Re: Gratuitous violence in the BOM?
The thing to ask is if there is any archeological evidence for the great wars that are fought in the BoM. It would be interesting to see how they get around that.
Godless
Watching this fictional, dark themed Western on Netflix called "Godless". The main antagonist (deep sociopath) is a character who, as a young child, was part of the Fancher party that was massacred at Mountain Meadows. He was under 8 years of age and so spared of death but then raised by one Isaac H...

Re: Technical difficulties and safety certificate
Glad to see NOM back. Thought maybe the quasi-cult had sabotaged the website.

Re: Gratuitous violence in the BOM?
Does anyone know if that "If god commanded it" exemption clause was in the original text of the BoM? Or was it something added as part of the "re-editing" the occurred over the JS years to update the book to his evolving theology? Just checked. Original text reads the same. https://bookofmormoncent...

Re: Gratuitous violence in the BOM?
It's interesting there's no polygamy in the BOM; like the other thread Red started about predator vs opportunist. I guess we really don't know when JS first started thinking about polygamy; I'm guessing at a pretty young age if the stories about his bible study are true, but he did not write it up ...

Re: Gratuitous violence in the BOM?
I'm of the opinion the story of Shiz and Coriantumr was inspired by the Legend of Sleepy Hollow and the headless horseman. It was written in 1820 and is considered one of America's first classic spooky/horror stories. Quite popular in the culture. Joseph probably observed the general public being no...

Re: Joseph Smith “sexual predator” label?
I'm trying to remember the term used by the church for young men who have had multiple sex partners before their mission. If I recall, leadership drew a distinction between a young couple in love, who had "made a mistake" and a young man who had been "predatory" in his relationships with young women...

Re: Historical details do not carry the saving power…
The problem these idiots truly don't understand is that covenants and ordinances performed on earth by men, have no intrinsic saving power. In Christ's time the "ordinances" were burnt offerings and animal sacrifices. Mark 12:33 reads: "And to love him (God) with all the heart, and with all the unde...
Re: Alcohol?
I tried alcohol a few times as a teen. Nothing good ever came from those few times.
My younger brother is alcoholic and I've had to watch what it did to his life. Not a fun movie.

My in-laws, who fancy themselves as dyed-in-the-wool TBMs but are in reality cafeteria Mormons in a big way, would do better to call it the "Convenient Path".

I've always thought "Covenant Path" is nondescriptive.

Re: So... my friend was just promoted to General Authority
Does your friend have a white ceramic bowl and pitcher on display in their home? I haven't been inside his house since I learned about the sacred artifacts. He doesn't seem like the type to put them on display anyway. The ones I have seen (in use at the time) were a nice quality stainless steel. To...

They're like Walmarts now.
Mormonism: The Walmart version of salvation, only more expensive. Cheap religion at a high price.

Re: What's the point of Oaks sucking up?
The idea of sucking up to leadership MUST be reinforced to inferiors so that when it's Oaks' turn, no one will dare give him grief. It's the "get in line" principle. "I did it....you do it." This is the way the church operates and avoids the huge messes created when members gave Joseph Smith crap on...
