The megathread's purpose is to reverse your tendency to turn the Spirit Paradise forum into a trash can.
And such BS. I could've invited real extremists to participate on this board long ago if I had the intention of turning the forum into a trash can.

Worry not, people can read your posts within this thread with precisely the same ease that they can outside of it.
A trash can for sharing news articles and studies? I shared a very important article published in Washington Post about mental health, how is that trash?

The Spirit Paradise is turning turns into a trash can with the way Marcus and others react. Those people aren't interested in an honest discussion.

BS!

I doubt he will. I think he simply says whatever he thinks will get people to pay attention to him.
Send me your snapchat to I can prove that I am seeing a therapist.

And why the hell does it matter? There's nothing wrong with me and I am simply sharing studies and news articles.
I didn't ask for proof that you are seeing a therapist. It matters to me because I'm worried about you.

Thanks, but you don't have to be.

Hugh Nibley claimed he bumped into Adolf Hitler, Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill, Gertrude Stein, and the Grand Duke Vladimir Romanoff. Dishonesty is baked into Mormonism.

"How 'ghosting' is linked to mental health" - Washington Post

https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2 ... al-health/

"And as online dating, dating apps and other social technologies grow in popularity, so does the likelihood that someone is left on read after a few dates. Yet despite its frequent occurrence, little is known about why people ghost or the psychological effects of this social phenomenon."

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2 ... 113427.htm

And who is 150% more likely to ghost? :lol:

This new information is extremely important and hopefully, this thread doesn't get thrown into the trash can (Megathread).
But of course, nobody cares.

Are you trying to be funny?

And thank you for not caring about the mental health of young people. Nobody has given me an opinion about that Washington Post article.
