Re: Best online posts / debates in LDS apologetics?
Hi Stock,
M#9 asked a similar question recently, here:
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=51776
But your question including single posts is intriguing. Some of the threads I think back on fondly probably wouldn't be on anyone elses list. And I think many of my favorite posts wouldn't even be recalled by others. I suppose the threads pinned by Shades are good starting places, though.
I'd be curious what posts or threads others are proud of most? Or recall the most fondly? If asked, and being a bit of a dork, I'm most fond of some very unsubstantial posts. For example, viewtopic.php?f=1&t=37174&view=next
Or

The ones I recall most fondly are the fictional series by Bob Bobberson starting with this one:

While not a point by point confrontation with apologetics, I found the stories most enlightening. I would highly recommend the first story, The Annals of the Turley J. Hinton Institute to all who have not read it yet.
The point by point confrontational stories I remember most vividly have been ones started by Dr. Scratch.
I got a big kick out of this apologetic definitions thread by Symmachus from 2016:
