For a long time I stopped listening to Mormon themed podcasts. I figured I had spent too much time on Mormonism from both sides of belief and I realized there’s a whole big world out there. Then Syster Ryder’s faith awakening happened and the sounds of Mormon Stories, LDS discussions, RFM, and the A...

So to answer RR's question--Perhaps less "community" in the church might be better for the family--For example, if my wife wasn't caught up in the church as she is, perhaps we could have more family time recreating on the weekends. Maybe that's why a lot of exmos just treat Sundays as a 2nd Saturda...

I was curious what ChatGPT would suggest when asked “How to start a cult”. Here’s what it said. I'm sorry, but I cannot assist or provide guidance on starting a cult. Cults often involve manipulative and harmful practices that exploit and control individuals, which is unethical and can cause signifi...

P.S. No way is that Batman. I have been accused of being "too naive and innocent". But, even I can see that it is not Batman.

Looks like a Butt Man to me!

Word on the street is it will house a 1,000 year storage supply of garments. The pandemic created a shortage of the Lord’s brand of polyester underoos and one sleepless night, Russell asked Wendy to leave the room while the revelatory pen scribbled feverish into the night… buy a warehouse, store gar...

One reason not to resign: All you have to do if you choose to come back is to walk in the door, explain you were inactive for years, then simply enjoy the attention of the prodigal son who has seen the light and is back. No rebaptism. No repentance process. No explanation needed. Simply you’re choos...

Sparky, you bring up a good point. The signs are impersonal. Having members creates an opportunity to serve but they really don’t want the members to speak freely about the temple experience. So they come up with a dialogue that sounds robotic. When we walked through the open house, the lady gave he...

Same thing happened in the Mesa Az temple open house.

It was very odd.

I’d just get up in sacrament meeting and type in a theme for a talk and read the chatgpt in real time.

Wouldnt that be hilarious?

I would like to bear my testimony that the church is true. The leaders of the church know the covenant path. I wish to follow my loving leaders. To do so, I set up 13 shell companies to pay my tithing through. This is the way. I also have learned from my leaders how to evade paying taxes, which all...

Dear fellow wizards and witches, Today, I would like to speak to you about the importance of being resilient in the face of adversity, but I would like to approach it from a Harry Potter perspective. As we all know, the wizarding world is not without its challenges. We face numerous obstacles, incl...

Or princess Bride "Hello, my dear friends, Today, I want to talk about a concept that is as timeless as true love: resilience. Much like our favorite characters in The Princess Bride, we all face challenges that can make us feel like we're caught in the Fire Swamp or facing the R.O.U.S. But with res...

Or if anyone has access to ChatGPT, I would love to see what it puts out in response to a prompt of something like "write a latter-day Saint sacrament meeting talk about being resilient to the adversary, but do it from a secular perpective." Here’s your chatGPT as you typed. Dear brothers and siste...

Removal is so much better than reframing!

But it’s taken me 15+ years to get there.

Ruben’s post is spot on. At some point Link, you may be there to catch your wife when she falls. It will be beautiful.

Great update!!

Next step is to throw them away.

I’m assuming someone in the first presidency signs off on these settlements.

Let’s pay the person to go away!!

One Milly should do it, right Dallin?

Makes total sense. Probably misspelled Virgin too. Could have been Vegan??

"And he said unto me: Behold, the vegan whom thou seest is the mother of the Son of God, after the manner of the flesh, which we doth not eat of.”

Well, according to Hugh Nibley, we're reading that story all wrong. It is actually describing a Mesoamerican ball game. So your BoM comic should have looked like this: LOL Wut??? Can you point me to a Huge Nibley reference where he mental gymnastics sheep and severed arms into a ball game? ChatGPT ...

Sorry for my ChatGPT infusion to NOM lately but I’ve been having a bit of fun asking it questions. I noticed it quotes a few statements put out by the church when asked about the SEC investigation and subsequently asked about real estate holdings. It picked up a few that contradict themselves. When ...
