Okay, it is about a year now that I decided to be an atheist-leaning agnostic. However, I was taught all my life that Families can be eternal. It brings me no happiness to think there is probably no after-life. I now fear death more than ever. I think am a little crazy now. It hurts to think I wast...
The evil men did not succeed. After once retrieving the plates from a secret place, Joseph was attacked by three men but fought his way out, his mother Lucy Mack Smith recorded in her book, "History of Joseph Smith." "As he was jumping over a log, a man sprang up from behind and gave...
The UK population grew by more than 1/2 a million (513,300, 335,000 immigrants and increase in births 171,100. births minus deaths) in 2016. The UK's total population is est. 65 million.

Thank goodness for the light of Christ, or else James Renwick would never have put that massive circular window on the front of the Smithsonian Institution. And there was absolutely no chance whatsoever that Joseph Smith could have come across drawings of European cathedrals with circular windows (...
That is an assumption. It is a theory. It is not an observable phenomenon in nature. The examples of hybrid speciation provided upthread as demonstrations of speciation that could take place in the span of a human lifetime were apparently not to zerinus' liking. He claimed to remain unconvinced reg...
(" Do you believe the fossil record is that of another planet?") As far as this planet specifically is concerned, again we don’t know the answer to that question if you go back far enough. Was this earth part of an earlier “creation cycle”? We have no way of knowing, unless it is revealed...
Your question is not as straightforward as you might think. When you say “death before Adam’s fall,” how far do you want to go back “before Adam’s fall”? You see, in Mormon theology this earth is not the only inhabited planet. There have been trillions of them before, and will continue to be after....
