$5?! for a tooth?! Inflation sucks! Linked, good job on being real with your son. AZflyer - don't eat out for lunch too often, that kid has got a few more teeth to cash in. Ya, our four other kids were none too happy that the 'baby' got $5. There were quite a few protests. That kid is going to be s...

Why is the private message limit so low? 50 Messages? really? That's it? I've got over 25,000 emails in my gmail account.

Can you guys keep up with google? (sarcasm)

Our youngest is four years old and just lost his first tooth. My wife, who is the LESS believing of the two of us, was SUPER excited to put some money under his pillow and play 'toothfairy' for the night. It was so great to see the enormous smile on his face when he came in the next morning with a $...

Personally, I think LDS people in general stood up more against Trump than any other Christian group this election season. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/mormons-consciences-have-put-white-evangelicals-to_us_5802d33de4b0985f6d15724c And when a liberal organization like Huffpo makes those claims...

Then came the victim blaming. He said it's the members' fault for ever having dreamed up the notion that Joseph actually looked at the plates through a pair of magic spectacles. The real information was always out there but we chose to invent another story, despite what the records actually say. "S...

I just saw you Facebook posts and was reminded of what you're going through this weekend. Don't worry bud. It will be over soon.

We need to do another get together. I need to have lunch with you guys, especially after last night. The next one is Wednesday, Feb 1 at 11:30 at Famous Dave's at 1101 N Dobson. We may have an exJW joining us. I'll make every effort to be there. We have a new schedule at work which is making it a l...

If you hadn't asked it, you'd probably be living with the other uncomfortable feeling of regretting it and wishing you had. Nothing about this is easy. ..Wow. Thanks so much for sharing this. I'm sitting in the back of my gospel doctrine class right now wondering if I did the right thing. I've got ...

What sucks? Are you in sacrament?

That must be it. I'm expecting his avatar to change over to Hades with his hair on fire any moment.

Wow....that took such courage to stand and ask that question to an Apostle! And in front of your peers and fellow church members...amazing. Kudos and bravo! I think what they DIDN'T say in response revealed more than what they DID say. No disputing that Joseph married young teens, no calling it an ...

Is it too early to nominate azflyer as NOM of the year? I second that NOMination! You are both too kind. I am in somewhat of a unique situation compared to many people here, and my circumstances have emboldened me quite a bit. There are so many people here that have gone through so much more than I...

How many do you think were in attendance at just your Stake Center? Was it for adults only or were the youth invited? Off the top of my head, I'd say there were between 600 and 800 people there, but that is a complete guess. The entire chapel, overflow, cultural hall and stage were completely packe...

We need to do another get together. I need to have lunch with you guys, especially after last night.

I can confirm! I saw and heard AZ flyer with my own eyes and ears. Thanks so much for summarizing RR. Well done, Azflyer. I really appreciate the incisive question that you posed. It sounds like the apostles have already given the best answers they possibly can. It's simply a question of whether or...

Thanks for letting us know you successfully asked a question - I sent a PM and would love to hear how things went. After thinking about it a bit more, I decided I will do a public write up. I hope you can all appreciate how I'm kind of putting myself out there by doing this. The meeting was broadca...

I must have missed that. Fair enough, credit where credit is due, good for the Church for speaking out.

Well, it happened tonight. I was able to stand and ask a question directly to Elder Rasband and I received answers to the question I asked from both Elder Ballard and Elder Rasband. I'm pretty tired and am going to bed now. I don't think I am going to do much explanation of how it all went down here...

President Trump made some serious threats to the religious freedoms of Muslims during the campaign, and did I hear word one about it from the Chicken Littles who have been running around telling me the sky is falling and religious freedom is under attack? No, I certainly did not. I bed to differ......

Well, I had a dream about the fireside. The questions were all pre-selected and NOM was not happy about it.

I think I need to spend less time on here...

I agree with your assessment here.

AZflyer, I like your question. It is legitimate. I would recommend polishing up the wording to make it more concise. Put it on a note card so you can remember it and keep it short. Practice giving it a few times. Maybe even shed a tear when asking it for dramatic effect. Thanks for the advise. I am...
