By the time I was eleven or twelve I knew Santa Claus wasn't real, the Easter Bunny wasn't real, and the Tooth Fairy wasn't real. Not too long after that I realised God wasn't real either. I can't say I lost my faith because I never had any really...

Then why do men keep staring and staring at them even know they know they aren't natural? Here's a news story about some male Australian beetles who think that beer bottles are large female beetles: http://news.discovery.com/animals/beetles-dying-beer-bottles-111003.htm There are advantages and disadvantages to everything.

Perhaps if men would not reject having a relationship with woman simply because she has small breasts or a flat chest there would be no need for breast implants. But, as we all know, males are visually oriented and there are certain things men insist on women and the image of two humps of flesh pressed together on the chest is one of them.

I've put this up before but will do so again for illustrative purposes. I'm not religious, knew the church was made up but was going to get married to a Mormon and pretended to go along with it. Well, the marriage didn't happen but they were still trying to get me to join the church. The sisters I spoke with didn't have a clue about what I could easily find out about Mormonism on the World Wide

The COJSOLDS decided long ago to distance itself from the religion of Brigham Young in exchange for economic and political power. The future argument will be about who the "real" Mormons are. I don't think the FLDS are going to begin a recruitment drive though.

Hi Steve...here's a question for you: Does this mean that the fundamentalists are right when they claim they are the Real, Original™ Mormons? What is your opinion?

Sean McCraney's show is called "Heart Of The Matter." I started watching it for the entertainment value and his verbal sparring with Mormons. He's not doing that so much any longer but you can go through all of the back episodes and fast forward to the good bits. He also has shows on YouTube as well. http://hotm.tv/

This is what black people who are investigating the church would care about. What the the Brethren say officially is important but what people actually think at a local level would be much more important.

Do any of you remember seeing this pamphlet when it was first published? What was your reaction? This was clearly racist nonsense and was indefensible even in 1970. http://www.lds-mormon.com/christ_i.shtml

Hi Tristan. I know you are scared but you can free yourself from fear if you try. I remember when I was five and I had just finished reading my first astronomy book. I had read the Sun would eventually turn into a red giant and destroy the Earth -- in about four billion years. I was very frightened but the sun came out the next morning and the Earth was still there. It's something that's go
