I want to bear to you my solemn testimony that I KNOW beyond a
shadow of a doubt that 2 + 2 = 5. I know this is true because
the spirit of God has told me and not of any worldly learning.

Oh, I know, there will be some who say, "but, Baura, everyone
knows that 2 + 2 = 4." Yes I realize that the world goes its
own way and does not care about the things of the Spirit.
So-called intellectuals will dispute timeless truths; that seems
to be very popular these days. But when the Spirit of God speaks
to me is not to be questioned.

2 + 2 = 5.

God said it, I believe it, and that settles it.

Can't argue with that. I am so embarrassed to think I ever thought 2 + 2 = 4. Satan is so clever.

Exactly. Those faithful kolobians with eyes to see and ears to hear would know that just because 2 & 2 are equal, it doesn't mean they're actually equal.

For example, a male 2 is actually worth 3, while a female 2 is only worth 2. They're equal, both being 2, but the male 2 is worth more in the eyes of god. Hence, 2 + 2 = 5.

Another example: A straight 2 is worth 3, while a gay 2 is only worth 2 in the eyes of the lord of saboath. So, 2 + 2 in that case = 5, as well.

If you don't have the spirit then that will all seem crazy. If you think that all seems crazy you probably just finished masturbating...

2+2=5 may not be mathematically accurate, but it's a moral truth that I adhere to. It's also part of my social heritage, and it's disrespectful to always be throwing 2+2=4 in my face. Please allow me my dignity.

LOL! and what revelations baura and kolobian received. I now know who the new profits are sent to lead and guide all of us.

Pray tell, with your insights, what new information do you see coming to the faithful in the new year 2014? And how do you think the Lard will help his floundering cult, er, I mean moron church, er, I mean mormon church?

May your new 2+2=5 Church lead us out of the quagmire we are in.

Well, I guess I can go ahead and let everyone know that when the church allows same-sex marriages in the temple, they won't actually be allowing same-sex marriages in the temple. See, that change will be heralded by a influx of female spirits into male bodies, so males will marry males, but one of the males will actually be a female spirit, and females marrying females will actually be marrying male spirits in female bodies.

It's all part of the plan, always has been. So it's not that they'll change their policy. Golly gee, no. It will be that the "spiritual marriage" will still be within kolobian guidelines. Upon resurrection the female spirits will get breeding cow bodies, and the vice versa.

Thus saith the lord. Ramen.

This makes complete sense. As we all know, our blood literally became Jewish when we were baptized into COJCOLDS. It doesn't matter that our physicians couldn't see it. God knew it, and I knew it too. I can see now that we've all always been inhabited by "jewish spirits". It makes sense that the plan would progress into the male/female spirit realm.

Well, I say that science will tell you otherwise, but I'm sure you'll just say I'm being swayed by Satan. :)

I already knew that 2 + x = 5, where x <> 3. Since the value of x was unknown, I knew that the statement was true.

Thank you for revealing that x = 2. All of the questions that I had have now been answered to my satisfaction. No need for further questions.

Gaining a testimony that 2 + 2 = 5 is not easy. It takes
commitment.

First you have to have the DESIRE that 2 + 2 = 5. Let this
desire work in you so that you can receive a portion of the
Spirit. Plant the seed that 2 + 2 = 5 in your heart, and if you
do not cast it out with unbelief, if you don't resist the spirit
of the Lord, the truth that 2 + 2 = 5 will grow in your heart,
and you will feel the truth of it swell within your bosom. But
you must nourish this seed of truth and not let it be defeated
by the evils of doubt or critical thought.

And when you feel it grow and swell in your bosom then you will
know that it is good. And if you know that it is good then you
will know that it must be true, for, as we all know, no false
ideas have ever given anyone a good feeling. Then you will have
a perfect knowledge that 2 + 2 = 5.

It's very simple.

Does that also mean that 4 + 4 = 10?

It might be, but we can't give a definitive answer to that question, given our limited human understanding. That's why it hasn't been revealed yet.

In any case, don't take it as an official church doctrine.

Lorenzo Snow taught that "Two plus two is as five once was and five is as two plus two once was"

It is a couplet really. I don't know that we teach it; it is not something we emphasize...

Can I use these new formulas when I am calculating my tithing? Because the way I see it, if we are mixing up 'spiritual' numbers, I should at least save some money. Therefore, 10% equals 5% with spiritual eyes right? Or even better 0%!!! Praise be to spiritual eyes and stuff!!

Omg. I literally just had these exact conversations with my sister who has been inactive for 15 years and is going back to the morg.

It's mind boggling how brainwashed Mormons are. Two hours of conversation I will never get back. Ugh

The whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
This applies to most things especially porn.

You must not confuse the things of the spirit with porn. In porn 2 + 2 could actually end up equalling 9. ; )

But you are definitely onto something with "The whole is greater than the sum of the parts." That saying is a perfect companion for "doubt your doubts."
