Jesus's men will be in there in suits preaching trickle down religion and quietly celebrating the new 24 story Skyscraper in SLC and the and most important pillar of the church - real estate development.

My wife was similar, but would listen simetimes, and over time she was out. We now enjoy a hike and wine on sunday. One thing that helped her was to see just how uncristian and hypocritical mormons can be. The gospel of love is the gospel of rules, gossip and ladder climbing. Try and hang in. It will happen, just wait for church members themselves to do stupid stuff then just sit back and let

If you think man is not the cause try this: go outside and look at all the plants in your area. The earth is covered with them. Plants take CO2 from the air and keep the CO2 in balance, but human burning of fossil fuels has overwhelmed the system and the concentation of CO2 has risen 33% in 50 years. As a result of the 33% rise in CO2 temperature has gone up. It takes real mental gymnastics to

1. It's the only true church, yet most people are not Mormon. If its so great and obviously right why don't people see it. Since I believed God loves everyone equally this bugged me a lot. 2. Science and religion - this lead to questioning not only the flood, Adam and Eve etc., but also Book of Mo, Book of Abe etc.. the dominoes fell hard with the CES letter 3. In church it always bugg

Each generation also believes the prophesies about the second comming. It's been at least 5 or 6 generations and still no Jesus. Looks like either Jesus doesn't give a ×#!$ about bible prophesy or the prophesy is bull !#$/.

Free entry to the holy club house with access to the handshakes and funky outfits. That just can't happen. Too many people have been paying to play for way too long. However, I could see a maximum pay option. Once you have paid in a certain amount you are good to go. Kind of like free or really cheap ski and golf for old geezers. It could be a new kind of badge - look at me - I have p

Good point. He is sitting in Plato's cave and just can't understand why those who left the cave and see the light of freedom can be happy in the real world.

This also brings up the idea of income inequality which is very destructive to individuals and the economy as a whole. If kids of tithers can't go to college because mom and dad pay tithes instead of tuition it becomes harder for them to move up? If they think God will bless them they may be waiting a long time. The upper echelons get richer and richer while average Joe tither get pushed farth

You can pay your kids tuition for a year or buy them an old car. The Mormon approach to Tithing is evil and NOT FAMILY FRIENDLY.

Recently my cousin and his wife went on mission. My cousin's wife is super TBM and had a revelation they needed to go on a mission they could not afford. To make the mission happen they asked for donations, sold her tupperware collection (no joke) and what really annoys me is they called my mother who is almost 90, has dementia and very high living costs for full time care AND ASKED FOR MONEY f

This all seems to have blown-up even more after the gay marriage issue was settled. This is a huge thorn in the side for Ark believing crazies and Mormons etc. They always said is was a sign that Jesus is a commin. No Jesus yet, no calamities, no nothing other than the religious nut jobs want a law allowing them to discriminate, hate and prop up their cults.

I'm glad she is calling them out on polygamy, but I don't why she wants to play both sides. The summary in the web reference above includes this: "In beautiful and loving ways, Carol Lynn shares reasons for seeing this conclusion about polygamy as an error of Brother Joseph’s as the most forgiving and healing stance toward it we can take, and one that she believes Joseph himself would

Humans are instinctively good. The evil comes from the conflict between the instinct to be good and the consciousness that evolved after the instinct was in place. The constant conflict between the genetic orientation to be good and the human consiuosness is what leads to good and evil or the human condition. IN short, humans are psychological basket cases. However, if you know this you can de

The Three Nephites/Bigfoot move around helping people. The Lord won't allow the three Nephites/Bigfoot to ever be captured and when Jesus comes again each of the Nephites/Bigfoot will take their place with the head Bigfoot (John) as a GA!

Miller Uhrey did not say they found the answer to life. They just said some of the building blocks of life (amino acids) were present on the early earth. Their work has been incorrectly interpreted and has been repeated. No one knows exactly how it started. Stuart Kauffman and others are working on creating life from the lifeless (elements). Their work is referenced here. https://www.ed

Before we finally stopping going to church our youngest daughter was asked about her goals in life etc., in a young women's class. The obvious answer they wanted and most kids gave was - I want to be a wife and mother - However, my wonderful kid said "I want to get an education and I'm not sure if I ever want to get married and have kids." The YW teacher then told my wife about
