Re: Prayer to the ocean

That is what surfing does for me. When the waves are small, or bad shape, I still go out and call it therapy surf. Just sitting in the ocean and enjoying the peace it brings is addicting. I surfed over 100 times last year!

Re: Questions to get TBMs thinking

If Pres Nelson, The Prophet, came to you and personally asked for your 15-year-old daughter to be his plural wife, would you give her to him, or would you call the police?

Re: Girls Camp

My granddaughter turned 12 last summer and was so excited to go to girl’s camp. She came home in tears and will never go again. A leader got up and started bashing gays with the normal rhetoric she had heard in general conference about gays being led by Satan. My daughter’s family has a close friend ...

Re: Another Book

Rob, I wrote a blog post over at Wheat and Tares about an old anti-Mormon book my father gave me. In that book it has a quote from BY justifying the counterfeiting. I asked if anybody had ever heard that quote. I bet that it is in your new book. Please return and report!

Re: The many Ps in life.....

I think you forgot a "P". You've had one too many "Pricks" in your life. Not all men are Pricks. But don't be in a rush. Now that your window for men is open to the world, you have so many more opportunities.

See Rock Waterman's thoughts on the new FP here on his Pure Mormonism blog. Note: he is looking at this from a Snufferite POV, but he gives a lot of great references.

Re: Declining convert baptisms

When the numbers for church finance became embarrassing, they stopped reporting them. Why wouldn't they stop reporting membership statistics when they were not faith promoting?
