Re: The Church missionary programme is heavily reliant on Utah
Do you think that people in Utah would find it harder to leave the church because it is all around them than a person elsewhere without that energy? Yes. In Utah it’s likely that your entire family, all your friends, and the place where you work is heavily Mormon. Leaving the Church in that circums...

Re: Seeing Things Differently -DanP the apologist excuse.
Robert Sapolsky is one of the most revered scientists alive today. He made his name from his work studying wild baboons in Kenya, unpicking how their complex social lives lead to stress and how that affects their health. His most recent focus, however, has been on something rather different – a boo...

Re: LDS Missionary held on rape charges
I honestly don't believe the church is the problem. I think people who are capable of such crimes have this nature in their core. But I do know people like to take opportunities to have a poke at the church. Where I see the culpability of the church in these kinds of things is that they promote, ve...

Re: LDS Missionary held on rape charges
Does the prophet look prospective missionaries in the eye? I thought it was done by mail. The Apostles take turns in front of a computer screen with an image of each Missionary in front of them. They then receive divine revelation and inspiration about that missionary and about where to assign them...

Re: LDS Missionary held on rape charges
Do we really blame the church for the choices of this man? There are plenty of missionaries who don't find themselves wanting to rape women. I think we risk not holding him entirely accountable for his behaviour if we give him excuses and blame the church. We all know that rape is wrong. The statem...

The mouth, in this case.Imwashingmypirate wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2024 10:57 pmI don't know why he is being charged with sodomy when the statement doesn't say that.
