Hi Paul! :wink:
You might make it in as a servant IF you straighten up. That means you will get to do as you're told by those who are over you - such as I.

Sorry to disappoint you, sweetcakes! ;) My mansion is right next to yours! Howdy, neighbor! LOL :)

Oh my. Well then, just don't step over the property line or I'll sue you in heaven.

I'm on your other side, Paul. "Love thy neighbor" takes on new meaning now. ;-)

Every time you guys really get Paul going it takes me back to when I was a young Mormon is the late 70s. The world seemed so much simpler, perhaps because I was well within the box, but it seems like the Church has changed so much since then. Bruce R. McKonckie would have loved you Paul.
I loved it because Mormonism truly did answer everything as long as you stayed inside the box. It truly was better than drugs. Once you step outside the box though and learn the truth about even the smallest thing, be it evolution, or that the Book of Mormon wasn't really what we once thought it to be, it becomes very hard to deal with, but I guess that is part of what Mormonism is about. We didn't want to be protected and sheltered from everything when we came to earth. I'd rather have the truth than be shielded with lies.

And when the confederates saw Jackson standing fearless as a stone wall the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

You are in the minority, from what I have observed. From the GA's on down the food chain, Mormons would prefer to never be confronted with the truth... the truth about Joseph, the truth about the prophets who have spent their entire lives covering up for Joseph, the truth about Brigham, the truth about the stupid ideas Brigham passed off as doctrine, the truth about where the money goes, the truth about the pioneers, the truth about the temple endowment... Mormons do not want the truth, and they fight it, ignore it, denigrate it, and do their very best to trample on it.

I'm with you on that, Harmony. My eyes are now opened wide and I don't like what I see. :-(
