Re: Kamala
None of that is necessary; it is written deep into the DNA of Utah. She hasn't got the remotest whisper of a chance here. Yeah, verily, the still small voice whispereth "make the Promised Land white and delightsome again." Yes, Utahns will vote Republican as long as they think that is what Church l...

Re: Kamala
I like her prosecutor vs felon rhetoric. I hope the Saints do not come out with any racial or gender putdowns of the Vice President, like having Anette Dennis announce that one needs a priesthood antenna to help lead the nation, or that she was not valiant in the pre-existence because of her ancestr...

Re: Keeping up with Trump
George Conway made a video with a very strong analysis of Donald Trump that seems well worth watching for an informed voting electorate:

Re: Class action lawsuit over tithing
I watched a Mormon News video in which Bill, RFM, and Rebecca Biblioteca had no qualms about the Utah judge assigned to the case, so I hope everything goes by the merits of the evidence. One potential wild card they did mention is our current Supreme Court issuing a ruling that financial chicanery i...

Re: Russell's Death Spiral
Perhaps we could be more forgiving of ginned-up conference talks if we thought of Mormonism as being grounded in folklore rather than history. Stories deemed outrageous at a history lecture might fit well at a Sci-Fi lecture. Consider the possibility of unleashing the Mormon creative mind in various...

Re: Class action lawsuit over tithing
I understand that class action suits nationwide have been transferred to the Utah Courts where the Church has undisputed influence. In the past judges have dismissed cases rather than risk the wrath of the Church and Utah Citizens. Even if a case goes to trial, Utah juries have their peculiarities (...

Re: Keeping up with Biden
Meet Kamala Harris’s holistic thought advisor Dahlia Rose Hibiscus, who is deeply committed to helping the Vice President translate words into idea voyages. Hibiscus preaches the practice of speaking without thinking and encourages Harris to describe her journeys, molding our Vice President into a ...

Re: Keeping up with Trump
J.D, Vance bought the vice presidency. This week he said he would not have done what Mike Pence did, and if he finds himself in the same position he would replace legitimate electors with false electors to ensure a Trump win. How did the Republican party so easily abandon their identity as the Cons...

Re: Keeping up with Biden
Looks like Biden is out. OK by men, but do Democratic voters really want Kamala? Weirdness abounds. Pete Buttigieg has the attributes of being the smartest, most honest, capable, and healthiest candidate, but he is also gay. This would cause Utah to immediately secede from the Union (but that alone...

Re: Evangelicals
I am mostly housebound tethered to an oxygen concentrator. I remember those two churches as having more inspiring messages than evangelical assemblies.
I imagine the Mushroom Church leads to good visions. BTW, is their mascot Mr. Truffluffegas?

Re: Evangelicals
Hagoth, is there any way you could visit both Unity of Salt Lake and the Center for Spiritual Living on separate Sundays and give us a report?
Just a thought.

Re: Russell's Death Spiral
Uchtdorf's messages were too Christian (that love of Jesus stuff is decidedly anti-Mormon) and his popularity drew attention from the rest of the Brethren.

Re: Evangelicals
I know there are at least two schools of Evangelicals: the religious and the non-religious. One of the religious Evangelicals posts at Discuss Mormonism and she seems like a nice and caring person. The other sort of Evangelicals are political. They are the ones who would crucify Jesus if he denied t...

Re: Russell's Death Spiral
I've been travelling and haven't been following NOM. Yesterday when I finally sat down to take a look I saw this thread, not realizing that it was one I started and thought it was going to be about Nelson's current medical condition. President Nelson is looking forward to his 100th Birthday Celebra...

Re: Keeping up with Trump
Judge Aileen Cannon has dismissed Trump's stolen documents case. While the 11th Circuit Court could remove Cannon, I suspect they will stand down knowing the Trump Supreme Court would have Cannon's back. They dropped the case because they for one, knew it was illegal. While I usually use he/she pro...
