What Mormon Stories is (and isn't) Trying to Do

Post by _mormonstories »

For the Maxwell/FAIR folks, and anyone else who wants to understand what we're trying to do (and NOT trying to do) with Mormon Stories and the Open Stories Foundation.

I feel like this link has made it's way into the hands of Lucy Harris.

No. But I'm close.

I sure got my ass handed to me last night.

I'd be interested to know this information. But when I saw that the link leads to a podcast over half an hour long, I am afraid my interest waned. I really would far rather see the same stuff in print, since I am a very rapid reader.

On the other hand, from the few minutes I did watch I learned how to pronounce John Dehlin's surname, so I suppose that the link did something for me.

That's the problem with this supernatural stuff, it doesn't really solve anything. It's a placeholder for ignorance.

Update... Here you go http://www.mormondialogue.org/topic/58141-how-critical-information-affects-members-of-the-church/


Could you post the actual text, at least the juicy bits, since some of us can not view the board, at all.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks,

I am utterly dumbfounded that you still have an unbanned account. They generally ban rather quickly.
