Re: The Biblical prophets were Mormons

McConkie: Thus all of the ancient saints—all those from Adam to Noah, and from Noah to Abraham, and from Abraham to Moses, and from Moses to the coming of Jesus in the flesh—all of the truly faithful ones of old had the gospel. They were baptized and received the gift of the Holy Ghost; they were e...

Re: RFM on Kamp in Court

It made me seriously angry that Matt Long blamed the ex-Mormon space, including his friends from infants on thrones, for not believing Rosebud. His podcast interview is dripping with condemnation, completely oblivious or willfully ignorant to Rosebud’s lies and manipulation. Before RFM was on the s...

Re: Does the Interpreter Foundation Have Colonialist Ambitions?

Bednar classifies African Saints this way.

Re: What happens to the Honest Mormon?

The brainwash continues. That one shall be given his reward, not monetary either I suspectify.... This is more fodder for reason to not trust Mormons of any stripe. Their brains are bred weak in church and they are used, a mere tool. The more intelligence ones are by far the more dangerous deceiver...

Re: The Many-Transfigurations theory

A couple of folks over at the Peterson Obsession Board finally noticed the Meridian article -- Dumb-Dud and the former Kerry Shirts, at least -- and have begun to chant their disagreement with it and their disdain for it. As of yet, they've shown no awareness of the actual argument, let alone any s...

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

I would be interested, however, in understanding why drumdude, yourself, and others seem to have a problem with free will. Is there a correlation between having somewhat of an antipathy towards free will and being a non religionist? Do calvinists believe in free will? Just because something appears...

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

I don't know. As of now I am not aware of anyone knowing. Believing that they know is quite widespread in today's world and it hasn't lossed its ability to infect politics, medical care and almost all religions. I think Carl Sagan captured it perfectly. It is possible to be bamboozled. The evidence...

Re: Thomas Stuart Ferguson (May 21, 1915 – March 16, 1983)

Getting answers from prophets that speak only truth and have periscope abilities to see around corners has been reduced to the mundane. Where did the Book of Mormon take place? That battle was lost during the secret meetings of B.H. Roberts back in 1922. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&r...

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.

Some people are more malleable than others because they seem to be predisposed to letting their minds travel the path of least resistance. We’re all prone to that. But after all is said and done we are responsible for our own decisions even as we receive constant input and influences from the outsi...
