Re: What happens to the Honest Mormon?
Nice to hear one brave soul, but he sounds mistaken- from the tower of Babble to the Rameumptum, the *true* church has always taught the principle that the higher the steeple on great and spacious buildings, the closer they are to God (probably so they can get better cell reception for their prayers...

Happy Fam's Day
Happy two mothers day, happy two fathers day, happy for those without kids, happy for those with kids- either their own, step, adopted, or just anyone teaching coaching supporters of young-uns. Happy for the new graduates. Happy for those without degrees - that is just fine too. Happy summer break f...

Re: Psychics & Ballards
Lol. I really hope they have evidence. I know a Mormon psychic - people pay her for prayers, essential oils, rocks, chacra? all kinds of new age posters, herbs, etc. Energy work etc? Chi / Taoist - some of that energy stuff is kind of interesting.... Somehow it is creepy from someone who is Mormon t...

Re: How to respond to believing spouse?
My family wasn't at my baptism, or my wedding, just in-laws. It makes me sick looking back. I wish my parents were part of my wedding. For graduation ceremonies, weddings, birthdays - it's not about the school they graduated from, its not about all the inlaws, its not the hospital they were born in ...

Re: Temples, temples everywhere...
TLDR: My question is, what will the next guy do? Perhaps a miracle and the next guy will announce "temple" is no longer a physical building, but " spiritual " building. 1 Peter 2:5 You yourselves like living stones are being built up as a "spiritual" house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer "spirit...

Re: Conspiracy Road Trip: Creationism
I have staunch young-earth creationists in the family.
The Bible does fall apart without it.
Adam and Eve story? First death? Redeemed from that first death? What created means, made by god? Or not made, just oversee natural process?
If everyone is honest, Darwin debunked all of Christianity.

Re: Best part of conference?
This weekend I hung up little inspirational quotes inside cabinets and behind doors, to see in the morning, when coming and going. Covenant bond? Naaa, try everyone bond - “Namasté,” I honor the place in you where the entire universe resides; I honor the place in you of love, of light, of truth, of ...

Re: Returning to the fold
I was sooo tempted to post that to my social media, but realized only a small % now would get it (most of my current connections are now nevermo- don't know my history). I've never known any x's who have returned. If that happened - if one of my kids wanted to return or something - ugh, would be a r...

Re: Would you do it all over?
I would change soooo many things if I could start life over again knowing what I know now. I've never quite understood those who say they wouldn't change a thing... really?

Re: From 15th to 23rd
I sometimes feel lucky to have grown up in the era I did. Aside from the obvious (not living in a war zone or subject to starvation, etc.), it seems like kids had a lot more unsupervised play in the recent past than they do now. And how would my life have been different had I carried a mobile phone...

Returning to the fold
After a reflective Easter holiday experience, I've come to realize the profound significance of my Mormon faith in my life. The themes of renewal, rebirth, and spiritual growth echoed throughout the chocolate coated celebrations resonated deeply with me, prompting a reevaluation of my beliefs and va...

It wasn't a gradual fungus for me.
