Re: Rumors?

Yeh well.....Lindsay said there is controversy about it because that testimony from Emma came through William McClelland who was branded an apostate. So, they discredit it. The same McLellin whose papers and journal have been long coveted by the Church. They were actually acquired by the Church in ...

Re: Rumors?

Here is a rumor hot off the press:
WASHINGTON - The Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote have teamed up and painted a picture of the Donald Trump Memorial Highway on a big rock. Being a fake road, Trump is bound to take it.

The episode on Fanny was interesting. There is a debate about whether she was a wife or not (if I remember what Lindsay said correctly).
So when Emma caught Joseph and Fanny in the haystack going at it, they may or may not have just performed a pantomime routine of a marriage ceremony?

M_bennett, think of us as a friendly group in search of the required therapy to make it through life. Pull up a couch and we can hook you up to the NOM analysis mainframe.

We are all in this together, so welcome!

Re: Church Security

You're more likely to die in a car accident driving to sit in the pews than you are likely to be shot by one of the "crazies" while you sit on the pew. Excellent point. Just remember some of those pew sitters are concealed carry permitters, so just don't sit in one of the pews they have reserved. "...

Mormon "agency" to support Evolution?

Mormons need not shy away from evolution, says BYU biologist Mormons believe in “eternal progression,” for example, and that the universe was organized from pre-existing matter, Steven L.

Re: Mormons don't believe in Jesus

If the Good Samaritan is on his way to pay his Mormon tithing and sees an injured man on the side of the road, should he spend that tithing on giving the injured man medical care, or pay his tithing? It would be fun to hear a debate on this question. I can envision the two champion debaters. Jesus ...

Re: Member made doctrines

We were admonished to "just love sparingly". That message from a current church talk has to be one of the saddest portents of all. Faith, hope, and charity/love was the bulwark of Christianity, with charity/love being above all else. We deserve better than a bizarro world version of this bulwark. M...

Coffee is the sacred elixir of consciousness.
Okay! Finally, we have a reason why coffee might be bad for Mormons.


If Mormons are coffee curious, they might want to try it in a form with known Mormon affinity: Look for Coffee-flavored Ice Cream in your local supermarket.
