How Travis Morgan Has Completely Discredited Himself

    I will here catalogue the proof demonstrating the gross dishonesty and deception on the part of one anti-Saint, Travis Morgan. After this exchange was first brought to light on Facebook, Travis opted to start creating multiple new profiles under pseudonyms both there and on YouTube in an effort to hide behind anonymity (but has shown himself not to be creative enough to conceal this very well). This posting serves the dual purpose of discrediting Mr. Morgan as an objective or reliable source of information in future encounters, while simultaneously serving as one of many witnesses to the spirit of animosity and bigotry common to both the ancient pagan critics of the early Christians and their modern counterparts who bring the same spirit against the restored Church of Jesus Christ on a level which none of the other churches I've fellowshipped with have ever come remotely close to drawing from what critics they may have had.

    Some background: Travis Morgan attempted to appeal to the 'Declaration of Faith' pseudepigraphally attributed to Gregory Thaumaturgus in an effort to prove that the post-Constantinoplian/Pseudo-Athanasian model of the Trinity was taught in the pre-Nicene period, not knowing that modern patristic scholars have rejected the writing in question as the spurious product of a much later writer. This exchange then transpired:









    Never mind that Morgan is oblivious to the fact that Gregory of Nyssa hadn't even been born until a decade after the Council, note instead that he here nonsensically called me a liar. A year or so later I referenced this exchange on the LDS vs. The Real World page on Facebook, to which he responded, "I'll take things that never happened for $500, Alex." He deleted said post, to which only this response is now extant:


    Not long after, however, Morgan was again caught in his lie in another Facebook group when I called him out on the matter:
