Re: Serving bishop resigns from the stand at sacrament meeting
Yep, I can envisage that is where he is heading. I could be wrong of course. But as I said, google “cynical” and you’ll get me. I think there's reason to be cynical. Not about his motives for resigning, but about his reasons for resigning in such a public way. After all, he could have just told the...

Re: Lester Bush has passed
Definitely saddening. If it wasn't for the work of people like Bush, I would probably not have converted to Mormonism. Lester's seminal paper "Mormonism’s Negro Doctrine: a historical Overview," was my first foray into reading that would ultimately lead me out of Mormonism. It's ironic the two diff...

Re: What works, what doesn't?
The church caters well to individuals who align with traditional values and beliefs, but simply doesn't for those who identify as LGBTQ+, feminists, intellectuals, or skeptics, as well as their loved ones. Yesterday, I attended a large family reunion in Bountiful, Utah, considered the heart of Zion....

Re: The Jesus Myth: An unrelenting case for history
What puzzles me here is why it should matter whether a Jesus son of Mary and Joseph lived or not, such that it becomes the focus of dubious arguments of granular probabilities. He appears to have lived, but that is not the important question. The important question is whether he was resurrected or ...

Re: Reviving the Board
So you totally agree that this is not a free speech forum, even if it was defined as such by its founders? You also seem to acknowledge that you are using the Board to reinforce anti-Mormon ideology by only allowing opinions that align with yours. You seem to want your opinion to be confirmed here,...

Re: Reviving the Board
I, for one, agree with the OP. We need more posts about how great Trump is. More posts yearning for Putin to win the war in Ukraine. We need more posts bashing LGBT, promoting the heartland theory, dunking on the clot shot, and the pLandemic. How about a few threads on the pizza parlor brothels tha...

Re: The “Plan of Happiness” has evolved into the “Covenant Path”
I believe the original author is Simon Southerton.
