Re: Vaticinium ex eventu
When googling Moroni's visit; 1823, Joseph Smith; known for good and evil I get a whole list of Moroni's prophecy fulfilled by FARMS, BYU studies et. al. as it's the whole first page and I wonder if someone have contacted Google or have computer skills to ensure that's what one conducting a search ...

Re: Doubt & Questioning a Contradiction to Faith?
Text produced by an advanced A.I. could be indistinguishable from that authored by a deity, hence exercising caution is recommended. This response was generated by an A.I..Dr. Shades wrote: ↑Wed Apr 10, 2024 2:29 pmSo, we’re taking A.I.-generated texts seriously enough to start threads on now?

Re: Doubt & Questioning a Contradiction to Faith?
Conclusion Whether the views opposite to those presented in the article make people "better" depends on how one defines "better" in the context of religious faith and community life. For some, spiritual growth and community cohesion are best achieved through strict adherence to established doctrine...

Re: Elder Holland may not be Secondly Anointed?
It's a shame, in a way, Smith died when he did. Can you imagine how many people are missing out on their 3rd, 4th, 5th ... anointings?

Re: Mormons arguing that “Mormon” is as derogatory as the N-word
I assume everyone is sitting alone on their computers or phones. Maybe no one is around but the dog or cat. Maybe a house plant or a clown chotchke. You're totally alone. Say "Mormon". Easy. Now say the "N" word. Did you say the "N" word? No right? Then stop it with these comparisons. I'm alone. I ...

Re: Mormons arguing that “Mormon” is as derogatory as the N-word
So when this guy hears them introduce the choir at General Conference he thinks to himself they are saying the equivalent of "N-word Tabernacle Choir"? And what about the "Book of N-word"? Mormons Oneandonlytrueandlivingchurchofjesuschristians are getting weirder by the minute (Hinckley's protestat...

Re: Latter-day Saints have the highest rate of weekly church attendance
Simple math will tell you that this percentage is not based on the membership numbers the church reports. Church claims 17,000,000 members. Church says there are about 24,000 wards. 17,000,000 divided by 24,000 = 708 members per ward. 708 x 67% = 481 members in the pews each week. My guess that even...

Re: Temple Sealings of Dead People that Were Married More than Once
The devil is in the details. For fun, try and get a Mormon to explain how it’s all going work. Very quickly they’ll turn to “God will sort it all out, we just need to have faith” as a way of ending the chat. It always leads to that, at which point I ask: "What is the point of claiming to possess Go...
