I'm working on a fit body these days and doughnuts will not help that. The TK will be full of fit bodies and I must prepare myself so I can be worthy to enter that level of heaven!

Noah's flood, shnoah's flood. Who cares?!

Funny, I take your message to be that coffee good, donuts bad for having a fit body--with which I agree.

The last 4 months of my mission, I was in the mission office with the mission pres. He'd bring in donuts, but never coffee. He was bringing us what was bad for having a fit bod.

SP,

Daniel Craig and Paul Newman will be drinking coffee in the TK. My goal is to live near them for eternity. I aim high. :)

No it doesn't. Caffeine is not mentioned at all in the WoW or the TR interview.

bcspace wrote:Sure it does. When asked if you have a testimony in the restoration of the gospel and if you sustain the president of the Church and the twelve as prophets, seers, and revelators, you are accepting the truth claims they represent and doctrines they establish.

bcspace wrote:Depends on what you mean by that. IF you mean something that is actually doctrine, then sure.

Amazing how bcspace can talk right passed what his interviewing priesthood authority would mean by the questions asked.

bcspace, your definition of doctrine is what COJCOLDS prints. It's publications specify the actually-happened, literal global flood in Noah's time. So are you lying if you answer your TR interview question about believing the doctrine when you take exception to the literal global flood?

Are you worthy to hold a TR if you are lying in answering that question?
Or can you rationalize yourself out of anything?

Gonna get your abs ribbed are you?

It's a worthy goal.

I'd like to be swilling the devil's wake up with Sienna Miller for eternity. Will she be in the TK?

How many children under the age of accountability do you suppose would have drowned in a literal worldwide flood that only eight people survived?

Did rainbows exist before the flood (which the Church states happened between 2,000 and 3,000 bc?

Lizard,

Let's say the flood only drowned one under age child.
Do you think that's acceptable for God to drown that innocent child?
