Background checks can cover a multitude of things, not just criminal records. Things like employment history, the record of where people have lived etc. I've done background checks for youth sports and I run them for employment at my job, and there is nothing in a background check that will tell yo...

That wasn't in conference. And ironically it’s the most recent publicly admitted revelation from the brethren. I suppose the days of disclosing revelation at the pulpit during conference is over, they’ll all now be quietly added to non-public church handbooks. Are you sure about that? I suspect if ...

Cruise Lady Caribbean Temple - Ports of call from Bermuda to San Juan. Enjoy a Cruise Lady Temple vacation today! Greg Prince's book on David O. Mckay actually mentions them considering making a "Temple ship" that could travel to different areas. It's actually not a bad idea, but I expect it would ...

And who can forget the children of gay parents ban…

That wasn't in conference.

Background checks, when done properly, do more than simply check for a criminal history. They can show other red flags that should make a person pause before allowing them unfettered access to minors who are groomed to believe they can always trust a “called” adult male. What are you talking about?...

The Church still doesn’t run background checks before appointing people to leadership positions with responsibility for minors. Background checks are great, but I can't recall ever reading about abuse in the Church that would have been stopped by a background check. They can only catch people that ...

I was happy to receive in my Facebook messenger inbox this afternoon a communication from Bob Crocket’s daughter… …Who parted ways with the church a few years back… …Principally because of RFM podcasts. Wow. The course of the Lord really is one eternal round. Did she mention anything else that's go...

I guess I am the lucky one then. And I owe it all to Cardon Ellis! I was looking through Bob's posts at MDDB and came across this comment. In discussing apologists appealing to the younger generation, bluebell made a comment about Kwaku, to which Bob replied: The problem is not Kwaku but Cardon Ell...

I'm in Bob's stake, and they announced this in Church today. No cause was mentioned. I had only met him a few times shortly after moving into the stake 10+ years ago. Our paths never really crossed, and we never went out of our way to talk to each other. We had a mutual friend, so I'm 99% certain th...

It’s worth noting this profit is only one aspect of the Church’s holdings. Is it too technical to point out that an asset that increases in value isn't "profit" until it's sold? I mean, if you look at what homes in my neighborhood are selling for, I "profited" hundreds of thousands of dollars durin...
