Re: Why Guns Germs and Steel so devastating?
Excellent summary of the book. I think John Larsen did a Mormon Expression podcast about this book and it was fascinating if I remember right. He did, along with our Cinepro, Sethbag and The Dude. It was fun to hear some of MDD's posters run a book club discussion on it. It's in the link I posted i...

Re: DCP's ongoing problem with plagiarism
I'm not aware of the standards used by the Deseret News , but I've found a few similarities between their column on the Byodo-In Temple and Wikipedia entries on the Byodo-In Temple and Amitabha . Here is a comparison of selected passages: [SNIP] Wow. Wikipedia?? SMH. If you must write Mopologetics ...

Re: I am amazed at how strong the Church in spite of y'all
I am sitting in Stake Priesthood Leadership meeting right now and am struck by how strong the Church is. No you're not "struck by how strong the Church is". If you were honest, you would admit you are bored out of your mind, asking yourself why in the hell you are stuck in a meeting on a ...

Re: The Fermi Paradox and It's Implications on Book of Mormo

So the absence of Nephite artifacts is evidence t...

Re: SLTrib wins Pulitzer for reports on BYU sex assault vict
the Mormon newsroom, of course, had a different opinion: This is analogous to what is known in the trade as “gotcha journalism” — a practice unworthy of any serious newspaper seeking for balance in its reporting. ouch, it burns. Next time the newsroom should just cry "fake news!" and call...
