Thank you, River. Lemme know if you want to see my Book of Abraham essay response.

Oh yes! Please!

You know why Apostle Dale Redlund said to wear masks on December 7, don't you? https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.deseret.com/platform/amp/faith/2020/12/7/22158497/mormon-lds-church-masks-covid-19-coronavirus-christlike-love-pandemic-apostle-renlund Because on December 5 he and his wife were diagnose...

The only thing I learned is that I never wanted to see my dear sweet loving mother draw her thumb across her throat ever again. River I did learn one other thing. My all-knowing and loving Heavenly FATHER ground the concept in that I was "less than." The first decades of my marriage would have gone...

Hagoth, I read your very excellent dissection of the Book of Mormon gospel topic essay. You decimated it! 👏 At one point you called it a juggling act and I laughed out loud. This essay is Exhibit A for the hypothesis that the essays weren't meant to solve the problems encountered in each topic. They...

Again, SaidNobody, although I would have trouble agreeing with your positions, I respect them, and I appreciate you sharing them with us. It helps me to
better understand my extended family, whom I love very much.

Alas, as usual, you and I totally agree. Rocks and rivers (and plants and bugs and animals and ...) have a soul. And if anyone can relax in a mountain glade, smelling the tall pines, listening to the wind wave through the tops of the trees, watch the small fish darting around in the bubbling brook, ...

Several years ago, spouse and I gave each other two kinds of genetic tests for Christmas. One of the companies even keeps updating our ancestry as more information is gathered. The science in this area fascinates me. For example, we now know that one of Spouse's sub-haplogroups migrated to what is n...

My grandfather told me that every time he went to the temple, he learned something new and different. My grandfather, a life-long temple worker, told me the same thing. The only thing I learned is that I never wanted to see my dear sweet loving mother draw her thumb across her throat ever again. Ri...

These are the people who really understand what it's like to be sexually abused 13-year old girl, and to speak on her behalf. https://emp.byui.edu/SATTERFIELDB/Digital%20Pictures/Kimball%20Tanner%20Romney.jpg Well done, Hagoth, well done! 👏 And, as an aside, although I've seen you occasionally on s...

I started reading this thread in depth because of moksha's hilarious first post. (moksha, I've missed your humor.) I kept reading the thread because SaidNobody is articulating what my extended family believes. (They are much more likely to get their news from word of mouth or social media than from ...

He's kidding, right? Someone tell me he's kidding.

Unfortunately it's probably going to take another generation for this message to sink in for YW leaders to stop doing bug-in-the-milkshake object lessons, and for bishops to stop referring members to Kimball's book. The real problem is that the church will not directly deal with this, openly apolog...

Hagoth said, "11-year old primary girls should definitely know about it, because they're just a few month short of marrying age."

Besides being hilarious it's almost true. After all, I got my first polygamous proposal at the age of 15 ....

River

Corsair, wtfluff, moksha! So good to see you!

River

Thank you, gray, and especially hagoth and Ryder!

For anyone wondering, my tattoo is florid writing surrounded by roses. But when you decipher the writing it says End Patriarchy! I got it to celebrate my mentally leaving the church.

Alas reminded me a second time that NOM is back. Since I tried to reregister the first time I've got new eyes so it worked this time. I've missed this place, especially with so much times on my hands from being self quarantined since March. I've meet many of you IRL on FB since NOM 1.0 shuttered its...

Hi, River Morgan here. For those who didn't participate in the old NOM board, I'm a GOF* 😂 and mouthy to boot. i'm BIC and still a member of record, but out for almost a decade. I raised a family as a good Primary President mommy though and they are all still very much in, to my sorrow. I see proble...
