Which one would represent a golden convert opportunity?
My guess is that the orangutan is the most likely, while the howler monkey would always be discussing politics in the Elders Quorum.

Re: Replacing the New Order Mormon
Or do we let this place go the way of all the others before it and let it rest? Things to think about but for now we’ve committed to another year. I want this board to continue as much as I want the Church to continue. The Church produces some wonderfully kind people. Many of my best neighbors have...

Re: Church and State; Utah and Texas
Even if public schools guaranteed wall space for every faith tradition's tenets, that is not what American public schools should be about. We are not supposed to promote a public religion. The fascist movement in America is presenting itself as Christian Nationalism. It would be better if that Logan...

Re: How do you define Mormonism?
Mormonism has many sides. Two of those sides are:
1. A hopeful framework to worship God.
2. A multinational corporation with a church attached for tax purposes.

Re: Pope, Gay blessing, Conversion opportunity
We like him even if some of his jokes aren’t funny. Sometimes I write with savoir-faire, sometimes I resort to flipperancy (penguin joke). No one can please all audiences, nor should we have to please everyone. Our common humanity draws us together and hopefully, this place of togetherness can be b...
Re: MLK
More about Mormons and Martin Luther King from the Utah Historical Quarterly. It is an interesting and informative read.

Re: MLK
I thought it being Mlk day maybe we should reflect on how the church didn't like him and called him a communist etc etc. I don't have any qoutes or articles about this so I am hoping others can jump in and help on this important subject. I am 63 so I barely remember any Mlk speeches. Thanks Martin ...

Re: Pope, Gay blessing, Conversion opportunity
The "The New Apostolic Reformation" (NAR), not Mormonism, is where all the fanatics are headed.. the new prophet and apostles... Scary as ##***##. The current Republican Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, is a member of that Christian Nationalist movement. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Apostol...

Re: Pope, Gay blessing, Conversion opportunity
I have challenged the specific content of your posts, and you respond with lies and accusations rather than addressing the questions or topic. I don't think that is what NOM is about. I wish I could get a ruling from the moderators. You are now representing yourself as both Mormon-friendly and a te...

Pope, Gay blessing, Conversion opportunity
Ever since the Pope decided that priests can bless same-sex couples, so long as the blessing does not resemble a marriage ceremony; the blessing is not to be treated as a sacrament, as marriage is between men and women in the church. This has been disconcerting to many Priests and even parishioners ...

Re: Keeping up with Trump
Maybe you can help me out. Moksha doesn’t hate the people he doesn’t know but he disparages them and you think that is funny? Please knock off the stupid ad hominems. Saying that I doubted the Evangelicals would support Al Capone in the 1930s is not disparaging them. If anything it is praise for fo...

Re: Keeping up with Trump
I wonder if during the trial of Al Capone in the 1930s the drinkers of America were tempted to elect him to be either mayor of Chicago or perhaps even the Republican nominee for the Presidency. Do you think they cared if he was a gangster and murderer? I can't imagine the Evangelicals of that era w...
