Re: Elder Ballard gives tithing records to Tim Ballard
In his letter, Beck says, "The Lord will clean out his own house first." Does that mean the General Authorities who are not on board with Tim Ballard, and Visions of Glory have to be purged? Beck wrote that while he still figured Tim was innocent. When he (Beck) woke up to the fact that Ballard had...

Re: Providence Reunions
And who is the authority making this clarion call? I may have missed it in Gen. Con.
Doesn't the greatness of the LDS church already cover all of these needs if "ministering" is being done properly? Doesn't ministering benefit members directly?

Re: Doomsday family from Arizona
The church would completely deny that they play ANY part in these tragedies, but they only lie to themselves. It's their crappy paradigm they promulgate to easily frightened people to goad them into paying their tithing.
Hinkley was right.
It's the biggest fraud ever foisted on the masses.

Recent Asian DNA influence in Americas
A new study finds DNA evidence that Asians were influencing Native American DNA as recent as 1500 years ago and vice versa. Apparently "Native American" DNA has been recovered in Asia recently. I think these guys were better seafarers than previously thought. I'm thinking ancient Israelites were alw...

Re: The Brigham Wheel
How about a medium sized saltwater aquarium with 15 large sea Groupers attempting to swim around in it? Big fish in a small pond so to speak. Some varieties of Grouper have the ability to change color and skin patterns depending on their surroundings.

Re: Does anyone tell the truth anymore
I've told my kids (all married now) that the time is here when the most precious thing to find will be the truth. It reminds me of an Old Testament scripture from Amos. 11. Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water...

Re: A positive thing about Utah
So the Native Americans/Indians originated these? What kind of flour do they use? Doubtful that they were “invented” by American Natives, as they are made with refined white flour. Alas is correct here. Here's a little history (sad) if anyone is interested. https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/63761...

Re: Ken Jennings a NOM?
Did you grow up believing in Heaven and Hell? Yeah! And, to some degree, I still do, perhaps more out of a sense of aesthetics than conviction. Like, wouldn’t it be so much nicer if there were something bigger? But, growing up in the Mormon faith, that’s a very complicated, esoteric Heaven that’s t...

Re: A positive thing about Utah
When I go on the "Rez" (reservation) or to the Powwows, I see fry bread done in both a savory and a sweet configuration. My mother, who was not raised Mormon was taught by my grandmother to make the sweet scones from when she was a child. Love both versions.

Re: Reasons to resign
Number 1. The church is phony and dishonest. Number 2. I resigned because as long as you are a member of record, the church usurps to itself the privilege of dealing with you how they see fit and on their terms......not yours.

Re: So Many podcasts, so little time.
I do a mixture of different podcasts as well. Depends mostly on whether I think I can learn something new. I doubt that there are many folks in that 65-85 age group that are watching these but the effect on 15-45 year olds must be devastating for the church. Leadership must be turning themselves ins...

That may be the way it is in some town in Utah but in other parts of the country the police and other organizations are prepared to help women and children in abusive situations. They can be sheltered. As a part of our "tithing", we now donate to a local shelter for abused women and children. They d...

Re: Another Utah man kills family
Interesting that the "in-laws" frequently seem to be involved in these cases. President Spencer W. Kimball used to say that after a couple were married the in-laws needed to butt out and let the couple solve their own problems. Which I agree with totally. In-laws are not experts or professionals.
