by the way, did you know that apparently the D&C confirms string theory?

LOL. I like string theory, but don't agree completely. I have some ideas of my own about all of this. I think vibrations can occur in non-matter space which produces the effect of mass. Or the appearance of mass. Just like, you can never pin point the electron in an atom, you can only show the probability of an electron occurring, or like when you can either calculate the velocity of something in the quantum world or the position, you cannot calculate both simultaneously. So there isn't actually an existence, just a variation in probability of existence. It's pretty neat actually. I wish I had the smarts to just absorb it all.
I can't remember if I answered this poll. Well, just in case I won't check a radio button. Maybe this will make up for quaker's lie.
Anyway, the answer is
Ph.D. in mathematics from UCLA.
I don't think of myself as a "bright" since the demand for exclusion of "mystical elements" is too vague. I occasionally find myself in what I call a mystical mood. My sensibility is basically naturalistic but I am not inclined to make some final self limiting declaration of allegiance.
I would rather say that I tend to be rational and skeptical but not closed minded. I believe in the value of states of mental play where my usual assumptions are are suspended or questioned or held more loosely.

when believers want to give their claims more weight, they dress these claims up in scientific terms. When believers want to belittle atheism or secular humanism, they call it a "religion". -Beastie

Sounds like either really great sex or a morphine drip.
(Nevo, Jan 23) And the Melchizedek Priesthood may not have been restored until the summer of 1830, several months after the organization of the Church.
