Why the goal-setting craze of 1970?
I've asked this question elsewhere trying to understand the Mormon mentality. I'll ask it here also.

Re: Mormon assertions that science can't touch their truth claims

Re: Mormonism Live tonight - Bonnie Cordon child homicide case
There are no responses here yet mostly because there are no adequate words to express the horror.

Symbolic of what? They really don't want you to figure it out.
Yes, the endowment is symbolic. Apparently this is one of the new catch phrases. But in typical Mormon fashion, they totally co-opt the concept so bad that they completely turn it on its head. The ultimate meaning of the endowment is to realize that you don't need the church at all. That is the wors...

Re: If you stopped being a TBM after age 60, why? Pick 2

Re: It is Inappropriate to Ask Questions
I wonder, seriously, how many boys and men has Bednar questioned regarding whether and if they touch their privates?

Re: Disrobing temple patrons before letting EMS transport them
I know what you all are saying. HOWEVER: It's (a) not hard to rip off a bonnet and robe, and (b) it is a logical thing to do while waiting for the ambulance. I hardly think that people are going to waste precious time disrobing a victim before calling an ambulance. And (c) the paramedics would be gr...
