Re: Mormons arguing that “Mormon” is as derogatory as the N-word

I think there’s a difference between someone doing something decent every now and again, and someone who is decent. Brigham Young may have done a decent thing every now and again. But other people of his time being as bad as he, bad things happening to him and his etc does not excuse him from stand...

Criticism of historical figures is a practically irresistible pastime.
In your opinion, is it ever justified? If so, who?
Ever justified? The act of critiquing historical figures is ALWAYS justified.

Criticism of historical figures is a practically irresistible pastime. Brigham can take it, I’d wager. He’s tough.

Re: Have you ever met a Mormon General Authority…

These are cool stories, much better than mine. I have shaken a few GA hands, but that is about it. My closest encounter was an interview with a Seventy when I applied for a job at BYU. That was memorable.

Re: Elder Holland may not be Secondly Anointed?

you're far too kind, Reverend. I haven't been part of every thread, if Tim has been treated poorly then that's a shame, as he's one of my favorites. Unfortunately for the few believers, to the extent that other members recognize them as traditional believers, they become the customer service rep an...

Re: Mormons arguing that “Mormon” is as derogatory as the N-word

I'm adding this to the pile of monstrous behaviors exhibited by Brigham Young. He may have accomplished things, but in my opinion, he was not 'decent,' relatively or otherwise. Just imagine, what different outcomes would his accomplishments have had, had he actually been a more decent human being? ...

Re: Chad Daybell gets his day in court.

LDS author and fringe cult leader Chad Daybell's day in court begins tomorrow, with opening statements scheduled for 9:00 AM MDT. As was true with his wife, Lori, his trial is being held in Boise because of the potential bias from media coverage in Rexburg. He is charged with first-degree murder an...
