Every year 9-11 always makes me remember the existential crisis it seemed like to me back when it happened, I immediately said to myself, “Nietzsche was right, God is dead.” I completely lost my faith in any kind of an interventionist God at that point. I figured God was as good as dead if He was good for nothing when the lives of 3,000 innocent people were on the line. 23yrs have passe

A. Impotent B. Ignorant C. Indifferent D. Allah E. Non Existent On 9-11 the answer seemed obvious, E. Non-Existent because if He was any other option, why call him God? But 23yrs later seems like there is another option to me F. God is just a word we use to describe our creator, nature, and it doesn’t care about humans being evil to each other. Is there another option?

Interesting read, “The leaders of the Church of Latter-day Saints seem to find something about the show especially threatening. Last month they put out a commentary, “When Entertainment Media Distorts Faith,” and while they did not mention “Mormon Wives” by name, the statement called out “a number of recent productions” that “depict lifestyles and practices blatantly inconsist

Seems like a lot of things that became ‘doctrine’ when BR McDonkey wrote ‘Mormon Doctrine’ are no longer considered ‘Mormon Doctrine’ starting with the name Mormon, which is now considered a ‘Victory for Satan’ since the current PRetend PRofit contradicted every past PRofit.

My questions to missionaries, 1. How many wives did Joseph Smith have and how many of them were married at the time he married them? (They inevitably have no idea and ask why I care.) 2. I tell them the correct answer is he had 33 ‘wives’ besides Emma, 11 of whom were already married to his followers and another 11 who were teenagers as young as 14yo when he married them. And I care b

Monkey Man Mormon Re: Joe Rogan’s ExMo guest on growing up MORmON “Yeah it's really odd that I'm A white supremest who goes to church(a Mormon one) with multiple people of color. And if we were really white supremest then why would we send missionaries to regions of primarily people of color.” Uh, Because everywhere else has internet and ain’t buying it?

From his wiki Past predictions Kurzweil's first book, The Age of Intelligent Machines, presents his ideas about the future. Written from 1986 to 1989, it was published in 1990. Building on Ithiel de Sola Pool's "Technologies of Freedom" (1983), Kurzweil claims to have forecast the dissolution of the Soviet Union due to new technologies such as cellular phones and fax machines disemp

Also, why do they lead the nation in porn subscriptions and Prozac consumption?

I told my NaziTBM X-MIL I had coffee with her and she was an active Mormon lesbian, with a calling. She said, ”I don’t judge anybody based upon who they sleep with at home but I’m just surprised that a lesbian is given a calling.” (Yeah right, she is the most judgmental person I know and extremely bigoted)

I did not leave the church to smoke, drink and have sex. I left the abusive Doomsday CULT because it is abusive towards blacks, women, homosexuals and children. It protects pedophiles and blames victims. And I didn’t want to raise my children in the abusive CULT that routinely covers up for sexual abusers and normalizes sexual abuse by singing the praises of a rapist who abused his power and au
