct response to Mormon Stories Podcast, MormonLeaks (Ryan McKnight), Jeremy Runnells, Sam Young and others.

                      This will make it impossible to record Mormon bishop and stake president interviews, Mormon GA's, etc., to hold them accountable for the things they say and do.

                      But even more alarming/disturbing, I am told by a friend connected to the judicial system this law could make it more difficult to protect victims of sexual assault in the state by effectively getting rid of the number one tool for prosecuting date rape and other sexual assaults where the only two witnesses are the victim and perpetrator. I know that there are exemptions addressing this situation, but I’m concerned about the chilling effect that this law might bring.

                      No bueno.

                      Anyone have ideas on what, if anything, can be done?

                              • I think it would be a good idea to have Utah be a two party recording state. I stand with the LDS church (on two party recording).
