Re: A quick update

Is everyone as thankful for Red Ryder's remarks as the Nephites were that Tapirs were included on Noah's Ark, or that the Church was to have done the bulk of its land purchases in a stealthy manner?

Re: Keeping up with Trump

And certainly stop blaming others for not wanting a democratic process when in fact you wish to no longer have credible elections. Trump's desire to remain in power despite losing the election should concern us all. Pushing the Big Lie means you do not wish for credible elections. You want Trump be...

Question on Mormon Cooking

Back in the 18th-19th Century, foods that were highly spiced, especially with capsicum were known as "deviled". Examples are deviled eggs, and deviled bones (our most current version is Buffalo wings... and yes, for any readers from La Verkin Utah, buffalo do indeed have wings). That leads me to my ...

Re: A quick update

Thank you, Red Ryder for your thoughts. The truth of the Church is to be found in the wonderful kindness of its members.

Re: Keeping up with Trump

This here is why people want an asshole for president. Offer them a corrupt dictator like Trump, eh? No. They want someone that will tell those clowns to fuck off. The exact fucking opposite of what you just said. But your gaslighting is still darling, wee penguin. The MAGA Q-Anons who wish to end ...

Re: Psychedelics in the Beehive conference

But considering that they are still sending members to Visions of Glory therapists (a friend of mine was referred to Thom Harrison's network just last week) that's probably wishful thinking. If the Church had some means of controlling the psychedelic visions to the point that it was assured of regu...

Re: Keeping up with Trump

But maybe you acknowledge that Trump is an asshole. If so, thats progress. I think it is a bit of a reversal that you are acknowledging that Trump is an asshole. Let's add a Supervillain and someone not to be trusted with the Presidency. Trump encouraging Putin to invade a NATO country is further p...

Tithe or you'll be burned?

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/kRsimOH4Mjc Pay us or you'll be burned!

Why do Mormon leaders say you will be burned if you do not pay them tithing money? Is this from the Prophecy of the Ensign Peak Investments?

Re: The church and Equal Rights for women

I was barely a teen in 77, but I'll never forget the name Sonia Johnson and how much the church demonized her for standing up for ERA. One benefit from being so damn old is that I attended that meeting in the Salt Palace where the Elders held up signs telling the Relief Society sisters how to vote ...

Re: The church and Equal Rights for women

I am uncertain whether they would seek to use the Relief Society en masse to vote against women's rights today, however, the Church has let it be known that women should not sit on the stand unless they are giving a talk or a prayer. Church leaders would recoil from the suggestion of equal rights fo...

Re: Communication skills

Reminds me of the Mehrabian Study in the 70s, Alas. When communicating emotionality, it's what... 52% body language, 47% tone, and 7% the actual words? I'm sure I have the percentages off slightly, but that's the gist. Clarifying is crucial. Like are they mentally performing the perambulations from...
