Pornography is a drug that destroys love. Nobody with lust or an adulterous heart can witness pornography without falling prey to this most pernicious sin. There is art and there is pornography. A statue or a painting can also be pornographic if one's intent is sexual. Even Facebook, Instagram, book...

In my reading of the Septuagint I have become fascinated with the plain and simple truths of the Bible. The day of rest on the Sabbath is how God has asked us to worship. Out of all the things we could do, like drawing water or planting trees or building altars, God has simply asked us to rest and d...

The apologetics I have read include worship on Saturday includes cleaning the church and taking care of housekeeping as respect to God. However, this seem to directly contradict the idea of a "day of rest."

On that note, I'm heading out to the wilderness to worship and encourage you to do the same.

In my recent reading of the Bible clearly the date for rest and worship of higher intelligence is the last day of the week: Saturday. Why do Christians, both Catholic and Mormons, worship on Sunday the first day? Is there some occult reason why those who claim to love God, life, and the universe wou...

There is a very interesting alternative chronology of history that I glanced over which compares the historical recordings of the solstices instead of the ancient writings passed down from the nobles and monasteries of the "dark ages" in Europe. This mathematical reorganization of the past reveals n...

No genetic traces of Israelite genetics are found in Native Americans!!! This puts LDS apologetics into overdrive trying to come up with plausible-sounding excuses. What if instead the Israelite DNA sample is incorrect? It's very possible the history of Israel and the genetic lineage has been compl...

THE LAST MAN. BY THOMAS CAMPBELL. All worldly shapes shall meet in gloom, The sun himself shall die, Before this mortal shall assume Its immortality! I saw a vision in my sleep, That gave my spirit strength to sweep Adown the gulf of time! I saw the last of human mould, That shall creation's death ...

Looks very ambiguous in its beliefs…sorry to nit pick. Serious question though is how does a group strongly linking itself and exaltation to science and technology reconcile this with its belief in scriptures brought forth by a prophet that contradict everything we know from a scientific perspectiv...

The “law” of the land should always be subject to God’s law and not the other way around. Therefore, Joseph was totally in the right and should not have been sent off to jail because God’s law is the higher law and the officials should have known that and the fact that they arrested him just proves...

Further into the text in the Resolutions section you'll read that the writer's of the Nauvoo Expositor also decried: • The real estate speculation which the leaders of the church have participated in under the guise of temple construction funds, investment, and insurance. (Resolved 6, 9, 10) • The s...

Have you ever felt inclined to read the 1844 singled edition of the Nauvoo Expositor? There is a scanned archive of the document available on archive.org which you can access here . If you take the time to read this fine publication then you will witness for yourself that those who decried the actio...

Since finding new order mormon and the loving members of this community ten years ago while on my mission I have continued my pursuit of understanding faith and God. The Mormon Transhumanist Association has helped broaden my horizons, along with the LDS/Mormon Anarchist communities. Without faith an...

Hey, I was looking for the old forums where I posted of enduring my crisis of faith while being a missionary. This has always been a wonderful and caring community, so I hope to return some of the kindness I have received (:
