Re: Lars Nielsen's "How the Book of Mormon Came to Pass"
Thanks for the review, Reverend. I think I'll give it a pass. The take home may be that whatever makes a person a "true believer" persists through a change of belief. I was struck by the way his desire to be known as a revealer of mysteries has remained constant throughout. I guess he joins the ran...

Re: The Court Just Sealed Everyone’s Fate, Including Its Own
You're equivocating on the term "democracy." We all know that democracy comes in several flavors, only one of which is "direct democracy." You are reacting to the term "democracy" as if Gadianton had said "direct democracy." But you should know better from context. Pretending that "democracy" and "...

Re: doubtingthomas’s topics MEGATHREAD
If I'm right, then arguing with you about your relationship posts makes me complicit in the harm you are inflicting on yourself. There is nothing I can say that will have any positive impact.

Re: doubtingthomas’s topics MEGATHREAD
So why don't you just acknowledge what is painfully obvious to anyone who reads the thread? With all due respect, you always crucify me when I am not precise with my wording. I never admitted to that, so Dr. Exile shouldn't accuse me of admitting things I didn't admit to, even if it's obvious what ...

1) Can you quote the language in the paper that supports your claim that "cognitive skills begin to decline at age 45?" Jesus Christ, wrong study. https://www.bmj.com/content/344/bmj.d7622 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7812437/ OK, please see Shades' unanswered question about how the...

(2) A child shall not be found to be a person described by this subdivision solely due to any of the following: (A) Homelessness or the lack of ...
