However,
my issue with Dave H is much like what others have clearly expressed. Behind
his very nice guy veneer he seems demonically motivated. He claims
to want to learn truth with such sincerity,
DAVEH:
Therein lies the problem, Izzy. I have refuted this assumption many
times before, but it doesn't seem to matter how often I say it, you and
others refuse to believe me. I will say it once more to try to dispel
this myth.....I am not in TT to "learn
truth". I do not
know why you think I said such, as I did not to the best of my memory.
Now I've been accused by DavidM of 'harping' on the reason for my being
here. But in my defense, I have pretty much explained my reason for
being here to clear up these misconceptions that other TTers such as yourself
have about my presense here. For some illogical reason, despite my
saying it to the contrary......a lot of TTers think that I am here for
reasons other than I've stated. Rather than simply accept my stated
reason, I've very curious as to why you and others don't want to put words
in my mouth that I have not spoken? Is it a reflection of Protestantism,
that demands some kind of conformity? Or....is it an expectation
that you have about the TT Forum? Or......are you assuming something
about me because of the way I ask questions? As I've resently mentioned
to DavidM.....this situation perplexes me, and I'm interested in your thoughts
as to why we have this communication breakdown.
but
whenever truth is offered up to him on a silver platter in an irrefutable
manner he changes the subject and asks a question a bit off the mark just
to get out from under the point (which was the truth he pretended to want
to know!) I have watched him do this for YEARS, and it is VERY
PREDICTABLE. This is just like trying to skewer a very wiggly earthworm
on a piece of wet glass with a toothpick. No matter how you poke
the thing it manages to slither out from under your point. I really
dislike slithering....

I
think your harping on being
here
to learn what Protestants believe has misled many as well.

Yes,
this is very true! I have received private emails from people
telling
me that something is spiritually wrong if a Mormon feel
comfortable
to be on the list. They view this as something faulty.
Interestingly,
you seem to be the only Mormon that sticks around about
like
I'm the only Street Preacher who sticks around. LOL. Nevertheless,
I
do think you are onto something here with the idea that your comfort
here
is discomforting to others. Maybe some others on the list would
like
to comment on this idea.
