Witchcraft doesn't result in a net positive. In order to get something good, you have to do something bad. There aren't many truly bad things you can do (society has already beaten you to most of them) to obtain serious material gain. But even that is temporary because of Karma. It's just really sick sh!t. The earth is awash with spirits of a low vibration, who thrive on low vibration energy.

Apologies to Dierdorf, but they're all little Eichmanns. I'm not going to sit here and judge people for being pathetic. The GAs have a basic human right to be pathetic. My problem is with the system that requires TSCC to be led by blind guides.

Do missionaries have to convert people? You could treat the thing as a 2-year service project, ignoring all instructions from the MP about proselyting. Spend all day doing charity work. But then, you could do that just as well at home. I don't know why your folks are having a cow. Did you get a girl pregnant? Drop out of college? Total the car? No. You just decided to be honest with yourself.

Yes, but Big Tobacco was successfully sued. If you buy a pack of smokes now, you help subsidize the social costs of harming your body. Who subsidizes the social costs of dysfunction brought on by Mormonism? Who pays for your shrink when you learn that TSCC simply cannot be true? Karmic justice will get TSCC in the end, but effective use of the justice system is what leads to social progress

That's some way cool image processing. They perform a 2D FFT on both images, then filter out the low frequencies of Albert and the high frequencies of Marilyn. They combine the spectra and turn the result back into an image with an IFFT. I can look at the image without glasses and see a perfect fuzzy Marilyn. Or, with glasses and see Albert. You could get philosophical about how people see

There's nothing like the conscious connection to the stars to bring out the connection to Oneness. Tree whispering is another way to get there. Pines are especially sociable. Too much hippy dippy?

How can they call a Chicken McNugget chicken? Maybe these so-called prophets say nothing because they have nothing to say. They have nothing to add to what has already been said. They can offer no interpretations of existence based on new knowledge. New knowledge means change, and God isn't allowed to change. As is often pointed out here, no GA can be a true prophet because the capacity for

I've had an epiphany. All this time, I've had time all wrong. Owing time, being owed time, time as a commodity. Mormonism even had me doing hard time. The Rolling Stones are right about time: "Time can tear down a building or destroy a woman's face Hours are like diamonds, don't let them waste" But what I didn't get was that the eternal now is an ocean of time.

A great day to simply love being, without neurotic thoughts. A great day to love and accept the whole world without condition (admittedly, it's still pretty early in the morning). Today, Mormonism doesn't piss me off at all. Am I happy I went through the experience? I suppose as happy as any Jew who lived through the Holocaust. If anyone asks me if I want to do it again, I think I'll pass

When an official statement like this comes days into the investigation, it has to be bogus.

Teach them about the famous Milgram Experiment, which was initially spurred by the trial of Adolph Eichmann. Every kid needs to know this stuff. It turns out that 65% of people will commit torture (up to the point of apparent death) if ordered to do so by credible authorities. It's not a fluke either. The experiment has been duplicated many times. Cultural conditioning is why the 65%. Mormon c

As he explained how we experience "I am", I was reminded of Ma. Ma is the tone of the divine feminine according to Hindu and Buddhist ideas. A primal tone used to express femininity. Am is the exact mirror of Ma. It's the masculine imagination of being that complements the transcendent feminine.

"Out of a rock in a hat" is figurative. The ideas in the BoM are all 19th century. Nothing lines up with historical evidence that has come to light after the 19th century. Those are objective hard facts, not subjective metaphysical stuff. For example, rock scrying is acceptable to some belief systems. But very few people disbelieve that the earth is round.
