ETA: Like, how in the world do you make it to the 70’s being a sort of non-believing believer?? - Doc I really don't think it would be all that difficult. I know a lot of people who are fully engaged in the church because they enjoy it and don't really care whether or not it's true in the sense tha...

I think it has had the actual effect that was intended, at least to some degree. It gave many members the false assurance that some really smart people have answered all of the questions, and the illusion that their doubting family members have no excuse for their doubts. I saw an example of this t...

They are not, they are defending an authoritarian out of touch leadership that has recently thrown them under the bus. In this case what Dr Midgley admits to doing is not muc...

I'd like to see them put their own lives on the line with this . If leadership is all that convinced that meetings are all that important let them attend randomly chosen meetings and have them sit with the audience.


Yeah, like that is going to happen.

Pretty sure we are being trolled once again. Hardy's and Given's books are problematic at best and while they may serve to reinforce someone predisposed to believe, they do not hold up well to any sort of non-biased review. But, to include Callister's book here is risible and why I think we are just...

It looks like to me Chandler is simply illustrating figure #7 in the Hpocephalus of Sheshonq.

This means that closeted gays working for the CHURCH can now legally and lawfully come out of the closet and live their lives naturally as happy gay people. There is nothing the Church can do about it. Firing employees for being gay is a violation of the law and subject to the consequences of feder...
