“If I were placed on a cannibal island and given a task of civilizing its people,” Brigham is said to have remarked, “I should straightway build a theatre.” I suppose showing them past productions of Saturday's Voyeur and The Book of Mormon might lighten the mood and give them a chance to try funer...

This calls for some response by Shulem. Penises, Joseph Smith, and the Book of Abraham, oh my.

I used to stop by Spence Kimball's house once a week to give a ride to his sister-in-law. The Kimballs would always invite me in and chat with me while we waited. They were very kind people.

Michelangelo's statue David can be shown in Salt Lake if you cover its nakedness with LDS garments and the statue keeps them on day and night.

Right now outside, at 9:50 PM, it is way dark. That proves the absence of light is true. A wise enough observation to be the basis of an Interpreter article (especially if you mention something about a probability theory and Utero-Aztecan). It's wondrous experiences like this eclipse that make me sa...

I'm guessing that Shades or Gadianton would know how to do this. I understand your concern for someone who has a fatal diagnosis.

I just don't understand the level of hostility and ugliness that Boylan displays in the linked thread. I mean, WOW!!! Yikes!!! Don't make things so personal. Mormons are allowed to engage in both awful and unethical behavior if it is in defense of their church. Remember their mantra as they crawl t...
