Today’s Sermon: Projection, Hypocrisy, and Hulkamania
July 24, 2025It starts with a question:
“Have you been invited to a smear campaign by a V-NPD with my name?”
That’s how Tori Stocks Stephens opens her most recent post—an exasperated, cutting reminder that not all silence is peace, and not all truths are public. What follows isn’t just a personal account. It’s a chilling checklist of classic narcissistic behavior: projection, obsession, harassment, refusal to accept rejection, and the dangerous use of “God’s truth” as a mask for control.
Nearly two years post-divorce, and Mark Anthony Stephens is still trying to rewrite the story. Not move on. Not co-parent. Not apologize or rebuild. But reframe—and reframe viciously.



Let’s be clear: there are now four Restraining/No Contact Orders against him. One became unenforceable only because the victim aged out of its legal protection. It’s like watching a vampire wait at the threshold, counting down the years until the door is unguarded again.
And what does Mark do with that freedom?
He stalks online.
He calls friends and family.
He manipulates his own son into signing a contract that denied a life-threatening diagnosis.
He accuses doctors of fabricating eating disorders for profit.
He spreads false teachings dressed in scripture and venom.
And now, he’s launched yet another smear campaign, aimed at discrediting the very people trying to protect the children he abandoned, manipulated, or both.
Tori’s post lays it out:
- Blames others, refuses accountability.
- Lives in cycles of revenge and retribution.
- Uses humiliation and shame to silence dissent.
- Collects private information for future control.
- Weaponizes secrets and spirituality.
It’s a psychological war zone masked as righteousness.
“Protecting their Image: Narcissists have fragile egos and go to great lengths to maintain a positive self-image… portraying themselves as the victim while casting their ex-partner in a negative light.”
In public, Mark is the spiritual warrior. In private, he’s an unrepentant saboteur—mocking children, derailing medical treatment, and using fear and misinformation to regain control.
According to Dr. Rao, Liam’s psychiatrist at Kartini Clinic, Mark is directly responsible for undermining his son’s progress and mental health. Liam vomited within three hours of being back at his father’s house. And yet, Mark refused to acknowledge the diagnosis, going so far as to call the disorder “invented.” All while posting about “truth,” “healing,” and “fatherhood.”
Meanwhile, Rob Peters recalls a moment of public embarrassment at a youth sports event—Mark laughing while his guest shouted obscenities, filmed chaos, and drove families to tears. That’s not fatherhood. That’s theatrical dominance disguised as parenting.
So what now?
Tori says it best:
“Are you kind enough to report it as harassment for us sisterfriend?”
This blog has grown repetitive for one reason: Mark’s behavior is repetitive. His manipulation is cyclical. The posts don’t change because the playbook doesn’t change.
But what is changing is the willingness to stay silent.
Melissa is no longer silent.
Tori is no longer silent.
Liam, Nathan, Rob, Dr. Rao—they’re all voices refusing to be erased.
This blog, this documentation, is not for revenge. It’s for record.
Because no matter how often Mark tries to shift the story, the truth is timestamped.
