I stayed away from this latest round of drama. Seems John Dehlin attracts it. However I did listen to the podcast RFM did about JK trying to get him disbarred. I will take it at face value that JK did not bring up any sexual harassment in the board meeting. I did verify on RFM's Facebook page that J...

I only had a late and peripheral interest in the great thread, but I took away a point from Marcus that was new to me. The worst part of Dehlin's behavior from a professional point of view was something that one could easily overlook (at least I did) because it doesn't fit the trope of the leering ...

I bet the county/state/federal/international governing bodies recognize Cody's zoning ordinances more readily than that the Brighamite church is god's one and only true and living church?

Re: Jim Jordan questioning the timing, I read that RICO cases pretty much have to be proven before charging so the prosecution is ready, and they've done their homework.

The mission was something like 2/3rds car areas and 1/3 bike. My first area was the whole ward which at ti...

I only had the missionaries come by once since I stopped attending. It was shortly after the November policy and I was livid with the church. I didn't mean to take it out on them, but I was very agitated when I questioned if they even knew about the November policy. They did, and I think they at lea...

Since my wife is Swedish the answer is clearly yes from me. My in-laws live in the small town that is considered Frida's hometown.

The family is shocked and devastated per KSL. To borrow a phrase these types like to say to minorities, just comply with the cops and you won't have any problems. The neighbor said she could hear him refusing to leave his home when asked by authorities. We will never know, but I wonder if the guy me...

I am with Philo Sofee, seems like with his wife passing and all I hope for a dignified and peaceful exit for him. Interestingly his death would significantly raise the chance of Uchtdorf ascending the throne. I believe the semi-generic naïve actuarial table simulations put Nelson -> Oaks -> Holland ...
