Re: ONLY begotten Son

How do LDS handle the description as Jesus as the Father's ONLY begotten son in light of the idea that we are all literally the progeny of God? Hi Tim, How I had it explained to me as a weee lad, is that God is the Father of all of our spirits (including that of Jesus). Jesus is the only one who al...

Re: I’ve got the perfect title for DCP’s new book

Generally, sure. But you would acknowledge that there are some posters here who actually get a rise out of still using her in real life name, no? And it is safe to say that you, Steuss, and I would agree that this is not right and urge people not to do it. Indeed. Although there have likely been in...

Re: I’ve got the perfect title for DCP’s new book

And did the mods rule that, in perpetuity, Rosebud forfeited all rights to her identity as a result of this post? Forfeited all rights to her identity? Lawdy. I don't know what the mods ruled (or if there was any type of discussion/ruling) on her later regretting her conscious and prolonged decisio...

Re: I’ve got the perfect title for DCP’s new book

So your argument is that if someone shares a link to a page that happens to include their in real life name, that supersedes the board doxxing rule and that poster forever gives up their right to remain anonymous? As someone who was there when it happened (and amongst the many board members here wh...

Re: The Quincy Account

Interesting, thank you. It doesn’t strike me as a word Joseph Smith would usually use. In the link to my blog, in the OP, I break down the 1828 Websters definitions (not in the Quincy part of the post, but further down). You are very welcome. I wish I could be more involved in this conversation, bu...

Re: The Quincy Account

For whatever it may be worth in the conversation, in a search of BOAP's Early Saints archive of journals, the word "Autograph" appears only once. It is from Josiah Quincy. BYU's missionary journal archive turns up 16 journals with the word. I didn't search through all of them to see how it was used,...

A wild Tarski appears.

It uses nostalgia.

Re: Russian Invasion of Ukraine

This horrifies me but only because I don't know if it's normal in battle or not. I've never heard of it. Where is my Army guy Cam?

Re: What exactly is Ukraine trying to defend?

A more apt analogy might be “Give me your car, your home, all personal belongings that you can’t carry on you, your culture, your ability to return to any form of previous normalcy, your occupation, your income, your national identity, a myriad of freedoms, and a bunch of other stuff... or I will ki...

Re: What exactly is Ukraine trying to defend?

DT, I really think you have to think about this through the lens of World War II and the Cold War. The world appeased Hitler for quite a while, and millions of Jews and others were slaughtered. You also should probably think about what Stalin did to Ukraine back in his day. Death and imprisonment w...
