Today two different stories came up on my feed, one after another re: Mormonism. One was whining about the threat to religious freedom; the other about the sentencing of a serial Mormon child molester. Made me think: What religious freedom is under threat? The church's ability to counsel and forgive sex abusers and reinstate them into church positions without having to report to the polic

How much, if any, of the stress of the Ballard/Ballard saga do you think contributed to M. Russell's death?

I have to admit I do too! Those full sleeve tats just look like someone hasn't washed in a long, long time. And the metal? If a waitress has the nose thing that looks like she didn't blow her nose properly, I almost can't stomach the food.

There will be a special study of corpses with tattooed hula girls from the 40s and 50s that will be the subject of someone's thesis as they reject your 1990s-2000s dating method hypothesis.Even more specialized will be those specimens with the "LOVE MOM" grouping.

Even if the First Presidency *controls* the finances, surely the other authorites are aware of who *are* the wealthy donors.

He has posted 32 podcasts about O. U. R. and the so called hero of Sound of Freedom. Watch this. Or google the relavant names. He has also published the 7 cases of sexual abuse filed against the so called "rescuer". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXbcrDd4J-Q

Embellishing? Morphing? Reinterpreting? Explaning? Or simply erasing? How's that working for them?

All cultures have developed norms and mores in order to survive, cooperate, divide the labor, be more productive, have trust in each other. If some religions codify their view into lists, or articles, or scripture, or holy text or monuments, temples, cathedrals or whatever and include a god or spirit or demon or Satan, it's fine with me. It doesn't make one point of view of morality any more

I think sooner than that. He had a fall nearly a month ago and doesn't seem to be recovering well. Had to skip Con'furnz. Very often a fall by an elderly person precipitates death, as the dominos of the body systems begin to fail. I'm guessing within the month. JMHO.
