Re: Ed Goble Podcast now up

First 14 minutes is nothing but idle chat about a variety of things that don't matter to anyone other than the two people talking. Skip those 14 minutes and do anything else. Go to the toilet. Wash the dishes. Vacuum the carpet. Anything would prove more interesting. Christ Jesus! :neutral: If you ...

The arson cases cast a shadow on one of those acronyms.
Which arson cases?
There were at least two that occurred when that acronym was going around. One in St George and one in Provo.

You probably don't want to know BIDWFT, or MFMC
I had to look that first one up, but guessed the second. ;)

Re: Bokovoy on Mormon Stories

Ah that makes sense. I have him on Facebook and it seems like he is pretty well done, but those interviews being from 2018 would explain a lot. I have him on Facebook also. In fact I use one of his quotes often. What do you call an organization that has to tell its members every six months to stay ...

Re: Bokovoy on Mormon Stories

The pod cast is a edited re-run from the 2018 series. I believe John is combining 7 or 8 episodes into 3. David is a good person for sure, brilliant mind. In the 1st interview, in my opinion, he is all over the place. He had just stopped attending church but still has a great love for it. Again in ...

Re: Logic and Dan Peterson arguments.

Extraordinary claims require Extraordinary evidence. Someone seeing someone at a party or a person having a pulse is not extraordinary. This is simply Sagan's dragon in a garage from Demon Haunted World. Subjective internal proof can be used to justify Roland the closet goblin, alien abductions and ...

Re: Gemli explains...

In keeping with the title and intent of the thread I looked for gemli's next comment to post, but he hasn't added anything recently, so I looked back a little to see his earlier thoughts on stories. This one adds only the slightest bit of argument, but on the other hand it does seem to indicate his...

Re: Gemli explains...

Straight from Sic et Non today and keeping with the theme of this thread we seem to go straight back to stories. Not only that, Peterson is saying that “stories” is the best they’ve got. Here is something that puzzles me. Why do believers shy away from the things God commands? Mormon god commands t...
