Re: Marital strife
That's great advice, Red! I'll have to bring this up with her. She doesn't know I'm on this forum yet though, is that bad?! No - I wouldn't bring up this forum tbh... it's a good place for you to have some community and if you tell your wife before she's ready for a place like this it could really ...

Re: Joseph Smith “sexual predator” label?
FWIW I think Joseph Smith was a sexual predator. I don't think he was a pedophile - that has very specific (technical) meaning and I don't think that's an appropriate label *and* it turns anyone off that might otherwise be willing to listen to the problems with Joseph Smith. But he was a predator - ...

Re: Historical details do not carry the saving power…
This is a perfect example of why I don't trust my kid to be taught at church - the idea that they're telling them to ignore everything they can see and read to focus on a box that you won't ever actually see if just awful. I have a feeling that if you showed this to a Mormon and changed the wording ...

Re: Marital strife
So sorry! Like Linked I don't have any great advice since I'm in a similar situation, but definitely feel for you since I know my wife reads some of the craziest apologetics and assumes everything else is unreliable. If nothing else hopefully you can vent here and maybe take some of the edge off, bu...

Re: NOMference Sunday Afternoon Spring 2023!!
The wife’s aunt lives there. They are extremely happy today. They admitted they have no idea how it will be staffed because they can’t get enough workers for the DC temple. They go 1 day a week to work in DC now. That will end when they get there own. One of the greatest ironies of Mormonism is tha...

Re: NOMference Saturday Morning Spring 2023!!
We haven't heard from Rusty yet, which is weird he usually likes to take the stage at least once per session. But since he couldn't talk, every speaker made sure to completely kiss the inside and outside of his a$$. And now it is nap time. Didn't RMN have to sit last time during his talks? I'm wond...

Re: Konference Predictions
My running theory is that Nelson had a handful of things he wanted to do in order to cement his legacy and he burned through them quickly because he's so old... now he's going to be more on the 'adjustment' period where they just make minor changes and proclaim that as divine "inspirations" as Nelso...

I just find it funny that the Utah flag now features a symbol that came from the Masons.

Re: The verdict is in... the Book of Mormon is true!
This reminds me of the dude on Twitter that said he asked Chat GPT to write the Book of Mormon with a whole ton of prerequisites and Chat GPT said they couldn't do it so the only conclusion therefore is that the BoM is true and joseph could've never written it. The wise, old saying still holds true:...

Re: What would have happened if JS was successful in selling the BoM copyright?
Also, what did Joseph think someone else would do with the copyright? I mean, if the guy who actually claimed to have discovered and translated a gold book of scripture couldn't get people to buy it in an environment like the Burned Over District, who in Canada would be delusional enough to think t...

Re: Nemo's letter
2. How likely is it that the board of directors will demand an immediate super secret ex-communication of Brother Nemo before its April Conference? No chance - as stupid as they are, I think they are well aware that excommunicating Nemo would elevate him exponentially and would expose that many mor...

Re: The Great Apostasy didn’t really happen according to new Maxwell Institute book.
It's crazy that this is coming from the Maxwell Institute because as has already been said in the thread, if you take this one step further the entire need for Mormonism crumbles and undercuts Joseph Smith's First Vision claims as well. Not that most members will ever read the book, but it's amazing...
