"By their ________ shall ye know them"

This is for encouragement, ideas, and support for people going through a faith transition no matter where you hope to end up. This is also the place to laugh, cry, and love together.

This was one of the weird surprises when I visit Utah. There are a surprising number of billboards along the freeway advertising cosmetic surgery. Surely this must simply be all the feminists, intellectuals, and homosexuals in Utah causing this demand.
Well ya know...in order to fulfill BOM prophesy, the COB would have used pills or surgery to turn the natives into a white an delightsome people, since baptizing them didn't work.

When I first read the title of this thread I immediately thought "Sh!t", but let me be a bit more verbose and say:
By their crazy bat-sh!t non-correlated factual history shall ye know them.
Maybe I'll get a bumper sticker with that on it.

I'll buy one of your bumper stickers.

I want to thank you all for playing along and for saying hello.

On a sidenote, I watched a short clip of some of my Nommish friends gathered around the edge of a very active volcano (crazy, I know!) in Ethiopia. They were looking for something to throw into the bubbling lava. They took off their garment tops and threw them in and they burst into flames. I was feeling quite jealous because I felt like that is the ultimate way to liberate oneself of garments.

By their glowing eye shall ye know them.

By their NHM shall ye know them.

By the solid gold plumbing fixtures in the Temple executive bathroom shall ye know them.

By their real estate and business holdings, stocks, and bonds shall ye know them.

By their chariot-pulling tapirs shall ye know them.

By the vegetables in their Jell-O salads shall ye know them.
Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

Well I agree with many of these, I don't know what you mean by glowing eye, neither do I recognize NHM. Would you explain please? Thanks much moksha!

Glowing eyes, as well as an attenuated bass voice, are signs one has been inhabited by a symbiote, such as, well... that thing you are not supposed to deny or risk outer darkness. Glad I caught myself before I could say it.

NHM? See here for further details: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=633

By their passive aggressive childish behavior shall ye know them.

I'm hoping Mrs Misbehaved jumps on to share this story - while visiting her family this last weekend, her father (who is handicap and can barely walk) faked falling down in an effort to get sympathy/guilt so she would attend church with him and her mom.

“By their ‘prophet/profit’ that eerily has many similarities to evil corporation president on The Simpsons shall ye know them.”

So many parallels between those two characters.

By their coding style shall ye know them.

Can you expound on this one? I'm not a professional code monkey, but I do dabble on occasion.

By their appologetics
By their factual history
By their false truth claims
By their indoctrinational methods
By their state governmental influence
By their litigation/legal activities
By their assets

My understanding is that plastic surgery is cheaper in Utah than in other places so the practice thrives here - not all customers come from Utah/are Mormon.

There are 2 Gods. One who created us. The other you created. The God you made up is just like you-thrives on flattery-makes you live in fear.

Believe in the God who created us. And the God you created should be abolished.
