Re: Mormons Against Trump
Trump is possibly going to get dementia as he is showing early signs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPo1Z54syJE&t=1660s How long will it take for him to catch up with Biden? Well... Trump's been unable to control his bowels, and wearing diapers for years, so he might already have him beat. Toss-u...

Re: The Many-Transfigurations theory
You would think the Saints would abandon this obvious artifact of trickery and hokum. It doesn't bother me because I think I understand the nature and role of miracle stories. My guess is that most miracle stories evolve according to need and a continuing revisitation of the event. Over time, diffe...

Re: Bigotry Unleashed: "SeN" Declares Open Season on Calvinism and Other Faiths
I’ve never forgotten a comment that John Sanders, another Protestant theologian who visited BYU a couple of times (and whom I admire on several levels), made to me and Lou Midgley over dinner one evening: “I would feel a whole lot better about Calvinism,” he remarked, “if I had ever met a Calvinist...

Re: Trump's Religion vs Obama's Religion
Trump's Followers are Cultists, but Obama's Followers Were Not Cultists Because __________________ [...] Indeed. I remember when they made a golden statue of Obama, and Democrats were buying Obama bibles, and Obama shoes, and Obama NFTs, and wearing Obama schwag everywhere they went, getting their ...

Re: Why are Humans living longer?
I thought heart disease is more prevalent now because people eat SH17 now. Whereas years ago, they would have eaten sugar and processed food. But also, we do need to consider that a hundred years ago, they wouldn't have had the technology we have now that could assess what a person died of every ti...

Re: Next President ___________ ?
I'm old fashioned, so I'll be voting for the person who hasn't ever received an endorsement from the American Nazi Party. When that's not a viable metric, it's usually a safe bet voting for the person who hasn't bragged about walking in on children getting dressed. Fortunately this election cycle, I...

Re: Why are Humans living longer?
I think humans are living longer due to advances in medicine and especially dentistry. Plus, we're slowly learning the diets that promote life and which ones promote death. This is one of the reasons (or at least the prevailing theory) on the prevalence of heart disease now, compared to 100 years a...

Re: Why are Humans living longer?
At speeds in the hundreds of mph, we're talking tiny fractions of seconds "gained." For example, if you take a 6 hour flight, going about 550 mph, you'd end up getting an additional 0.000001 seconds. If you flew around for an entire year at that speed, you'd still not gain a full second. At 25% of ...
