Re: Work for Neanderthal Dead
Having a General Conference talk on Our Dear Pre-Adamite Brothers and Sisters would be wonderful. After all, they were around for many millennia before the Mormon Adamites appeared in Missouri. They were able to help instruct the Adamites in clothing construction, food gathering, shelter making, an...

Re: New Spaulding Theory?
I've read about half the book, and it seems speculative to me. The author writes like Hugh Nibley; Take a few facts, find possible parallels, cleverly speculate. I thought the part about Athanasius Kircher was very interesting. I wish we could find out more about this guy: en.wikipedia.org › wiki ›...

Work for Neanderthal Dead
The Family Proclamation talks about “All Humans - Male and Female…”, which would seem to imply Neanderthals are included as they are ancient humans…. Had there been any effort from the church to do work for the dead Neanderthals? I wonder if genetic companies like Ancestry could play a part in ident...

Re: Temples, temples everywhere...
Most of you have probably been tracking the tactics the church is taking to get some of these temples built in Wyoming, Nevada and Texas. The church is now claiming the tall, tall steeple is integral to the religious observance in the temple…. The church has sent out letters to ward leaders in these...

Re: The Mormon church is looking to crack down on... garments?!
One recent thing said by some church leader (I don’t know who) was the garments remind us of the veil. This sounded like some new gospel approach, but I’m not entirely sure. One thing we learn in the temple is the marking on the individual garments are found on the veil. I suppose the garments do re...

Re: The Mormon church is looking to crack down on... garments?!
Something that dawned on me the other day is how the church really likes to oppress women. In the United States, the government has recently cracked down on women rights. Roe v Wade was overturned. States went crazy and exacted archaic laws to take away women rights. The church then piled on and cra...

Re: The Mormon church is looking to crack down on... garments?!
The deeper concern from members not wearing garments all the time is that of jealousy. Nobody likes garments. They are worn as a sacrifice they are making. When women see other women wearing yoga pants all day and athletic wear instead of garments, they instantly become jealous. If there was a new r...

Re: Strange Results from Heaven War
I’ll give you baklava as a most valiant pastry.
I used to be fed tripe in menudo and it often tasted and smelled like you might think. Surely that was more offensive than the bold and inspiring smell of mountain grown coffee.

What is the purpose of religion?
It seems to me the purpose of religion is two fold. 1) when religions first started, millennia ago, they tried to explain the origin of man. Where man came from, why we are here, etc. There wasn’t much science so nobody really knew. 2) Death- people fear death and the unknown. Religions usually try ...

Would you do it all over?
I was thinking today about if I were not Mormon and knew what I know about Mormonism, would I ever join the church? The answer was undoubtedly No. I would never join Mormonism knowing all the church history, messed up racist and sexist doctrines, protection of sexual predators, and deceptive and dis...

Young people particularly hate wearing garments. They hate being controlled. This will go over like a fart in church.

Yes, this should be a safe place. If someone has bad feelings toward any member of this circle, they should take them to mormondialogue.org.

Re: Teaching the wrong stuff
So, if the issue is not necessarily the guns, but mental health, why is mental health much worse in general across the USA than in the 1970s and 1980s?

I have Mormon cooking questions, too. 1) do you have recommended cooking wines?
