In any case, I thought I would highlight John&#8217;s interesting post on the topic.  <\/p>\n<p>John writes:  &#8220;Anti\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s force the church to be open, honest, and accurate. Anti\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s help inspire change within the church.  Apologists force the anti\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s to be credible, accurate, and thoughtful. They keep anti\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s on top of their game, so to speak.  In the end, I believe that they are all both fighting for very similar things, and almost united in a common cause.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p>An unorthodox view, to be sure, but not an uninteresting one; John&#8217;s is a post that should be interesting to anyone involved in apologetics.  (However, I have to warn that about one glaring weakness in the post &#8212; John mentions Lou Midgley prominently, but does not elaborate on whether there was fondue.)  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mormon Stories is no longer &#8220;open, honest, respectful&#8221;; however, they are now &#8220;building bridges.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3342","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-corn"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/timesandseasons.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3342","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/timesandseasons.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/timesandseasons.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/timesandseasons.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/timesandseasons.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3342"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/timesandseasons.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3342\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/timesandseasons.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3342"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/timesandseasons.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3342"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/timesandseasons.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3342"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
