Yes, you did you filthy, despicable LIAR. The fact that you can’t own up to your misdeeds is just what I’d expect from a loathesome, shit-for-brains liar like you. You are beneath contempt.

Sorry, but there’s no award for stupidity.

OK, the 2 of you posted a minute apart…I guess that’s close enough. you could theoretically log off & log back on with another username in that amount of time (or have 2 PCs on a LAN), but to log off, refresh your IP address & log back on with another username, that would take more than one minute. I retract my insinuation that you are the same person.

jack@ass poses the following:

I’m just wondering…why is it that when Sheerdee is accused of being your sock puppet, you come back to the discussion? It’s kinda like never seeing Superman and Clark Kent in the same room at the same time…

Well, jack@ass, is the concept of multiple posters posting simultaneously beyond your grasp? Don’t look now, honey, you might be accused of being me! Ha!

Clearly, you suffer not only from severe reading and comprehension disabilities, you have a terminal case of lying through your teeth. You can’t read but I’m taking the heat for _your_ ignorance and addiction to deception.

I’d advise you to re-read my OP but clearly you’re too stupid to be able to distinguish what I actually said from your own childish exaggerations. Here, again, is your LIE: “You falsely stated that the purpose of the temple recommend interview was for the purpose of gratification.”

That is a deliberate, mean-spirited, hate-fueled LIE.

(I don’t think we’re supposed to be making comments or accusations about sock puppets here. I know I expressed my suspicions—sort of—but I shouldn’t have. Let’s take it to the mods.)

Excepting, of course, for the minor fact of it not being a lie as it actually does accurate portray the venom you spewed.

BTW, don’t stop the rainbow effect on my account. Apparently you’ve a fan or two of your art.

Very well. yosemitebabe, I apologize. I could have put your support for what experts say is psychologically and phyically harmful punishment for perfectly normal and natural behavior in more acceptable terms. I regret my failure to do so.

However, Dup, you misread my comments and did not accurately represent them here, **so you owe me an apology**. If you check your facts, you’ll see that I always said “LEGAL child abuse”, i.e., child abuse by the legal system. Which is just what it is. See the data I provided in that thread.

I rarely (if ever) complain about how people spell my username, but Sheerdee Light, could you manage to spell out my entire name?

If you don’t want to, that’s fine. I’ll just start calling you She Li, since I see no reason why you’d mind. (And actually, it _does_ sort of have a ring to it, doesn’t it?) 😉

Yeah, yeah, I’ll suppose I can accept that apology with the same half-hearted, somewhat begrudging spirit in which it was given.

Ask the mods. You’re speculating out of your ass.

I don’t think I’d ever even _heard_ the expression “sock puppet” before, but it’s a good one. I deny it, but you or some other sick fuck will probably take that as a guilty plea.

Again, ask the mods.

Unlike Monty and SPOOFE, I’m telling the truth. Telling the truth is power enough and doesn’t require “sock puppets”. I leave just such juvenile behavior to the gang-bangers and other loathesome assholes who write things like SPOOFE did: “In short, you are full of shit, you are a liar, you are a loud, obnoxious, psychopathic, irrational, delusional nut. You’re playing poker with 51 cards, you’ve misplaced your marbles, you’ve taken a flight right above the cuckoo’s nest, you need to tighten your screws, and many other metaphors to point out just how pathetic a grip on reality you have.”

And some of you idiots are all over MY ass for abusive language! You gang-bangers are simply afraid of him.

Typical.

Maybe I hate liars, or maybe I’m trolling to see just how cretinous and hateful these Pit yahoos are…

If I said, for example, that there’s variation from gym teacher to gym teacher, but often male gym teachers ogle high-school girls, I might be talking out my ass – but that’s not at all the same as saying that the purpose of high-school gym class is to let adult men ogle high-school girls. **Monty** was, to be charitable, engaging in hyperbole.

I don’t recall any run-ins with anyone about Mormonism here, but I’ve been here a long time, so I don’t know for sure. I tend to doubt it, though.

It’s so refreshing when a poster like you actually shows such clear respect for intellectual integrity. At least in here, you’re part of a very small and elite group. Thanks.

You know what? I agree. That could be exactly what he meant.

And if he said that, or maybe “I was using hyperbole” or “I think you misread that” or “what I meant there was _this_” or anything like that, I would have said “OK then”. Because, really, I could give a shit what anyone’s views on any given church are. I got no horse in that race.

BUT, he came back with "LIAR!!! I did not write that. EVER!!! Truth-evader!!! Ja’ Accuse!!! and on and on and on, ad nauseum…showing himself to be the asshole **Monty** claims he is.

You know that **if** it seemed to you that his insinuation was that it was a general practice, he’d be calling you a liar too. Not that you were of a different and ill-informed opinion, but a wretched liar. You see what I’m getting at?

No, you don’t owe any “loon” an apology. You owe ME an apology.

Can’t leave out the “stinking teeth” part.
