Re: Why Mormons Dominate MLMs
As a libertarian I ask what is wrong with people getting involved in MLM schemes? They get a lot of psychic benefit. Who are you to condemn it? Do you really think the government is qualified to tell a single mother not to get involved in an MLM? I have two different Mormon friends who were convinc...

Re: Porn addiction meetings
I'm just having a hard time imagining how this works. Most addiction meetings are meant to be at least somewhat-anonymous. Meeting with other members of your ward to talk about your addiction is the exact opposite of anonymous. Are they sharing details? Do these men (and I'm sure it's all men) sit ...

Re: Why does the church want active non-believers?
I think it's a great question, Dark Helmet, and there is an answer. The leadership is following a police state model. Since the Church doesn't really have the power to operate like a real police state -- and hope to God it never does because it will -- it has to be very good at implied threats. My ...

Would a dousing show an outcome at the place where Joseph hit the ground or just the area in general?

Re: Democracy. (This is not a political discussion)
The Paris Climate accord is a conspiracy to beat down third world countries and force limits upon their productions where First World countries have not had them. And any country that chooses another system than that already tried by the First World should consider it a lost cause before they start...

Democracy. (This is not a political discussion)
With a show of hands, How many posters here think democracy is a good idea? Now I realize that all of us who have been raised in the church are understandably weak in the basic ideas of democracy. We were taught, told, instructed that our church was not a democracy, that our homes (read families) di...

Re: A Great and Dreadful Day, Part III: The Book of Abraham
- TWENTY-NINE - A thin blade of sunlight was coming through the gap in the dark velvet curtains in the office of LDS Church President Alma Grange Baylor. The light was visible because of the dust motes in the air: they fluttered and shifted in the sunlight so that it seemed as if a luminous pane of...

I am truly envious of the amount of time and research you have spent on giving an informed challenge to the OP. Keep up the good work. Oh, and I especially e...

Re: Mormon Millenials new study out - findings may surprise
Like all surveys, the answers hang upon the questions. Are you a good person or are you a filthy person in thought and deed? (Yeah I know I'm exaggerating) is the type of question that generates a foregone response. Poll results can be skewed depending on the questions. So how about providing questi...

Re: Temple missionary work
In an article about the LDS temple in France, why did they post a picture of the Academie Nationale de Musique? Wouldn't a picture of the LDS temple--you know, the one about which the article was written--have been a little more . . . relevant? Temples are sacred. Photos of the temple would constit...
