To bring this back to on-topic, the "World's Leading Bigfoot Authority" is LDS and is featured extensively in this program. Dr. Jeffery Meldrum teaches at Idaho State in Pocatello and has also published Mormon apologetics works as well. Neither topic appears in peer-reviewed journals, doubtless because of some dark and nefarious conspiracy. It's possible these are the same evil-doers hiding all the evidence of ancient seafarers Wayne May and Rodney Meldrum--no relation to Jeffery--have been championing. Unlike Rodney, Jeffery Meldrum belongs to the Mesoamerican/Limited Geography camp as far as BOM locales.

Wow, they're even soliciting donations...

He is The Devil.

Sectarian minister: "What? The Devil?"

Peter: "That is one of his names."

Sectarian minister: "He is quite a different person from what he told me the devil is. He said the devil has claws like a b'ar's on his hands, horns on his head, and a cloven foot, and that when he speaks he has the roar of a lion."

Peter: "He has said this to deceive you, and I would advise you to get out of his employ."

God, I really miss the old endowment ceremony.

It would be great if a Bigfoot who billed himself as "World's Leading Mormon Authority" squared off against Brother Meldrum in a debate.

Too bad the Neanderthals ain't around any more. A Neanderthal would make an impartial moderator. Maybe my ex's divorce lawyer could do it--he's pretty close to Neanderthal.

As in Saul Alinsky... Here's the story behind that one (and a honk of my horn to Newt Gingrich for introducing me to his work).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saul_Alinsky

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rules_for_Radicals

(Note to ADMIN: Alinksy was referring to political/cultural activism in general, but his tactics are applicable to what we face from the LDS Church, and they are offered within that limited scope; politics is simply tangential, and IRL, I'm probably a tad more conservative than he was)

>“Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.

BTW, Alinsky didn't originate that tactic; neither did Mark Twain, one of my own personal heroes. On the history front, I also recall reading Henry Fielding's "skewering" of Sir Robert Walpole in the first part of the 18th Century.

Smithsonian has some quality programming, although I haven't watched the Bigfoot program - yet.

Since Ziller has managed to capture the essence of Bigfoot, what's not to believe?

;))

Cabbie,

If you are bored, why not assemble the history of DNA denial in the Mormon church?

It would be nice to have it all in one place like the CES letter, so everyone can have permanent access.

Now that DNA is used as evidence strong enough to free a person from death row, shouldn't there be a new wave of discussion for the incoming BYU freshmen?


Kathleen

PS. Don't forget the comments of the satellite apostles after the Great Waffler insisted DNA was unproven science.

I'm a little sad you were indisposed during the after hours socializing at the Exmormon Conference, but Tiptoes and I had a wonderful time catching up (like Timothy above, she doesn't make it around here much these days; her family is really demanding).

On the DNA issue, as far as I'm concerned, it's "Simon says":

As in "Simon says the LDS Church is a crock."

I'll drop you a little e-mail on some IRL stuff I don't want the Internet Danites catching wind of...
