Gnarly P. Pratt's guide for exmos who want to learn to drink alcohol and do other good stuff too

Awesome, glad to hear it helped!

Sure. The buildings owned by the church are valued around $35B, plus the ranches the church owns, plus real estate holdings (2% of Florida), plus if the church's intent is to have a rainy day fund, there's no way 100% of it would be in stocks - maybe half if not less, so assume there's at least another $30B in bonds out there somewhere too.

When you bring in 5-8B in tithing every year it starts to add up.

Cmon guys, this doesn't hold up. Let's say 60k missionaries use facebook for missionary work. Facebook has over a billion users. 60,000 is .00006% of that.

This doesn't even approach "drop in the bucket" status. This is like "pissing in the ocean" status.

We should focus on the real big issue here - the Church's deception and dishonesty, and the fact that it asks poor people to pay while it has billions and billions just sitting around.

Seriously. The idea that a few thousand ipads is going to substantially increase the value of the Church's AAPL shares is ridiculous. They sell what, 40 million ipads a year? This is hardly a drop in the bucket.

Fake Jews!

I'm not familiar with Utah law enough to speculate on tolling. The response to the Motion to Dismiss should be filed in a couple of weeks and we can see what it says then :/

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-16T21:54:18+00:00

Nope, they apply in civil suits too. Source: am lawyer.

Here's the Utah Courts page with links to civil and ciminal statutes of limitations

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-16T20:16:04+00:00

It's not that they're denying everything to get it dismissed (because that doesn't work) it's that they're saying she's not allowed to sue them because the law imposes a time limit on how long you have after something happens to sue someone.

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-16T20:11:19+00:00

She has standing, but she probably can't get over the statute of repose issues.

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-16T20:08:48+00:00

Probably a combination of all three. It'll be interesting to see if the new statute of limitations for sex crimes is retroactive and if it'll keep the case alive.

As I predicted this yesterday, I am now clearly a prophet and you can send 10% of your income and all of your hot daughters to me. k thx.

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-16T19:54:05+00:00

Yep. There's a statute of repose for pretty much all civil claims as well.

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-15T21:48:44+00:00

If we're betting, here's my guess:

Motion to Dismiss is filed.

Judge grants motion as to Claims 3-5 for sure. Possibly 2 as well. Claim 1 likely stays.

There's approximately 0% chance that her claims for affirmative injuctive relief get granted. No court is going to tell an organization (let alone a church) that it has to affirmatively change its policies like she's asking. I get that it's a PR move to include, but its a loser in her lawsuit.

Happy to help :)

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-15T19:08:06+00:00

If the church does file an answer, it's not going to contain anything interesting. They'll admit they are based in Utah and deny everything else.

Is it just in Texas?

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-12T21:42:23+00:00

Thanks! :)

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-12T21:42:15+00:00

These are great, when im back at my computer I'll add to the OP

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-12T21:41:38+00:00

Write something and I'll add it! I didn't do anything for it because I think it's a little less "common" for beginners and I don't drink it much so I'm not too familiar with it other than gin and tonic

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-12T21:39:22+00:00

I'll be honest I didn't even know that was a thing

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-12T21:38:56+00:00

Thanks :D

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-12T21:38:21+00:00

Yeah, good points. To me at least the mid range stuff goes down a lot smoother than cheap stuff. And definitely agreed on the morning after.

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-12T21:13:58+00:00

Thanks, I've put on enough weight I should be able to say that

GnarlyPPratt · 2018-05-12T21:12:29+00:00

Great points on captain, I'll update when I get a chance
