Re: Keys To Sexuality
Apparently this meme is 7 years old, but it's new to me and seems to apply here. Just replace Jesus' face with whoever is trying to control your sexuality. Mom, is that you? https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/020/852/forgot_to_ask_thumb.png That meme is creepy to me. It would lead to ...

Re: God vs Evolution vs middle land
I think no one knows And this is probably the most important thing to know about God (or whatever). A personal experience is just that. Anyone who tells you what God wants YOU to do should be ignored, because it always turns out that God wants you to part with your money . Or, as is the case of ...

Re: How to get out of cleaning the church...
My 2 cents on this... Growing up, I lived up the street from a couple whose job was custodian of several church buildings. He was a good man who was severely injured in a car accident when he was in his 20's. The custodial job didn't make him rich. But the job helped him to afford a modest home and ...

Re: Elder Ballard: "There has been no attempt on the part of the Church leaders to try to hide anything from anybody"
I have to chuckle. Seems to me that if inspiration and revelation truly were imbued in the 15 (past and present) they would have simply remembered Matt 5:37. Such communication would have provided precise and unambiguous answers to the questions now plaguing the church. Come to think of it, the ...

Re: What was your first crack
Whew! The first hairline cracks started on my mission. The disconnect between obedience and success was very stark. Plus, there was a continuing, nagging feeling that what I was representing wasn't all above board. After my mission, things like Fawn Brodie's book, the Hoffman affair, historical and ...

Re: Explain your avatar choice
My avatar is a reflection of my user name which was the new name I was given when I received my endowment many years ago. So if anyone here received their endowment in the St George temple early December, 1977, well then, Hi there! Hi! And what the . . . I thought I was the only one with that name ...

Re: What mission did you serve in
Started out as the Idaho-Pocatello mission. Mission HQ was later moved to Boise so it became the Idaho-Boise mission. Served from 78-80. Yep, I'm approaching ancient of days status! :shock: I struggled internally everyday trying to rectify what I was doing with the nagging feeling that I was ...

Re: Deseret news article on doubt
Geez, this article tees me off. It brings back memories of my mission. If you had doubts, weren't having success, it was all on you. Same with callings post-mission (bishopric, stake presidency, high council). It dredges up the guilt I felt when I finally realized what a tool I had been and the ...

Re: "We don't practice Mormonism anymore."
My reply has been "We bought a jeep". That usually ends it right there.
