Clark, you know that other thread you're in where MrStakhanovite is saying, not in so many words, that Mormon apologists are full of crap? It's a general consensus that in a narrative, you should show, not tell, and I for one appreciate your showing, not telling. For example, your tone policing. I m...

But now that you have been made aware that there are literally millions of people who consider UFOs to be religious and who derive meaning to life, ethical orientation, and so forth from UFO phenomena, I'm sure you'll revise your position and agree that your arbitrary criteria are not in fact a val...

Holland's numbers never made sense at the time and appeared to be a rather linear interpolation that neglected what caused the surge. This was oft discussed at the time. I suspect Holland just misspoke after seeing a linear extrapolation. Who can read this powerful testimony of Jeffrey R. Holland's...

I don't think UFOs are religious in the sense they give meaning to life, ethical orientation and so forth. The OP is about a religious view of UFOs from people who derive meaning to life, ethical orientation, and so forth from UFOs. The Church of Scientology is a religion in which people seek meani...

Here's the gripe I have with this thread: even the most trenchant criticism levied so far doesn't do justice to the rampant idiocy that is the notion---it's not a theory, it's not even an idea---propounded by Mopologists in the OP.

As anyone looking at the board and/or current Utah news is aware, board member Consiglieri (under his real name, obviously) recently won a ruling from the Utah Records Committee, finding that BYU's police department is a government agency for the purpose of the Utah Government Records Access and Man...

Surely these judges in Israel would know they were being recorded, though. Their gift of discernment would tell them.

Prithee, I beseech thee! Record not these ministrations we shall make unto Prudence Goodwyfe, who has trucked with the Devil!

I had a story idea similar to the OP. In modern day San Francisco, a Hebrew banker is a spokesman for the Anti-Defamation League and has been asking the LDS Church to stop doing baptisms for the dead for Holocaust victims. Rusell M. Nelson sends a hit squad from the Strengthening Church Members com...
