Their track record is perfect. Any prophesy that didn't pan out was when they were "speaking as men". C'mon- you know better.

So, how do you know when Fast Sunday is, if you're a non- member? Is it like election day, the first Tuesday (not on the 1st of the month) in November? How does that work? Can you bring a snack if you're a visitor?

God. I was transferred to Jackson for 10 years. Lived in Madison by the rez. Spent many, many days up the Pearl skiing and boarding. Got transferred to SoCal. Then to SLC. I thought Mississippi was a backwards, over zealous religious State. Then I moved here. Mississippi doesn't come close to the title of having the most religious, backward bigots in the US.

"I suspect other churches in Utah have done proportionally much more to help the poor than LD$, Inc. ever will." You suspect right. He really didn't want to open that can of worms. Twitter pounded him with that point and many others of his hypocrisy. By 2 PM, he deleted his Twitter feed after trying weakly to defend his stupidity.

"It was funny how the graffiti was quickly painted over." Yep. Usually, they make/match a color to try to make the repaint blend in. In this case it was "Hurry, what ever you have on the truck will do".

Japan has beer, sake and alcohol vending machines every few blocks. No ID required, but severe penalties for minors caught using an alcohol vending machine. Next, there is no, none, zero, drink equivalence ratio to alcohol BAC. A

It's a 10. The ultimate MLM/Ponzi scheme. All supported by the US government allowing them tax exempt status. We all love to point out the stupidity, bigotry, fraudulent, hypocritical, racist, misogynistic, homophobic and arrogant behavior of "the" church. But the fact is they are geniuses at the art of scamming the world. Gold medal winner.

Why a gay person, or a black person, much less a gay black person, would ever associate with LDS, Inc. is beyond me. It's like joining the KKK for god's sake. They hate you on a couple of fronts. He's an abomination in the scriptures and the words of church leaders. The man needs a different road to travel to achieve his goals. Starting with getting the hell out of mormonism.

That was 5 years ago? I live in Utah. How come society hasn't collapsed? What about the "sanctity of marriage"? How about people marrying animals? That's what Utah lawmakers said would happen if SSM became legal. My kid is a senior in High School. In these past 5 years the "homosexual agenda" hasn't been forced on students. You guys aren't doing your jobs! Happy Anniversary!

The video was funny. But totally staged. He presented it as actual thieves that got caught. It was a good design. All the rest was BS.

Remember the BYU grad "porch pirate" video a few days ago? Turns out he faked it. https://www.sltrib.com/news/2018/12/21/part-byu-grads-glitter/ Bet this doesn't show up in the D-News. They go overboard, on any obscure mormon, anywhere, being noteworthy. But when it blows up in their face, or when mormon crooks are caught, they suddenly go silent.

Bingo. Separate, isolate, starve, indoctrinate. Classic brainwashing. Just like Hare Krishna, Moonies, Scientologists, etc. The missionary program is not "inspired", it's indoctrination with the goal of long term tithing dividends. Nothing more.

Let's not start popping the champagne anytime soon. Although mormons may only be around 60% of Utahn's, they control an abnormally high portion of political seats. Most of it is by gerrymandering, but they control just about everything. 90% of our State Legislators are active LDS. So are the Gov., Lt. Gov,and Attorney General. All Senators and Congressmen are mormon. All the department heads are

They give the same gift to about 8 of us neighbors. Since 1/2 of them are mormons, I'm guessing this wasn't a ward idea, otherwise they'd be exchanging the same things. Just strange.

I lived in MS for a number of years. I moved there from Texas for a really good job. The Southern Baptists were about as over the top as the mormons in Utah, but not as cliquish. The first Spring, I was mowing my lawn on Sunday about 10 am. An older couple slowed their mega yacht Buick and stopped in front of my house and rolled down the window. I thought they might be lost, so I stopped the mowe

I think you got a few "sins" confused. Like Rusty said. I don't think any religious leaders said masturbation was next to murder, but adultery was. Masturbation is necessary for life. As far as biologists can tell, Dinosaurs never masturbated. And look what happened to them.

Nope. This is a direct shot at Utah mormons. They don't care about their viewership. This is a direct result of the overzealous DABC (controlled by LDS Inc.) ill thought out attack on Brewvies. Ryan Reynolds contributed 5K to their defense fund, which ended up with a judgement for Utah to pay nearly 500K in legal fees and penalties. This was no coincidence. Notice mormons they started a petition.
