Re: Asked to pray in church
That's an opportunity well used, HIPS. After my disaffection I really started dreading public prayer. Finally I declined to accept the offer and I have never been asked since. It almost makes me feel like my bishop really is inspired.

Re: The leaked videos
I'm not sure they were really listening to the presenters as much as trying to make sure there was no chance of them being gay.

Re: Different First Visions Accounts Shouldn't Challenge Your Faith - Whatever
When I hear the older dudes in HPG telling amazing, miraculous stories from their mission 50 years ago, in extreme detail, right down to word-for-word dialog, I always wonder what REALLY happened. Same with the official FV story. I think we need look no further than the before and after appearance o...

Re: What I wish I would have done differently
I wish I had realized sooner that the problem was not with me - that it wasn't my fault the church seemed so messed up to me. I blamed myself for not being adequately faithful or worthy when I was losing my testimony. I was disappointed with myself that I couldn't be a stronger example of a faithful...

Nice to meet you!
I'm glad to see the Introductions forum is back. Since we don't have our old introductions anymore it would be nice to have people write a brief recap of their story.
What do you think?

Re: Mrs. Hagoth is reading RSR
That is great news Hagoth. Is RSR sold at Deseret book? https://deseretbook.com/p/joseph-smith-rough-stone-rolling-richard-l-bushman-5351?variant_id=104298-paperback It even got a four star rating, plus this 1-star review: Bushman obviously spent much time in researching for this book however he wa...

Re: Konfession Time!
As noted, I was Kishkumen on the old board. I've adopted a new name for variety of reasons. We're just glad you're back! Confessions: I discovered hard cider at a pub in Ireland. I had one every night go wind down from a hard day's work. Had a cocktail at an open bar at a wedding with Mrs Hagoth. S...

Re: Mrs. Hagoth is reading RSR
Well, the problem with RSR is that it´s being gentle and kind on JS. It does not bare all the facts. It´s glossing over quite a lot. Or put better: It sweeps stuff under the rug, but then points out: don´t mind the mess, and the lumps under the carpet. I agree. But it is a step toward a more realis...

Re: My NOM Testimony
Amen Deepthinker. I agree with your thoughts about certainty, so I wouldn't suggest you change it. As I told my bishop, certainty is what makes it possible for people to strap on bomb vests and walk into crowded markets. What we need in this world is a lot less certainty. You're brave to do this and...

Mrs. Hagoth is reading RSR
No prompting from me at all. She just took it down from my shelf one day and started reading. Got about 20 pages in and set it aside. I thought, well, so much for that, but a week later she picked it up and started reading again. I'm acting kind of disinterested until she hits a WTF topic and wants ...
