NOM

I copied this from a Wikipedia article about Jonathan Haidt: Moral elevation Main article: Elevation (emotion) With Sara Algoe, Haidt argued that exposure to stories about moral beauty (the opposite of moral disgust) cause a common set of responses, including warm, loving feelings, calmness, and a d...

I remember the aftermath of the 1967 war. The chatter in Rexburg was that it was "a sign of the times," and that the Second Coming was not far off- say about the year 2000.

Apologists need another N-h-m stone, or maybe a Stela 5.

Or maybe they'll just add "may be among the ancestors of the American Indians" to the BOM intro.

... but there probably is a shift in morality. Like drinking coffee or drinking alcohol reponsibly and being less strict about movie ratings. ... There is absolutely nothing "immoral" about the things mentioned in the above sentence/quote. Maybe you should do some simple math with your spouse: Acco...

I think I was about 16-17 when I became aware of Matt. 22:30 "In the heavens they neither marry or are given in marriage, but are as the angels in heaven." To my mind then, and now this was a clear contradiction to LDS teachings. Probably a year or two later I read an LDS explanation in Joseph Field...

Brigham Young: “There is not a man or woman, who violates the covenants made with their God, that will not be required to pay the debt. The blood of Christ will never wipe that out, your own blood must atone for it . . . ” (Journal of Discourses, vol. 3, p. 247; see also, vol. 4, p. 53-54, 219-220)....

Mitt Romney's family on national TV saying they weren't worried about the vote tallies because the Holy Ghost had testified to them that Mitt would win.

Wow. Is that still online somewhere?
I agree by the way, the Missouri/Zion message is as big a fail as it gets.

Mark Hofmann's father, Bill, being told by the Holy Ghost that Mark was innocent.

What would the Church do without lawyers..... and the Strengthening the Church Committee? This is so petty.

I'm cheating by posting this early Sunday morning, but predicting a tithing talk is 100% guaranteed.
PS: Thanks to Mopag (and others) for the talk reviews.

RFM's take.

I Loved the podcast. A very sweet young couple gets bludgeoned by TCJCOLDS/Kirton&McConkie. It was like killing a fly with a sledge hammer. The brother's printed testimony was appropriate. The Stake Pres. evidently overreacted. Kirton&McConkie's letter was embarrassingly strident and insensitive. It...

What would Joseph Smith say? O ye of little faith?

... Good and evil, and Mormons are the good guys and gals. Every one else- the bad guys and gals. That's a beauty for sure, but after all, we have a secret weapon- we made covenants. Zowy. What a weapon. Who needs sacrament trays when you have covenants? BigCovenant.jpg :lol: :lol: Yeah, we have th...

Does the BOM refute itself?

Anyone else notice the Mike Lee post about the rains at "Burning Man?"

"In the Church we are not neutral. We are one-sided. There is a war going on, and we are engaged in it. It is the war between good and evil, and we are belligerents defending the good. We are therefore obliged to give preference to and protect all that is represented in the gospel of Jesus Christ, a...

Satan had the only good lines: “They will be in my power.”

Best part: "Do not give advice unless you are asked for it."

Interesting Choice of Podcast. I'm just starting to listen to it.
