I am loath to post a link to anything that is pro-morg, but it is the easiest way: http://lds.org/ldsorg/v/index.jsp?hideNav=1&locale=0&sourceId=c0a727cd3f37b010VgnVCM1000004d82620a____&vgnextoid=2354fccf2b7db010VgnVCM1000004d82620aRCRD It was the first sighting of that farkakte namebadge. It was also the first place that "The Cletus" jesus statue made its debut.

But in the past with TBMs I got them to at least listen by using quotes from GBH "This is either true or a fraud" At least you both have to agree on that point.

Because I had at this point acknowleged to myself that I was indeed GAY! Oh the horrors! I actually believed the morg lies and thought that the leaders at the Monkey Trauma Center would be able to see right through my soul. I had heard of the shock therapy at BYU and was scared to death of being called out! I never went to the local mormon leader to ask to go, one day after "church&q

http://360digest.com/tag/michael-hellickson/ Now, this one I actually knew back in singles ward. He was a smarmy ego maniac then and he is still. He went on his mission to Germany and when he came back he said his testimonkey in german for 6 months! Dipshit. The state of Wa just shut him and that wife of his down in September. Any idea how bad you have to be to have the STATE not only c

Let me preface by saying the whole thing was my fault. I should have balanced my checkbook. I had paid my tithing by check. It took several weeks to clear and when it finally did, it caused 4 others to bounce thereby "blessing" me with well over a hundred dollars in charges! That was the last time I paid tithing. I left TSCC about a year later. That was a decade ago and I've n

3) Fact: the mormon church is either 100% true or it is 100% false. Either God & Jebus showed themselves to JS in the grove as it has been told to us or they didn’t. None of us were there to witness the act, so the only thing we have to go on is JS testimony. We have to decide if JS was the type of person to tell a lie or not. Was he the type to lie, fib, fabricate? Yes. He lied abou

Talk about needing a reality check! Good godalmighty! There very well might be a rush at the beginning. There will be standing room only for a few days. But will people be buying lots and lots of stuff at Utah Woolen Mills? Will they come back time after time? And the idea that there will be "unique stores that can be found nowhere else in Utah or even in the West"? I don't t

While I really LOVED watching the show, it does have a limited story line. They had a zenith with the temple episode and things got wierd with the casino. The only reason I feel bad about it ending, is that the morgbots will tell each other that they prayed hard enough and it got cancelled 'cause of their prayers. What a bunch of f*****rds.

One with a hot, sexy satan and the other one with Michael Ballam. I knew which one was playing at which time (bottom of the hour at the seattle temple was the hot satan one) and would try to go to that one. If I was at another temple and happened to get the Ballam show, I was always dissapointed, but there was one bit of that movie that I did like. In the opening sequence when they are s

I would say something to the effect of "Grandpa ___ has more KNOWLEDGE than anybody living on this earth" or something. I'm on the same page as you are. A friend's mother died earlier this year and as she was taking her last breath, I was thinking that in a few minutes she will KNOW the truth, one way or the other. Personally, I think most people when they die are surprised

it is a major project. What a total waste of resources. http://www.ldschurchtemples.com/rome/video/ Looks like there is going to be a vistiors center with a statue of The Cletus & everything.

I just went and watched the vid that TSCC has put up showing renderings of the project. How many active mormons will use this? Good, god - a GIANT project and a collossal waste of money for NOTHING. I really am surprised that they would be able to justify this expense.

is because the morg leaders say "these so-called 'gays and lesbians'.....". They don't want to call me "gay". They want to say that I have SSA or same-sex-attraction. Well, to hell with them! I have PTSD, ADHD, RLS & am bi-polar types 1, 2 & 8, but I do NOT have SSA, thank you very much. And they are not a church. They claim to be a church, but they are nothi

come to the same conclusion that I did. It is funny to think about how these people (and I was one of them at one point) put everything into something that is impossible to be true. I think of my mother whos life revolved around church. She literally wasted her life.

Has anybody ever heard of a statistician running the numbers? How would they figure that? First, the odds that god & jebus came in the flesh to JS. Then the odds of the BoM, then polyg, then BoA, etc etc etc. It would be a fun read.

But funny story about Princess Bride. I went on my mormon mission to Japan in 1989. I got there Dec 4 and we were watching a movie on Dec 6. It was The Princess Bride. Actually, we watched it a number of times at an investigators house and I enjoyed it so much that I made an audio recording of it. I would put in my tape at night to go to sleep with. After the mission, I continued with

My pamphlet has a 2008 copyright on it with a picture of The Cletus on the front and a portrait of the first prezidency on the inside cover (suitable for framing). It is a shiny, glossy affair. I know that TSCC has its own printshop, but I find it interesting that they have enough people sending in letters for them to go through the effort to make such a pamphlet.

I had perma grin on my face! I had the exact same experience (at age 30 no less). Congratulations! You used to love the BoA. I love it now because it was what made me go "I'm done here". I have a story on topic. 10 years ago when I first found out about the issues with TSCC, I went to my closest friend for answers. I thought that all the members knew about these issues,
