Re: Is to sin while planning to repent better?

Sometimes I look back at my posts and wonder, why did I even say that to begin with. Because I really don't believe in sins anymore. I guess it's just a thought I had at the moment based on a memory. While I don't even recognize "sins" as a real concept, I do recognize that I have shortcom...

Re: Is to sin while planning to repent better?

"if I fall and sin which I do, that I may almost immediately/hurriedly seek forgiveness make restitution as needed and seek/rely on the Spirit to restore my relationship with Jesus who is always ready to forgive and welcome me back. Thanks for sharing this. It makes sense to me but does cause ...

Re: Is to sin while planning to repent better?

Dr. Shades wrote:Why not just ask Athena, your deity of choice, and tell us what she answers?

I think the question is the same, no matter the deity, is it not?

Is to sin while planning to repent better?

I was wondering what you might think of this theological quandary: If I justify my choice to sin by planning to repent right afterward, is God less likely to forgive me (or show me grace)? If this is the case, why would we not justify our sins by planning to repent waaaaaaayyyyy later. We could secr...

Bachelor of Provo

I tried watching this show. I really tried. m But found it unbearable. Being a recent fan of some reality shows like 90-day fiance, I figured this Provo show might be a good pick. I expected it to be funny and entertaining because of how weird and awkward we all were at BYU. But it turns out to be l...

Isn't coffee the best ever?

Isn't it amazing how you sometimes feel a shocking epiphany while drinking coffee? Like, "It's amazing how much joy a drink has given me." And this drink in particular is the one they decide to ban? They told me the purpose of life is to find lasting joy and coffee gives me this. So why on...

Re: The Abominable and Detestable Crime Against Nature

Endless hierarchies of one-upmanship and jockeying for status and power. Corporate heaven. My idea of hell. I was recently hanging out with my cousin in a different state and he has a BIL that recently got promoted from MP to Area President. My cousin is a very faithful member. He told me how he th...

Re: The Abominable and Detestable Crime Against Nature

They really should apologize. It would go a long way for them. Most young people in the U.S. will not have any interest in this church because of crap like this unless they make some big changes.

The Abominable and Detestable Crime Against Nature

I stumbled upon this read today: m (A Revised History of Homosexuality & Mormonism, 1840-1980) It's an interesting read to be sure. One of the many things I found interesting was how schism churches were created for the purpose of including gay people. Unfortunately, because Mormonism is such a ...
