Re: How to respond to believing spouse?
This is the child's event, not the parents. Do what it takes to serve the child's interest, even down to skipping baptism if so chosen. D&C 68 42 "For all men must repent and be baptized, and not only men, but women, and children who have arrived at the years of accountability." D&C 18 25 "And agai...

Re: How to respond to believing spouse?
For anyone dealing with this "Stuck" situation I would highly recommend you watch this recent podcast from Mormon Stories. It truly shows the damage that comes from living an inauthentic life. But it also shows the peace and health that comes from having some courage. To live in fear is paralyzing a...

Re: Psychics & Ballards
Women are taking some control of their lives by trying to find something that works for them better than the lame-ass priesthood of their husbands. You know, I should have asked them if a priesthood blessing had been attempted, but Mrs. Palerider is kicking me under the table enough as it is when I...

Re: How to respond to believing spouse?
In 10 years it may all be meaningless because the church is beginning to falter. Or..... On the other hand, in 10 years (if it doesn't collapse) the church will use your son's baptism as a bludgeon to guilt him into serving a mission and further enslave himself to the Corp via temple covenants. And ...

Re: Psychics & Ballards
We have Mormon friends here who have a Mormon "seeing holistic healer" who, over the phone, diagnosed the herbal deficiency that was causing the wife's hip problem from 110 miles away. "She's amazing", said the wife. 8 months later she finally went in and had her arthritic hip replaced..... She's mu...

Re: Today was a hard day !
Conman,
The psychological toll here must be terribly draining. Is this really better than outing one's self as a nonbeliever?
Does your own psychological/emotional health count for nothing in order to make everyone else happy?
You obviously love those around you more than they love you.

Re: Temples, temples everywhere...
Where’s the down side? Well, if there really is a God as they claim, and he really cares about the poor, as the NT claims, they could be in trouble when they die. But that’s a bunch of “ifs” and ironic that they are more in trouble if they are right about what they teach. That's the great thing abo...

Re: Temples, temples everywhere...
Attention future presidents: If you don't bring this mania to a screeching halt soon you will have a thousand temples waiting in the wings despite a membership that is actually shrinking. It's insanity. Just read recently that the church is too heavy on the money side and they need to use a bunch o...

Re: New Spaulding Theory?
I saw this a couple of days ago and tried to post a link on this site. Unfortunately I couldn't access the NOM site. What's up with that?
Anyway I think Lars has found at the very least, a plausible or credible origin for the BoM and possibly a smoking gun.

Re: Priesthood DoorDash
I've had them call and ask me to speak in sacrament meeting and had them send the missionaries even when I've asked them nicely but firmly not to. The resignation letter was the only thing that seemed to break through the "I'm doing this for your own good" determination that envelopes the minds of m...

Resignation help
Any truth to the rumor that a member can now resign electronically on the church's website or some such?
My dear wife is getting ready to pull the trigger.

Re: The new throat-slitting
True, you swear before God and Angels, but it is to Russell M. Nelson and Co. that you really pledge your life and allegiance. Am I wrong about this? You are not wrong. If you go back and listen to Rusty's closing talk, he makes a statement regarding "making covenants with God AND YOUR LEADERS." I ...

Re: Best part of conference?
I was a little surprised to hear Nelson state that baptism will get you into the Celestial Kingdom but only temple covenants and marriage would get you "Exaltation" within the Celestial Kingdom.
I've never read that baptism alone, would get you into the CK.

Re: NOMference Spring 2024 Sunday afternoon!!!!
Good makeup work. Great tan on a 99 year old. Looks surprisingly well for his age given how unforgiving 4K cameras can be. My wife and I both commented immediately that he's been "botoxed" and done fillers. Seriously, they've done something with him. That's pretty vain at his age. You know he had t...

Still sucking up even at his age. Nelson is at home keeping track of who mentions him the most.
