NOM

Uchtdorf stands as one of those restore the Church potentialities rather than one who assists it into steady decline. Depends on what you mean by "restore". Or what he would restore it to. I don't think there's much that can be done to halt it's steady decline. I'm secretly hoping Oaks will make it...

A former state legislator observed to me that it seemed VERY convenient just before he had to give depositions. Maybe Thom Harrison or one of his gang saw evil spirits entering through the invisible hole in the top of Elder Ballard's head, and got the message out that it would be a favor to him to ...

Great memory Jfro. I'm listening to the podcast and around the 30 minute mark they discuss that very National Geographic article. 8-) The irony is staggering- BOM apologist: "24,000 year old DNA supports the Book of Mormon?!?" WTH. :roll: This is what I find amusing, the desperation to easily brush...

When children, adolescents, or adults bear their testimonies, what is being done? You may hear "beyond a shadow of a doubt" or "I know this church is true" so many times you begin to pair the speakers with the sacred yet personal truths they are going through. This can be very dangerous unless you ...

Do not worship the human form, man or woman, or any beast or thing, instead of worshipping the living God. Everything on Earth is a tool and a gift. To bow to any other person or thing is dishonoring the creator. Give reverence to God in all things and for all creation. How many elders in the churc...

But his wife was even saltier.

Good one! LOL

That story about Lot just proves that the bible was definitely written by narcissistic men.

Bednar is the one! I'm convinced he's so narcissistic he drinks the koolaid and really believes it. I can't decide who the other one would be, probably Rasband.

I was just thinking about the whole Moses OT narratives this week and wondering how ill supported those stories are with archeological and historical evidence. Thanks for the post!

There is always some man telling us we misunderstand. And that *spirit* children will not require 9 months of pregnancy and *spirit* children are not created through physical bodies having sex and bla bla bla. Here's how it works. Men get to have sex as often as they want. More sex just means more ...

The fear of genital removal really is problematic only for men. The ability to spiritually procreate and populate endless planets is sold as a reward. Gonna need that penis because it’s a tool for success.

So that's the real reason dear leaders put Min's penis back on in the BoA!

"God says 7 1/2. That must be the number temples I must announce today"

"Hey, what are these notes tucked under the brim? I Nephi..."

LMAO!

Exactly!

Reminded me of an old Steve Martin routine where he's talking about Las Vegas shows:
"Wow, look at the t*ts! There must be 57 t*ts up there!"

What comes to mind when I hear that scripture, the practice the Catholic church started with the celibacy of their clergy. The idea that you are married to the church and none other. The mormonism madness is just that: a little mystery (gods ways are not your ways) to create some wow factor and spec...

It's like a gringo pretending they invented tacos. Its like a theater major pretending they wrote Shakespeare's plays. Be careful what costumes you wear this Halloween kiddos... some cultures don't appreciate those who dress up in another's clothes. Dressing up in someone else's clothes. Wolves in ...

Being one of the top leaders in the wealthiest cult corporation on the planet, becoming friends with a popular mormon who had your same last name and was using his psychic girlfriend to talk to dead mormon prophets, while he was secretly abusing women and girls and using your name to make money. We ...

...Richard Bushman and his wife, who I consider quite knowledgeable people on the subject of JS, and he mentioned that he was working on this project. I've read "Rough Stone Rolling" a few times and I think that Bushman probably held back some punches in that book, but he sure threw a few as well. ...

Oh, but just a few years ago Russel B. was happy to go to Israel and walk were Jesus walked, "standing very near to where He may have stood." In that same year visiting his dear friend Timmy B., to "learn more about what he had learned regarding Nephi's vision of these early Pilgrims..." Because, ya...

Beetbox and I went camping with those guys once! Amazing experience worshipping at the Temple of the Sun!

That was indeed one of the most fulfilling temple days I've ever had!

Thanks for sharing this Moksha. I'm glad to see more members, recognizing the toxic culture of TSCC, outside all the facts against the history and dogma. I'm guessing a lot of these women will be less afraid now to ask more questions, dig a little deeper and perhaps pull on the historical and truth ...

They will be hearing from my lawyers.

Would that be the law firm of McFunguy and McCosmo?

The angst I feel over mormons abusing the word "Celestial" is probably equivalent to the angst conservative TBMs and their billionaire old guys feel about the gay community stealing the rainbow from Noah.
