If I understand this, we are supposed to Light the World by becoming more like Jesus? Okay, I can do that. Didn't Jesus like to hang out with Beggars? prostitutes? and chase people out of the temple who were "changing money"? I don't know, maybe I can't do this. I don't want to go to jail again. On their Light the World calendar, December 9th, it says to invite a widow or widower to

I love fast food. A Pastrami bacon cheeseburger with fries and some Utah fry sauce? That is food fitting for the Celestial Kinkdom.

I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be able to find a mormon willing to loan you their temple recommend. They have paid a steep price for it and if it is a current one, they have to keep paying that steep price every time they renew it. Hence, if they are active enough to have one, they likely won't allow an outsider to use it. You can get your own temple recommend, but be prepared to pay hundreds of

Boyd was a boy, with a toy, as a boy He played with his toy, till the world he annoyed. After school, after lunch. He touched it a bunch Yes he played with his toy, on a whim, on a hunch. His Mom seen it too, she thought with a sigh I won’t stop him now, if I do he will cry. What should I say to this boy who does play It’s his toy, in his hand, every morning, night, and day. What

When I left the morg I wanted to try coffee and I got some at the gas station, just to try it. It was nasty, but I knew that people who drink it really like it so I tried again another day. I eventually bought my own Mr. Coffee drip-maker and started experimenting. I didn't know how many scoops for a pot full, or how many sugars, or how many creamers. They don't teach that in Sunday School class.

In my case that is very true. I was a true believer in Santa Claus and defended that awesome man for many years. But, then one night, I seen something that left me unable to go back to sleep. It wasn't Santa eating the cookies I had so carefully left out on a plate by the fireplace. It wasn't Santa who put a pile of toys & clothes on the couch. And, I can't deny what I learned that night.

I have three theory's about why Mr. Packer took up this crusade: 1. Mr. Packer was quite the accomplished wanker himself and his Bishop had "disciplined" the Boyd into submission. Now it was time for all wanking boys to suffer the same indignation's that brother Boyd had been subjected to as a young offender. 2. For years Mr. Packer had enjoyed hearing all of the confessions of y

I see from the link that this is something that will be studied at least until the money runs out. But, how would they implement it? If I'm subject to a tax every time I google "Hot Babes in Heels Changing a Light-bulb on a Step Ladder", would I have to pay a tax before the results could be shown? This could be more expensive than tithing!

Years ago I did some work for a man who had just gotten divorced and she took him to the cleaners with high alimony. He offered another man, a business partner, $50,000 in cash if the other man would marry her which would end the alimony he was paying. The other man agreed and took the woman out on a few dates. The plan was to marry her and then get it quickly annulled. Things were looking good u

I'm not aware of any secret schools for mormon girls who become great with child. However I do remember many years ago that when a mormon girl became pregnant she went away for a few months and returned home un-pregnant. If anyone asked where she went, it was always, "off to school" with a wink.

Nope, I used to watch when I was still a believer, and took a lot of naps on the sofa with the brethren yakking away. Now I take those same naps with a football game going.

I remember this song, but didn't much care for it. Amazing grace how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now I'm found. Was blind but now I see.

My Father-in-law passed away a couple of years ago and he knew he was going to die soon. In his final months my daughter had a good heart to heart chat with him. He had been a TBM for the last half of his life, but wasn't rabid about it. When asked point blank if he believed the church to be what it claims, he said he did not. But, he added, it taught good values and that was the reason he stayed

You could tell them that you resigned to save the Bishop from being caught. And, then just leave it at that. If they want to hear more, change the subject.
