A TBM friend of mine saw all of these problems and came to the conclusion that it only had to rain really hard for a short period during those 40 days, just enough to cover all of the mountains with 1/4 inch of water. Baptism requires total submersion, but there is no minimum depth specification. T...

Well yeah, but: Related to the original topic of this post... If the "Great Apostasy" never happened, what is there to 'restore'? The thing that's left to restore is the members' poor understanding of what has been taught specifically by leadership for the past hundred years. So even though it's be...

Is "The Shelf" analogy a form of gaslighting oneself? Young Fluffy: "Tight-like-unto-a-dish Jaredite submarines??? Yeah, that couldn't have happened. Well... With god, all things are possible! Magick!" Young Fluffy then puts the "that couldn't have happened" thought on "The Shelf" and attempts to no...

It's always fun to mention Iron Maiden because any high-demand religionist "knows" that a gaggle of retirement-age English Blokes with guitars and a PA system are EVIL! This just in: hidden cameras in the Holy of Holies reveal that the HG looks like this: https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/...

I just added 2 items to my bucket list. 1. Hang out with Fluffy at a heavy metal concert. :evil: :twisted: 2. Journey into nature with Rubin! :ugeek: Those are some mighty excellent and lofty goals. I'd like to join in on #2. If we do it right, we can make an attempt to hit both of them at the same...

... But as Fluffy will probably post… which God? ... Today, and for this thread, I will choose the Goddess Marimba: An African goddess of music. She is graceful and wise and traditionally considered to be the most beautiful woman to have walked the earth. I know beyond the shadow of knowing, that I...

I will return and report.

Eagerly awaiting said report.

It would be very interesting to see someone with a "checkered past" actually ascend in to the ranks of MORmON royalty. As mentioned, it's highly unlikely. They have plenty of semi-celebrities to fawn over who have "Alma" stories: The tattooed MORmON and Tom Christofferson spring to mind for me, and ...

... Why hasn't lds.org come up with an essay justifying this official belief in Bible fundamentalism? Surely they could play "plain and precious parts removed" card in combination with historicity of the BOM world view. But they haven't done it. They just leave the rationalization to FAIR. Any insi...

Who remembers the hoopla that LD$-Inc. made about the April 2020 General Conference? Rusty and the other 14 stooges made a big deal out of coming up with a new "Proclamation." The Restoration of the Fulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ Funny. Rusty's own university has now proclaimed that his big, ...

"Black or white magic" What's the difference? The color of the magician's hat? ;) White magic is the “good” kind and black magic is the “bad” kind. “Bad” magic is like summoning demons and the “good” kind is like sending Dorthy back to Kansas. “Bad” is done by witches with green faces and “good is ...

“We're witnesses to a process of restoration,” said the prophet. “If you think the Church has been fully restored, you're just seeing the beginning. There is much more to come. … Wait till next year. And then the next year. Eat your vitamin pills. Get your rest. It's going to be exciting.” The Ongo...

Where can I buy a IDKSAF t-shirt?

I'm picturing you with a IDKSAF forehead tattoo, Fluff. I'll even pay for it.

I was thinking: Inside my eyelids. Just to remind myself now and then that I Don't Know...

"Spirit guides"

Is Holy the Ghost™ a "Spirit guide" ?

One of the most powerful spiritual experiences of my life told me to marry my now ex-wife. It's obvious how that turned out. Sometimes those hormone rushes lead to good things, and sometimes they lead to bad things. I think they tend to lead to good more often just because almost any decision usual...

... Is this just me being wacky, or is there something to it? Honestly, I had to read through your post multiple times and the do some ponderizing before much really sunk in. Maybe because I almost immediately jump to being self-aware as "consciousness." Nope. While those two things may be componen...

What was life like in Zion before you were born? Take a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zc5N5cxcfFo Wow, so much of that stuff is still here. I really enjoyed the Saltaire footage. The train track grade is still there and I always wondered what kind of vehicle ran on it. I was thinking a hors...
