A BYU SP I think...

Oh ugh. They are both going to talk. I bet Sis. Nelson is going to say something homophobic.

Awe.... I really hope it is crazier than that. Like, I hope he is going to make everyone covenant not to use the internet to view non-correlated church info.

Once you start to say "yeah, I'm not so sure" or "your theory of living might be dangerously damaging" seems to be when you face a real crisis of am I in or not. That was the fork in the road, at least for me. It's where the real struggle began. Lots of mormons will be put off by things but it's an...

Elder Packer: pulls out his Motorola flip phone, extends the antenna with his teeth, and starts to type up a text using the number keypad. Elder Uchdorf: pulls out his iPhone 7, clears his throat, and says to Siri, "Tweet the following message to my followers, "An airplane is like zay fine vimmon, ...

Here is just one of the many gems: Christianity itself hinges upon the question, “Was Joseph Smith really a prophet?”   I would have to say Christianity itself hinges upon the question: Jesus? "Who's your daddy?" :lol: :lol: :lol: I can't believe I read that whole thing. I love how there are like 4...

Okay here is how I would handle this. It's a horribly arrogant topic meant to produce a nauseating self gratifying talk. But I think you could put a NOM spin on it. Start off by saying something like: " The greatest blessing is serving others." "Because we are members of Christ's true church we have...

Congrats on your grandbaby!!! Meanwhile, the only "primary" sources they quote are the Bible and GBH? Are you kidding me? Unfreakingbelievable. You've got to admit though, GBH is smooth!!!! . . . the fact that there were superstitions among the people in the days of Joseph Smith is no evidence whate...

Baby steps! That is awesome that he is talking and hopefully over time he will make even more connections. I think some shelves have to slowly erode instead of breaking outright. I thought about this thread the other night when I watched the episode about the forced abortions. So heartbreaking. And ...

Blessings of Membership - Shame, indoctrinate or be a second class citizen, Oh, but if you are a woman, or gay, or a minority, you get to be a second class citizen no matter what. Tough topic though. Poor Mrs. Linked. At least she doesn't have to give a talk on a Rasband talk. I had to do that once...

He does kind of have a "sweet Mormon grandpa" vibe. And it says he was an orthodontist. So he has worked in the medical field. Maybe that will help.

I really hope Senator K********* isn't "church broke." That was a great letter. I didn't realize death by opioid overdose was that big of a problem in Utah. It is senseless and sad that so many people are suffering and dying when there is a solution available. Also ((Hugs)). It sounds like you are g...

Well that's a step in the right direction. I remember watching a Mormon Stories with D. Michael Quinn and he was telling about having to go clean up the aftermath of the "baseball baptisms" in England. It was so messed up. The missionaries set up a baseball club and then told the kids in the club th...

So yesterday was my first time in Sunday School in 7 years. And it was soooo boring. But I guess going from a group of 9-11 year olds constantly telling me about minecraft, and school/sibling drama, to a group of exhausted adults who really don't want to be there; it's bound to boring. I knew the le...

Nice!

I now crave the deeper relationship with her and have been working towards developing that between us. She’s been opening up to me more. If this life is all we have I want to make the most of it. I want to live it with her and our kids. That is beautiful. I'm glad things are working out for you guy...

Wasn't there always that one super spiritual suck-up in religion classes?

Or consecrated oil, or bread and water that have been blessed with priesthood power. It's all magic. Just not magic you are familiar with.

This thread is a great idea Emower. It will help us all fulfill our "calling" as NOMs. And Brent and others with GD teaching experience can help us figure out the most effective way to present our NOM points of view. It's time for us NOMs to unite and make Gospel Doctrine 2017 one hell of a year. :D
