Sorry if this has already been discussed. But, apparently the church is now shipping new donation forms to wards and branches in the U.S. Things like the education fund, temple fund, etc. are no longer a seperate line item. Also, the following statement now appears at the bottom of the donation slip...

Tobin,

Have you read Palmer's book?

Have you listened to his podcasts on Mormon Stories (the first one and now the recent one)?

I would also like to know which allegations from William Law were false. Tobin obviously feels very passionately about William Law, so he/she must have a very good reason for it. Tobin, we are all waiting for you to list the allegations from William Law that are false. Also, what lies can you find ...

Even if one buys into Tobin's only defense that "God did it". Who would want to believe in or worship or trust a God who does these types of things to his loyal followers? Sounds like a harsh punishment to me! Tobin, you keep falling back on the only thing you can (that God can perform mi...

Food for thought : Each metric ton of fresh water contributes to more that in a metric ton of urine, feces, sweat and carbon dioxide, all of which need to be quickly removed from the barges once created. Given the design of the barges as described in the Book of Ether, removal would not have been p...

The reason why Church leaders want Mormon women to marry young is NOT because Church leaders are sexists (maybe they are, but that is not why they want Mormon women to marry young), but because the longer a Mormon woman puts off marriage, the "larger" her circle of non-LDS friends and acq...
