I am thrilled to see that Anthony has started to blog again. His new blog on Nephite parallels is great.

I was very disappointed when He kind of lost hope and withdrew because the material was not getting the attention he felt it deserved. I can understand that frustration from someone who has devoted so much time and effort to truths that seem to be hidden in plain site. However there is a danger in that IMO.
Anthony so badly wanted his research to become mainstream and have an impact on the way LDS looked at the gospel. Because it did not catch on he seemed to lose hope and kind of decided to take his ball and go home. I may be to critical here on him for doing so and if so I apologise. I just think that if we have truth to share it should not matter whether or not we gain recognition or the praise of men. We should just continue to share these truths we have found regardless of the amount of recognition we might get from it. If even just a few people are effected by what truths are revealed that should be payment enough.
On his forum he had many who learned these wonderful insights but at times became critical of membership at large because they did not seem to appreciate what these truths could do for their gospel understanding. This can become very relevent in a forum like this one as well where secret combinations are discussed and understandings or lack thereof from other members are lamented.That is another adversarial trap to get us thinking that we have elevated ourselves above others and the pride thing starts to kick into high gear.
We can become a bit like the Zoramites looking down our noses at the masses pitying them and thinking that they are just not as smart as we are. It is always a challenge when greater light and knowledge comes to us. I have seen many a Saint who succumbed to prideful comparisons with other Saints because they gained greater light than did some others. It is always a danger where charity must prevail.
Enough of my blabbering. If I have been to hard on Anthony I once again apologise. I have been grateful for the research he put into all this and wish him only the best.
