The Smackdown in Utah, or as The Ironic Priesthood has 
titled it, A couple of weeks of civil bloggernacle discourse.
Here are some snippets, but for true theological scholars, nothing but the original text will suffice, of course. Pity it’s not written in Moroni‘s language.
John W. Redelfs wrote: How dare you malign Midgley? Don’t you understand that he is seeking to restore faith in the Lord’s one true church? What are you, apostate or, even worse, a Sunstone subscriber? I’m telling!

Louis Midgley wrote: You are right, Roasted. I messed up with some of the Pry stuff. Also, I think that you display an unfortunate credulity when addressing Palmer’s Pry explanation. More importantly, you are obviously an apostate.
SerenityValley wrote: Hey, I know apostates, I’ve worked with apostates, and my husband, sir, is no apostate.
Daniel Peterson wrote: Hi, I’m the Zodiac Killer. Why won’t people ever listen to my arguments, instead always focusing on the blood on my hands? WWWWHHHHHYYYY?

Clark Goble wrote: I think maybe we’re painting with too broad a brush. Ad Hominem isn’t always inappropriate. Humor and Satire can also be appropriate. That said, both can be abused. What do you think we could do to make sure our discourse is uplifting?

John Fowles wrote: Are you all mad? Don’t you know that Nibley entered this life fully formed, emerging from a blooming lotus blossom on a still pool? Don’t you know John Gee descended to earth directly from heaven? Don’t you know that Richard Anderson didn’t die, but rather rode a chariot of fire into the sky? that Jack Welch is my father-in-law? that Daniel Peterson is Bel-Shamharoth, the Soul Eater? (Seriously, don’t cross that guy) They would never, ever, ever, ever, eva, sink to the level of anti-Mormons in terms of writing hateful prose and snarky asides, nuh uh. Matt Elggren, apologetics isn’t what you say it is.
Word!
Stupido here is possibly the world’s dumbest crook. Along with a gang of pals, he posed as a member of a Portugese camera crew, and helped out a team filming in Hong Kong. They worked steadily, and apparently professionally, as a camera crew for two full days before pulling a disappearing act with all the gear that belonged to the independent television company they’d been assisting.
