Actually, it is much more accurate to compare Mormonism to your type science denial than to the scientific consensus, DB. You entirely overlook the single differentiating element. Mormonism can produce zero evidence to support its claims. Climate science has produced massive bodies of evidence. It i...

Sounds like someone is selling Pruvit products and gets all their health information from a couple sources. Sounds like someone also assumes the rest of us are fat and can't see our own euphemisms. I can see my euphemism very well, from frightened turtle to screaming dragon. I'm saying most health ...

Dirty Bird, Diet concerns aside, let's assume you have convinced us that you know more about climate science than all of the world's climate scientists. Please finish explaining your main point. Why do the Leftists want to depopulate the planet? What is the proper natural population growth? Why is i...

So basically, you are asking me to be more like you, and less like me, so you're comfortable reading my threads? No. I'm just challenging your conspiracy theory proposition, and wondering why you think a post-Mormon support group is the best platform to preach it. I would enjoy addressing this "won...

Okay, I'm going to act as if you are truly interested in having a discussion about this topic. What? You created this thread with the thesis and conclusion that: In the end, all of this bullxxxx about climate change revolves around a single straightforward objective. Depopulating the earth. They pl...

Dirty Bird, please excuse me for being a little dense, but I'm still struggling with the logic here. Maybe you can explain it in a way that I can understand. Let's say the Leftists succeed in their devious plot to reduce population growth, so it stabilizes at the current 8-ish billion or maybe even ...

I do wonder how often today various bishops and stake leaders feel the need to dig into recommend answers or to ask their own questions. This was a long time ago, but I had a friend who was engaged to get married in the temple, but the SP said he would not grant his fiancé a recommend unless they b...

After hearing some more quotes from that book I want to revise my previous statement. Even in my early 20s I wouldn't have bought into some of that quakery. It gets a bit wild and weird. Yeah, even in my most fanatically devout missionary days I don't think I would have been able to make myself bel...

You completely sidestepped my question with another fun attempt to lead me down a rabbit hole. Please tell me more about how I can verify the existence and activities of these Leftist and their global conspiracies. Also, you never gave me a straight answer about whether or not you believe these Left...

A response to Jeff Holland's warning that if you stop clinging to the lifeboat you are surrendering yourself to be lost in the storm. But when you finally do let go you realize it was much scarier in the boat than out.

So basically, you are asking me to be more like you, and less like me, so you're comfortable reading my threads? No. I'm just challenging your conspiracy theory proposition, and wondering why you think a post-Mormon support group is the best platform to preach it. You don't have to quote me back to...

Disembarking the Good Ship Zion

Thanks Angel! Have a great season! Spaghetti Monster bless us, every one.

Permit me to pose a question to you, Hagoth. If you are so concerned about population growth, why don't you pay for an entire village in a small African community to be sterilized? Or perhaps you should pay for a group of rednecks living in a small West Virginia holler to be sterilized so that you ...

Uchtdorf stands as one of those restore the Church potentialities rather than one who assists it into steady decline. Depends on what you mean by "restore". Or what he would restore it to. I don't think there's much that can be done to halt it's steady decline. I'm secretly hoping Oaks will make it...

Also, when someone stops attending LDS church, they often grow some facial hair, change their hair style, start wearing sleeveless tops, get a second piercing or a tattoo, wear non-white shirts to funerals, etc. They might also frown back and all of the frowns, judgmental looks and passive-aggressiv...

On the Stay LDS forum there is some thread about nuancing the temple rec questions so that you're not lying but also getting the questions right enough to get the golden ticket. Here's what my bishop-who-became-my-stake-president told me to do: "When I ask 'do you have faith in, and a testimony of....

Regarding Oaks...maybe someone will push him down the stairs or something. Yikes. Probably burn in hell for that one.

At least you won't be alone. Give Brother Oaks my regards!

Imagine it.. a capella hymns that don't stay on tune. Little kids running all over the place. Teenagers talking. Babies crying. 1st counselor in the bishopric running to Circle K for sacrament bread because deacon Trevor's mom didn't remind him to bring the loaf to church. ...cats and dogs lying do...

The Mormon patriarchy teaches that an ordained man has some particular ability as a healer, through priesthood blessings. The expectation that I had magical power to heal and to give revelatory insight to fix peoples' lives was enormously traumatizing to me. My wife and her unmarried or mixed-faith...
