Jeffrey mentioned correlation of finances, but a bigger part of correlation than just financial was making the relief society into nothing but a sham of a “women’s organization”. It is no longer a women’s organization but a men’s organization for their women folk. It is completely run by men now wher ...

I don’t know that this is in the wrong forum, because to my eyes, it applies to the church just a little too much. Do I need to put up examples of the lying from the church in recent years, let alone all the way back to con man Joseph Smith? Or what about other denominations who also engage in s ...

There is good evidence that Trump is suffering from Alzheimer’s. There is an article by two psychologists that shows a video of him walking along the red carpet in Alaska where he obviously cannot walk in a straight line. It points out that he is swinging one leg wide, which causes him to veer one d ...

Trump is selling hats with the slogan Trump in 2028 in the White House gift shop. The Quorum of the Twelve will declare that there is nothing in LDS doctrine to prohibit this and that they will take no position against this move. They will point out that the Constitution is purely a secular matter ...

The "War in Heaven" is fun to discuss with MORmON believers. The contradictions it invokes are "fun," as Hagoth has shown. Does anyone out there in NOM-land know anything about what other religious sects believe about the pre-earth-life "War?" Other Christian religions pretty much believe there was ...

My daughter in law passed quietly May 3.

How do religion based governments compare to secular based governments? what are your thoughts? Do you really need to even ask this? Do a deep dive on Henry VIII of England and his family and then try to imagine the situation with no churches involved. Look at the Middle East and what they were ...

Either way one picks to look at the polygamy problem, there is a problem. It is a pick your poison proposition if one wants to believe the church is true. We are told the Lord will never allow the prophet to lead the church astray, then we have to pick who to throw under the bus. The church picks ...

Thank you everyone. You guys are still my people, even though I am not posting much or even here very often. Daughter in law is sleeping almost all the time now. She probably only has a few more days. It is so hard to bury your children and this one is my daughter more than the woman who gave birth ...

To maintain their denial. We have a situation in which my daughter is forced to deal with her in laws. Well, OK, I’ll get to the situation AFTER I tell the funny story about the parents of my daughter in law (lesbian) and her sibling. But yes, several things going on with the situation and it may be ...

The Good Samaritan did not go chasing after the robbers to get them to repent and leave the man on the roadside to die. The Good Samaritan saw to the injured man. And he let God see to the sinner. The church does it the other way around. They only care about the repentance of the sinner and leave ...

Is this related to money changers in the temple? Odd bedfellows, as most of the right wing religions consider us to be non Christian. On the other hand, even my TBM husband boycotts them because of their political stupidity. I read it to him and he just said that even being inside the temple doesn’t ...

Once again, the church had a duty to report because their knowledge of abuse came from victims telling their parents, not confession. But the church seems like it thinks it is easier to repent for the perpetrator if they are not punished by the law. So, they talk to the perp, telling him to repent ...

This is one of the Sunday School lessons that I never got to give. :shock: ;) for the sake of discussion try to answer as a TBM, but if you can't, any response is appreciated. When did you earn God's love? Apologies? All you gotta say is: When did you earn MORmON god's love. It's easy to answer ...

I didn’t even realize it was this weekend until my husband said something about it.

Better yet, learn the symbolism behind the rainbow flag. Each color means something to the community.

I think this was just plain dumb what the state legislature did. I am a supporter of LGBTQ people. To be transparent, I was not a fan of gays commandeering the rainbow. I used to have a rainbow air freshener on my rear view mirror and so there was that problem. I recommend LGBTQ do another takeover ...

The more time you spend trying to prove to others that you are correct, the more likely that you are wrong.

Church that sends out missionaries, more likely wrong.
Trump throwing his weight around to prove he is strong, most likely weak.

Proof there is no God or he would have been struck by lightening by now. Sure, set up a $$$resort on the rubble of a war zone where the bodies haven’t even been dug out.

Yeah, but the ISSUE is worth billyuns and billyuns in political capital. That's the real issue. Personally, I wouldn't want my daughter wrestling against a boy, but if she really wants to I won't stop her. Sports are just an escape from reality anyway, until they're not. :roll: I hope this post ...
