Re: Public Space and Public Education

Non Angli sed and-jelly . What if England could be a land of angels? In an age characterised by pull-up-the-drawbridge self-centredness, hostility to difference and angry isolationism, is it possible to dream of a land where people acted like angels? A place where kindness, generosity of spirit, ge...

Re: Is being a "Mormon" as a Man (and Married LDS), Better in the Midst of Wokeism & Secular Culture?

Kishkumen, Thank you for sharing that about the cult of Academia. It fits with what I'm saying , that if human nature is human nature that is tribal and prone to cultish tendencies then what does it matter if one decides to be a New Order Mormon/ Cultural Mormon if they are already experiencing cul...

Re: Plea to support DCPs blog

Sign me up! I will gladly go rate everything DCP writes 5* and more. Just so more people read his blog. Just so he and the Mrs. have more fun nights out on the town. Just so that we can continue to watch all of the fun unfold at SeN. One of the tropes of modern vampire stories is that you shouldn't ...

Re: Gaslighting Planets

I had an institute teacher at USU that really influenced the way I see the impossible dilemma. He suggested that if Eve and Adam would have refrained from eating the fruit, Elohim would have eventually come back and said, "Okay, you have waited long enough. I now command you to eat the fruit." His ...

Re: Is being a "Mormon" as a Man (and Married LDS), Better in the Midst of Wokeism & Secular Culture?

In my opinion, the questioning of these things is what makes you a good progressive. I hope that a significant portion of the nature of progressivism is reframing, critiquing, adjusting, and questioning. If we don't do it to ourselves, we're doomed, because we're blindly walking off the edge of the...

Oh, and how could I forget our dealings with Rosebud, KK, and jp? Being told many times that I am an awful person for criticizing them in their righteous crusade to stop John Dehlin was probably the final nail in the coffin.

Re: Gaslighting Planets

Just to understand where you're coming from, would would a righteous non-gullible Adam have done? There is no righteous non-gullible Adam at that point. The whole story is about impossible dilemmas. The impossible dilemma of the fruit of knowledge. The impossible dilemma of being righteous in the e...

Re: Is being a "Mormon" as a Man (and Married LDS), Better in the Midst of Wokeism & Secular Culture?

I agree with what you wrote. But I do think that it's important to point out the excesses of Wokeism where it causes harm. Like pointing out the cult behavior of wokeism: https://newdiscourses.com/2020/06/cult- ... Or joining exmormon Jonathan Streeter over at "thoughts on things and stuff," on his...

Re: Gaslighting Planets

Hmmm. Was post-fall Adam gullible? He wasn't the one that fell for the religion the protestant preacher learned from Lucifer. Maybe Adam overprioritized the truth. Who's to say his life wouldn't have been better had he joined the community that was led by the confused preacher and Lucifer? They wer...

Re: Public Space and Public Education

Yesterday I made a comment on some Leftist site and I was shocked by the responses about the Hunter Biden issue. So yes, I'll admit there are really dumb people on both sides. But most religious people aren't "dumb" per se, they just have prioritized faith over science. And I don't know that this i...
