Anything to do with CURSES has nothing to do with anything resembling any kind of god. I mean think about it. Last Halloween, wasn't it supposedly witches who put a curse on someone? NOT REALLY but wasn't it? So why would anyone namem God put a curse on anyone?

Beth - he didn't read it unless it was also in REFROMED EQYPTIAN. That is the one constant in TSCC that makes me LOL virtually every time I think about it. How can anyone believe in a language that doesn't exist, that never existed, and NOT see through the TSCC? The only other foreign language that is associated with TSCC that nobody else seems to be able to read is Kolobian. Am I alone here

Forest pal is right - go for a walk in a winter wonderland. Go ice skating, shopping, to a movie, just anything to get out of you house for a while. And keep writing on this board. YOU DO HAVE FRIENDS HERE WHO KNOW WHAT YOU"VE BEEN THROUGH AND KNOW NOW YOU FEEL. Tis the season for depression too and that might be part of it. Is this your first holiday season out of the cult?

homoerectus - please tell me you are kidding. Mandela is closer to god-like than most people will ever get and he did it without memorizing complicated handshakes and wearing a butcher hat and saying Pay Lay Ale. Anyone who could call him a terrorist should have their head examined.

So I am wondering how TBMs are able to place this extremely good person, Nelson Mandela (by the standrads of nearly every religion on earth) in the position of NOT being in the highest heaven now that he passed on. Even though he has done so much good in the world (like Mother Thereas), he is NOT eligible for the CK. How does one fix the cognitive dissonance there? Or are they planning to dead

I just wrote this on another post.......(insert Twilight Zone theme here)... If you love the mountains/scenery part of Utah, come join us in gorgeous Colorado. We have the beauty without the cult. And you are still close enough to go see relatives on I-70 or I -80 for a 7 - 10 hour road trip. Or fly to SLC from Denver in just over an hour. Colorado has the same seasons/weather (same powder snow)

Why worry about all of this crap when there is no REAL wall around Utah. The Zion curtain allows moving vans to go through it. Utah is nice to vist but don't live there.

I literally want to vomit......am I alone on this or is anyone shocked that any human being could take this racial crap seriously? Blood that is less valiant? WTF does that mean? Blacks have to have priesthood because there are not enough white spirits? Spirts have skin colors now? Well it doesn't exactly say that but furnishing a certain body colored tabernacle? Not enough white tabernacles?

I guess I rebelled, but it was against everything in my life at the time pretty much. I never did have a testimony in the moronic sense that some people do. I was always asking too many questions. I really think the expression "Lost the testimony" is insane. It's like "Oh crap where did I put that testimony. If it were a snake it would bite me. I guess I just lost it." Reall

I am in the wedding industry. I attend 50+ weddings per year at least. Each wedding is different, but some things they all have in common. I am not in Utah either, I want to say that. In my experience, there have been about 7 weddings where there was NO alcohol at all out of the past 14 years of my being in this industry. One of these are due to the fact that the groom was a recovering alcoholi

I had an outer body experience NOT involving aliens so I do know that outer body experiences are real. When I first moved into my old house years ago, I had been living there for a few months when I found something very odd. First I must say that I am an average housekeeper. I don't clean walls and tops of doorways often. And I was still unpacking etc. when this happened. I could see my body i

Be patient with your wife. She has been pregnant for most of the last year. Never judge a woman's level of desire or anything when she is pregnant. Also give her some time. She has a two month old and might be experiencing some depression related to hormones. I know guys don't think post-partum depression is real but ask a doctor, it is real. I think your wife will come around to your way of th

Most of us on this board have a list of reasons why we left TSCC. I am wondering what TSCC is saying is the reaons members are leaving (once they actually admit that it is happening.) Any of you who speak with TBMs hear any reasons they might think about? I'm sure it is always the leaving apostate's fault, but I am curious about what TSCC thinks is the main reason.

I sure wish I could have my parents over for dinner. THey passed away. Today I thoug of the various Thanksgivings with them and I really missed them. Just my husband and I had dinner. Our daughter and her family were out of town so we couldn't eat with them. Rather than being completely left out, I think you should invite yourselves and offer to bring something.

I agree with green potato - it is not mandatory to love everyboby in your family. There is no reason to actually start fights with her. Just be polite and hate her. It's OK.

I think some of the folks here are being a bit harsh on your wife. I know I am going to hear about it. But, I think there may be one other way to see this right now. Tell the kids who seem interested in what you have to say the truth as much as is age appropriate. Do it without swearing about JS even if you feel like it if the kids are young. Tell all of the kids that there is no Santa. Your
