Re: Early Modern English Question

The Early Modern English theory is a monument to the creativity and ingenuity of modern Mormon apologists. I really don’t understand the ridicule this theory generates. Joseph said he translated by the gift and power of God. Surely ghost committees lie within the boundaries of what God is capable of...

Re: John Gee claims in his new book intro that there's no need for his new book

In all honesty, I really do try to keep myself open to Gods and whatnot. Creator Gods, destroyer Gods, survival Gods, adventure Gods, demigods, the whole lot of them. One time I had a hypothesis that maybe Satan was a pretty good guy but he had been maligned and slandered by some of the other Gods. ...

Re: John Gee claims in his new book intro that there's no need for his new book

Knowledge based on evidence is always superior to any other kind. The evidence is also dependent/tied to what type/kind of evidence is allowed at the table and how that then impacts the flavor of understanding one has. If a creator God isn’t allowed a seat at the table that has an impact/influence,...

Re: Twisting both the criticism and the defense?

Thank you Dr. Moore for a very interesting post. As I was reading each quote from Dr. Petersen, I was so relieved that Dr. Petersen consistently used the full name of the church. “Oh Thank God! Thank God!” I kept thinking. Anyway, I haven’t followed very closely all this business about the Church of...

Re: Senior Missionary dies from Covid-19

Why didn't the prayers, the fasting and the priesthood blessings heal him? Because death was the result of the cascading reactions brought on by the COVID-19 virus and not from a psychogenic cause. It’s important to remember that the telepathic energy of FAPing (Fasting And Prayer, thank you Mormon...

Re: COVID-19 reactions and LDS “prophetic” evolution

Many of my non Mormon friends have told me how amazed they are that Mormons already have a church sponsored curriculum that they can follow in their homes during these times of widespread quarantine. I tell them that you’d expect this type of prescient planning when God, who can see the beginning to...

Re: COVID-19 reactions and LDS “prophetic” evolution

I really try not to be a choosing beggar when it comes to revelations and miracles. But I am struggling to see God working through Mormon leaders with regard to how things have unfolded with coronavirus. The scriptures are replete with clear of examples of God working miracles though his BFF’s. Reme...

Re: Not eating for 24 hours stops Coronavirus. LDS Leader.

I really like this idea of fasting. At worst, fasting does nothing except have some possible health benefits for the participants. At best, some Mormons stop coronavirus dead in its tracks and become heros of the entire world! It’s a win-win all the way around. However, just to cover all the bases, ...

Re: The Fallacy of the Lineage Defense Made Simple

The idea of “not one drop” seems an easy enough concept but I’m not aware of God developing a blood test to check for the curse of Cain. From a practical standpoint, from what I have gathered, Mormon missionaries before 1978 were instructed to look for certain physical characteristics to determine i...
