NOM

Sigh. This is giving me fits right now, can't sleep. Sunday is our day with DS and DDIL, it was supposed to be a birthday thing, but now its been usurped by the Nelson fireside. I offer my deepest sympathy, Slavereeno. The Flying Spaghetti Monster smiled upon me and none of my children actually wan...

Don’t you believe in miracles? You know how hard those tickets are to come by? Don’t you want to listen to the Prophet? The Prophet of God? Which section are you sitting in? Asking for a friend who may have heard the above quotes from his/her spouse! :lol: At first I thought this was an ad for scal...

My two kids are in the same boat. -not blessed -not sealed (since they are adopted) -not baptized I think my daughter's name is spelled incorrectly. From what I understand, when the kids turn 18. They drop off the records. Annoying, but I get it. My kids went to primary for awhile. So that is how th...

Most of my materials "disappeared" during our last move. I did keep a few journals, but I don't like reading them. I regret a lot of my mission, it feels like two years lost when my family's business needed me the most... Perhaps I made someone's day at Goodwill with my 1980's copy of Mormon Doctrin...

I appreciate your point of view, but I'm just not seeing it where I live in Utah. Cache and Box Elder Counties are filled with extremist conservative viewpoints, and I just don't see our state representatives casting moderate votes. They are "church broke" like the rest, which means that "officiall...

Yep - I know people have reasons to hate the church, but arson or vandalizing or creating stunts in church property is never OK. Hopefully they catch whoever it is and get to the bottom of it, but definitely sucks to see. I had a friend say on FB, "they should find the people and prosecute for hate...

Utah politics are unbalanced. There's an interesting history as to how the state evolved into a republican majority. It's no surprise the church as always been a big part of the government in this state, but I think most would be surprised as to just how much the church controls it, especially wher...

So the question is that even though the population that claim to be LDS is only 55%, why do they keep electing so many Mormons? At some point, the voters have to take credit for keeping this going.

How many are NOM, or just go for appearances...

Raylan, did you have any experience with the former LDS Governor of Arizona, Evan Mecham?

I only know he was impeached. He was definitely a good ol' boy

I saw this this morning, it wasn't surprising. https://www.standard.net/news/government/lds-members-account-for-nearly-percent-of-utah-state-legislature/article_9011463b-512e-5220-a5a3-24d68a2a7acb.html I am actually thinking it isn't such a bad thing. My experience from living in Arizona has taught...

It's that passive/aggressive behavior that mormonism has perfected, along with the inherent belief that they are 100% correct in all things. Something like this popped up on DW's feed when she used a clever joke to announce she is a Norman (no longer Mormon). They tried to let her know that the Chu...

Could your DW be saying this just to get you active again.

Sorry...2biz already suggested this. I'd just ask the wife to avoid one on one conversations.

Appearance of evil right?

It probably feels nice to get a little flirt...can't say that has happened to me in a long, long time...

After your done, make an invoice for your time and at tithing settlement staple it to your yearly statement. Just say, "it all adds up."

Favorite story in NOM this year.

DD came home from school early, mostly for monthly girl reasons but also because she was upset about the rumors spread by this snotty little beauch. Our DD has had depression and issues with suicide in the past and continues to struggle socially at the high school. DW and I discussed sending the pa...

The guy probably lives off of kale smoothies and no sugar, still snow skis and still has a full time job that is very taxing (tons of travel). He is also crazy intelligent. He may live to be 120 years old. If this barber can do it, why not the Lord's Anointed? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201901...

Just tell the bishop you're having a same-sex marriage on Saturday. That will end the child baptism harassment... My friend brought up a point, he is in a mixed faith marriage and having to figure out baptisms. He compared having a baptism at 8 in a mixed faith marriage, in the same light as the ba...

Rubin and Ed, that brings back old memories. I love it.

Anyone remember the old days of Stake Missionaries? They would wear their badges to all meetings, I even had a neighbor who wore his all over town as well. I remember walking in on a Stake Missionary meeting as a kid, and looking around at the weirdness of the badges and the meeting. Slowly backing ...

By their scripture totes

By their soda drive thru
