Re: The Concept of Death

hello,

My personal belief is reincarnation.
When I was Mormon I recall hearing the comment that as Brigham Young entered into the afterlife Joseph Smith was just leaving to become a God. In the song "praise to the Man" there's a phrase where Joseph Smith is mingling with Gods.

Re: The Pope has doubted his faith.

The problem with Mormons is they are taught that doubt is a sin, so they are constitutionally incapable of acknowledging its existence. They are taught it is all or nothing; either the church and the Book of Mormon are completely true or completely false. Either Joseph Smith told the truth about ev...

Re: How bad we had it as missionaries

Hello,

Re: How Do I Process This...

Hello Craig, 1st off I'm sorry for your loss. People have to die in order to eventually come back and live another life in brand new bodies. Your mother will be back. With regards to how to process the experience since the song was on your Iphone it wouldn't be classified as a miracle. That leaves i...

Re: Is hell enough as punishment?

Hello four seasons, What do you think of that answer?... Is that because there are benefits to repent on Earth and not wait until after death? Or does God want some degree of order on Earth? I would be thankfull for answers. God intervened with the Israelites in the wilderness because he (the Ark) w...

Re: Restoration of the Gospel

So it wouldn't matter if it was just a plagiarized fictional book? Hello sr, No. I don't see why it should matter. Whoever originally wrote the Book of Mormon is now dead. The people who plagiarized it are dead too. If we knew who wrote it the copy write period would be over anyway. I see no reason...

Re: Restoration of the Gospel

That being said, they inquired as to whether or not I had ever read the Book of Mormon and of course I have many times, but that was many years ago. They asked whether or not I had sincerely prayed about the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon and again my answer was yes and that I received an answe...
