I've written twice now asking about why the threads are getting deleted, and haven't heard back at all. I couldn't find a phone number. It is supposed to take 7 days before they read what you write. I first wrote them after it got deleted the first time, which has been over a week ago.

Supposedly only Topix employees can delete stuff on the forums.
Let them keep deleting it. There will always be someone to reopen it. No one is scared of Danny anymore.

Danny needs to realize that his influence on most people is gone.  Notice I say "most" because obviously some people are still blindsided by the man.  The power of Danny and his regime has become extinct.

With most people gone, How does he financially keep going? It seems still the "pew money" must be still coming in. Maybe if that comes to halt the so claimed "volunteers" will be gone. I realize now they were never "volunteers" for DS. I think most of us "oldies" don't have ways of finding out the 3abn saga unless they have computer interests. Most I talk to around here do not even have computers let alone know how to get in the posts. They know nothing of this and are contributors. That is just my scenairo of how I think it must be. The "oldies" are the contributors and this is I think what DS counts on, or the board, or the SDA church in their "double back interests of claiming no interests". Very upset with this connection.

While studying for the ministry I worked for a while at a psychiatric hospital. Some of the patients were former celebrities who had tried to make a comeback depending on former success, but failed. Then there was no other place for them than at such a hospital. This is tragic but something that often happens.

To be honest I do believe that 3ABN has lost a lot of financial support in recent years.  I do not think that is going to improve anytime soon, especially when you have DS at the helm.

Not to mention the fact that the preliminary hearing takes place in a little over 2 weeks, which is going to put all this right back in the news again.

In which part of the country would you say this is true, ST?

I am not sure, I understand your question, so before I try to answer that can you clarify? Thank you.

Being that Danny is acknowledged as founder of 3ABN by the president and Mollie, many Adventists haven't heard/don't believe the reports about him, and Adventist church leadership personnel support 3ABN by their presence on the network, I don't see how it can be said that his power has become extinct.

I have witnessed otherwise very recently in a city-wide Adventist event for the local churches, reported on favorably in a church division paper.

While I will respectfully disagree. I will state this.   I am simply stating that in my opinion DS, as well as TS, realize the jig is up and there is no where left to hide.  DS has always found away to get (himself and his family) out of things, but I think he realizes that in this case that is not likely.

As far as the support for Danny Shelton, that may be so.  I believe that will change in the near future after they (3ABN supporters) find out the extent of DS trying to cover up his brother who is an alleged pedophile.

What exactly is it that you don't agree with?

I may also note:  That Danny is also not as popular in his hometown anymore either.  The fact remains is people are coming to know the true Sheltons.

I'm not sure about that since the Adventist church appears to be staying with the status quo as far as 3ABN is concerned, and the culture within 3ABN seems to me to be a cover-up one to begin with.

3ABN attorney Greg Simpson just filed a motion on April 7 to strike our status report in the First Circuit, which had the five felony arrest warrants for Tommy Shelton attached.

Simpson has repeatedly tried to bury the evidence against Tommy, starting as early as October 30, 2008. April 7 was his latest attempt.

  • Does Jim Gilley approve of Simpson still trying to hide the pedophilia allegations against Tommy Shelton?
  • Does Ken Denslow approve of Simpson still trying to hide the pedophilia allegations against Tommy Shelton?
  • Does Ellsworth McKee approve of Simpson still trying to hide the pedophilia allegations against Tommy Shelton?
  • Does Carmelita Troy approve of Simpson still trying to hide the pedophilia allegations against Tommy Shelton?
  • Does Wintley Phipps approve of Simpson still trying to hide the pedophilia allegations against Tommy Shelton?

Or is Simpson out of control, doing things the 3ABN Board hasn't approved of and doesn't want?

Or is Danny pulling all the strings attached to Simpson, not 3ABN?

I think these questions need to be answered by the individuals concerned. It's time for each of them to come out of the shadows and let it be fully understood just where they stand on the issue of pedophilia, and whether they approve of Simpson's continued efforts to sweep everything under the rug.

Anymore? Truth be known, he never was all that popular, just tolerated. That tolerance is wearing very thin these days.
