Re: Mormons Against Trump
I know off topic... But, what is a proud Mormon but doesn't affiliate with the LDS mean? The simplest explanation is that Mormon is my identity, not my ecclesiastical affiliation. Bonus points for Mormon being your identity as opposed to Latter-Day Saint. Being raised Mormon certainly made a huge i...

Re: Want to throw up!
Sorry Markk, I'll have to let others take this one. One of the great things about not being an active member is that I never have to listen to conference again. I might listen to a snippet here and there to follow a discussion, but I will unlikely ever listen to an entire talk again. Few things in ...

Re: The Top Ten Happenings in Mopologetics, 2023
Lying for the Lord indeed. DCP never had much credibility with me anyway, but those events with 'Peter Pan' left me shaking my head; does the man have no shame?

Re: Nelson
I broke the law of chastity many times growing up in the church. I felt so guilty and ashamed of myself during many impressionable teenage years. Looking back it now, I just chuckle at how much my life got "messed up." Tragedy (or events, if you're unattached to permanence) happens to everyone if yo...

Re: Mormonism and Human History
In my former Mormon worldview, the dating was simply wrong. Scientists only believed they were dating these objects and ancient civilizations correctly.
In other words, willful ignorance.

Re: Meeting Kishkumen
I think that’s true of the majority of people here. The Internet puts us in a box, like a car in traffic; many don’t think twice of cutting someone off in traffic while in their box but would never do it if they were standing right next to the person. Or maybe we just wear masks in person and our tr...

Re: Meeting Kishkumen
In an alternate reality it would be so fun to meet all the distinguished posters that I’ve long ago associated avatar pics with real life appearances. Alas, time, distance, circumstances proves this nearly impossible.
Perhaps in Hell.

With his commission still being to stop uncontested slam dunks, there is no room for apologies.

Re: Limiting member study on the D&C
D&C 124:59-74... That's the first time I've read that many verses of scriptures together, in one setting, in probably 10 years or more. Those were inspiring words. God had big plans for that house for Joseph and his seed to live there forever and ever. Until they abandoned the building of it. You'd ...
