Re: It’s really easy if you stick with telling the truth
You appear to be spiraling yet again. I really hope you finally take the advice that’s been offered over (and over, and over, and over) again, to seek the help of a licensed professional. There’s no need to keep discovering new rock bottoms. This could be the last, if you choose it to be. I'm saying...

Re: Is it okay to lie to your spouse?
I’m trying to think of instances where it would be “Ok,” and I’m having some difficulty. I guess a potential metric would be if they would feel hurt, betrayed, or have their ability to trust impacted should they find out about the lie. If it’s something where they found out about the lie, and though...

Re: Russia suggests next targets could be three US states and two NATO countries
Lol. The US is almost keeping Russia's military at bay with nothing more than what's essentially surplus arms given to another country's dwindling military.
That "political scientist" was obviously just doing the propaganda jig.

Re: I could've made all of you rich
Ermmm... Novo Nordisk was pretty successful before semaglutide. How exactly do you think they financed the research and marketing for it? Lol. That said, their GLP-1 agonists (Ozempic, Wegovy, and Rybelsus) are definitely the lion's share of their current income. They've still got their insulin beat...

Re: doubtingthomas’s topics MEGATHREAD
In my early 30s (before marrying my now-ex-wife), I was using an app/website for dating. I went on a date with a woman who was 22, and one with a woman who was 23. I am sure it was a lot easier ten years ago. Not so much these days. I don't know. It sure seems like people are seeking out some prett...

[...] some older adults seem to suffer from the dunning-kruger effect. *self-awareness has left the chat* ETA: In retrospect, this wasn't fair.

Re: Brigham Young doesn’t deserve his online criticism
It's good to know that Brigham's thoughts on why chattel slavery was a curse on the masters was because he thought it was more expensive than just paying someone a wage. Not because it was morally repugnant to keep a human being as personal property. Incidentally, this incredibly enlightened moral ...

Re: Brigham Young doesn’t deserve his online criticism
Proprietor: In 1859, Horace Greeley, the famous editor of the New York Daily Tribune, visited Utah Territory and interviewed Brigham Young. In the course of the interview, Greeley asked whether Utah planned to be a slave state. “No,” Brigham replied, “she will be a Free State.” He proceeded to expl...

Re: Brigham Young doesn’t deserve his online criticism
Wild how people who have direct access to eternal truths, and divine morals and ethics tend to reliably just end up being products of their time.

Re: Have you ever met a Mormon General Authority…
None for me (other than meeting Hinkley once), but my Grandpa B had an experience that I think is kind of funny. While giving a ride to LeGrand Richards, Richards had fallen asleep. He woke up by a sign for Kolob -- I think it was an exit sign, as they were visiting quite a few different communities...
