Re: Something Undefined Cannot Be True
My waistline is not well defined (it seems to grow and contract on a daily basis) and yet it most definitely exists. Maybe there is something more to truth than an exacting definition. This line of thought gets even murkier when we talk about subjective truths. What is true for a penguin may not be...

Re: Radio Free Mormon Podcast
I am trying to find this. When I look up Radio Free Mormon on itunes, it comes up with Mormon History Guy. Is that correct?

Possible. Mocha's normally taste a lot more coffee to me, but I am no expert.

Re: My Changing Palate
I reticently discovered a new way to make cocoa that people here may be interested in. Instead of using hot water to mix you cocoa, use black coffee. The sweetness of the cocoa cancels out the bitterness of the coffee. The end result is something that tastes like a dark chocolate cocoa.

Re: My Changing Palate
I don't know how much me trying to eat a better diet in general, leaving the church, or just getting older but it is the same for me.
Often at night, instead of desert, I want cheese and crackers.

Anyone know where I can get Hanukkah or Kwanzaa carts to send?

Re: Joseph Smith's FamilySearch page
When I first started down the rabbit hole, I looked JSJ up on Family search to see if it would help disprove anything. To my surprise, it listed 55 wives for him, although 8 were sealed to him after his death. Over the last few years it has varied quite a bit. At one time it was down to 25 with 4 of...

Re: Elder Oaks - encouraging holiday insensitivity?
I wonder if he (at least unconsciously) does not acknowledge the existence of any religions outside of Christianity. You either believe in Christ or a godless heathen out to destroy you.

Re: Deseret news article on doubt
One of the church's biggest fears is that something they deem bad get normalized. Race, gender preference, etc. Once people get to know someone the church has declared to be "evil" the person's ideas change and grow to accept the person. Eventually, they decide that the church is in fact wrong in de...

Re: Did everyone survive the holidays?
My holiday was great. Even finished up the Christmas shopping Sunday night.
The worst part was 5:00 AM Monday morning when my alarm goes off for the first time in 4 days.

Re: SM Talk....
When you get up to talk, say that you were assigned one conference talk, but the spirit moved you to ignore that one and to give a talk based off a completely different talk and then give a talk based on your favorite conference talk. You are not having to lie about anything, you give a talk you wan...

Closing the Little Factory
So the church is retiring BKP's infamous "Little Factories" Talk.
LDS Church ‘retires’ Mormon apostle’s ‘little factory’ pamphlet -SL Trib
Okay, by retiring they are stopping printing and sale of the pamphlets and taking the talk off their website, but are keeping it under their conference talks.

Re: New financial policy in Europe
I wonder if this is an underhanded attempt to save money by the church. By having such heavy bureaucracy, they can increase the likely hood that a payment request will be rejected. They can use the excuse of improper paperwork or something, but in the end, the can limit how much money goes out. If t...

Re: Withdrew from a religion class
Since you were in two classes this semester, you can be honest about it.

By dropping that one class, you can focus on your others. There is no need to ...
