Prudence McPrude, a.k.a Aaron Brown

August 10, 2005

In this light summer vacation season let’s have some fun in honor of Prudence McPrude….

Steve EM

ADMIN says: This thread was originally posted by Steve EM to have some light-hearted, and light-minded, fun with an anonymous persona named “Prudence McPrudie”. Steve invited Prudence to make sport of him in a round of limericks. Prudence initially turned her nose up at his request, but a short while later responded by casting aspersions at Steve’s Mother, which in almost any circle is considered to be innapropriate. Steve’s reponse was predictably profane. The result was a mess.

The Admin has taken it upon himself to clean out this thread, and leave only the skeletal remains sufficient to expose the subtance of the conflict and Aaron Brown’s caddish behavior.

When this brouhaha started, I told people to relax, but as it developed Aaron’s behavior became grossly offensive, and he even resorted to lying to save face. Thats simply rediculous. People are taking this whole bloggernacle thing way too seriously, and this whole episode should serve as a warning to people of good character to not act duplicitously and/or in a reactionary or offensive manner. The ends never justify the means. What you write is a reflection of yourself.

Can Reform Mormonism Work?

Can Reform Mormonism work?

It strikes me that many bloggernacklers and other Mormons who crave open discourse on the Internet are really Reform Mormons or even New Order Mormons (although NOMs strike me more as jackmormons, inactive or afraid to leave for various reasons).

There are so many posts on various blogs these days on why church is boring, uninspiring, too long, too restrictive, etc.

Do you ever see a day when Reform Mormonism will be a bigger draw than the institutional church? Why, or why not?

Eternal Polygamy?

Jenson says:

Do you think that the polygamy practice will be something that is real in heaven? Many LDS members are at different poles when asked this question? Many women on blog sites don’t think it will be something that they will have to be involved with. Opinions?
