Re: Shut the “F” Up, Hillary
I don't think it was a good question. Had Markk been reading my posts he would have picked up on the belief I hold that the Democratic party is at historic levels of diversity ...

Re: Ghost Committee Theology
"I, Nephi, being born of goodly parents on one dark and stormy night, on which the rain was only interrupted, it may be observed, by gusts of ponderous filler-prose." That entire phrase, of course, can be accurately translated from this Reformed Egyptian symbol: § - Doc Are you quite cert...

Re: Ghost Committee Theology

Re: Ghost Committee Theology
The saints join arms with the Swedenborgians and Spiritualists. Ron Huggins has written a fascinating article on Swedenborgian modalism in the Book of Mormon.

Re: DCP Tries on "Blackface" at 'Sic et Non'
