Lem, whenever you're ready to take this crap back to spirit paradise just tell me and I'll quit posting here. One more time so everyone can see I'm willing to leave the terrestrial forum. Lem, whenever you're ready to take this crap show back to spirit paradise I'm more than willing to .
Take it there ANYWAY. You are more than welcome here, but leave the drama and personal tit for tats and oh how someone offended me and all the other bother you do in Spirit Paradise out of here is what we are saying. Sorry I yelled at you earlier in the other thread. There is no reason for bringing Spirit Paradise malarky here is what we mean. Thanks!
Oh wow!! Thank you for that sir! And I apologise for being an axxhole here in the terrestrial. So here's what I'll do for you. I'm going to bed now. When I wake up tomorrow I won't post here and you won't hear from me for 24hrs. I'll stay in spirit paradise and hopefully lem and doc cam will follow me back down there and we can work this out in spirit paradise. The only reason I'll come back is if they're still continuing the ongoing crap show here in the terrestrial. You seem like a really good guy and I like your mustache, so I'll leave just for you. Does that seem fair?
But I would like to ask you guys some questions in the future. Just gotta figure out what to ask. Thanks

NO. The ONLY reason you will come back is to discuss the topic here. Keep the drama and personal stuff not related to Mormonism down there. Here we have good and ongoing discussions about Mormonism. It isn't hard to grasp. You don't keep coming back here and interrupting with personal arguments about irrelevant stuff here. You do that there. Thanks man, and have a great day!

Well, that's disappointing. Here's how I see it. There's a thread here that you are not pleased to have in the terrestrial forum. You see me as part of the problem. Since you apologized to me I apologized to you and offered to leave the terrestrial for 24hrs to give this place a one day cool off period, hopefully. During that time you could've messaged doc cam and said, hey, Mike is out of here, could you stop picking on ceeboo so he doesn't come back?? You could've messaged lem and said, hey, this thread you started has backfired miserably, Mike is out of here, can you take this fight back down to spirit paradise?? You could've messaged me and said thanks for leaving, anything you need me to do?? And I would've said, yeah! Tell doc cam to stop picking on ceeboo and ask him to stop posting pictures of a maga baby in the terrestrial and I'll keep my butt in the spirit paradise. There's all kinds of ways you could've dealt with a cool off period. You could've just done absolutely nothing and watched to see if everyone calmed down. But instead, you reject my offer and then start explaining to me what I will and won't do. You're not my dad sir. Why are you capitalizing "NO" and "ONLY"? Do you actually believe that's helping? You didn't even need to respond! If you would've just let my offer stand, I wouldn't be typing this response back to you. I would've stayed in spirit paradise.

Mike, Neither Philo nor anyone else is responsible for how you choose to behave. You, and only you, are responsible for your choices. Nobody cares where you post, as long as you follow the rules for the specific sub-forum you choose to post in.
No one here has any incentive to make a deal with you over your behavior. You do you. I do me. Philo does Philo. It’s not hard.
You’ve described yourself as having come through a faith crisis. I hope that you are. But having watched lots and lots of LDS folks go through faith crises, odds are that you aren’t done yet. Not even close.
There are very good and wise folks here who would be happy to help you through that, should you need it. But right now, you’re pissing in their cornflakes. How does that make any sense?
Just worry about Mike’s behavior. Stop trying to make others behave in ways that you want them to behave. Take responsibility for all of your own behavior and only your own behavior. If you do, I’m betting you’ll form some good relationships that make this an interesting place to hang out.

Welcome, Mike.
Why are you guys so personally upset that most of us in the Terrestrial forum have no desire whatsoever to peek into the Paradise forum and pretend that drama is interesting? I mean I get Lem brought it here into one thread when she talked about a couple of trolls, which I assume is you and Cultellus. Can we at minimum leave it in that thread?
Also, I hate to be that guy, but, could you please fix all of your "could ofs" to "could haves"? It's eating at me like nothing has before.

Yep, typical LDS culture boundary issues.

And saying thank you for all the wonderful content here on the terrestrial forum. I joined this board about a month ago and I've really enjoyed reading through some of the interesting post found here because I don't get to discuss topics in my daily life that I find here in the terrestrial. But up till today I've stayed down in spirit paradise where I belong. Lem called me up here by calling me a troll in front of all you guys and I thought it would be a good time to introduce myself. I'm a lifelong Mormon who just exited a faith crisis and I've decided to stay a member of the church for now. The past 9 months I've probably watched or listened to at least 1000hrs of podcast. I've ordered way to many books from eBay that I don't need including a first addition Mormon Doctrine by Bruce R that cost me $180. Yes, I know I'm an idiot for buying that book, trust me, my wife has told me I'm an idiot for that purchase at least a dozen times

. Don't tell my wife but I also bought the exact kind of Bible that Joseph apparently used to help him in his translation. I'm not going to tell you what I paid for it in case my wife is reading this. I'm at peace with my decision to stay in the church even though Dr. Shades accused me of starting my own religion apparently because I have drifted so far away from "mainstream" Mormon beliefs. I still love ya Dr. Shades

. Anyways! If I contribute here I'm leaving all the spirit paradise drama in spirit paradise, in my opinion there's no need for that crap to come up here. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Welcome,
I too collect bibles that Joseph Smith owned. From what I know he owned three different ones. The one you metion must be the Phinney Bible as it was the one he is known to have owned in 1829 when he was working of the translation of the Bible.. Can you tell me what year it is? I happen to own several.

This so true, I have enough trouble trying to be me I don't recommend anyone else trying it.

I'm not sure if you would be interested in sharing more information about your Bible collection, but if you would be, I would really enjoy learning a lot more about it. Perhaps a new thread? (If you are interested)
by the way - How do we know what bibles Joseph Smith owned?
Thanks!
