  1. tam....i'm sorry...but i find it odd that you are only now reading the new testament...have read the old testament?....sorry.....but ok..your question....i agree with prisonchaplain....if you have the spirit...dont sweat it....and i happen to believe that there are angels to protect children that "investigate".....afterall....you said he (lower case) did visit you at the sleepover....but here you are...where are you...lol
  2. lol..rameumpton....good one...pink..you sweet thing.....calling is your heart seeking....because i believe that you are a seeker.....Knock and the door shall open.....just keep seeking....hugs
  3. hi tam....i agree with so much here.....so ...whats the difference between pride and arrogance....be proud of you son...but not arrogant about it.....be proud of yourself (to an extent...lol)...but not arrogant about it....is just feeling good knowing you've done a good job prideful?....hope not....but dont feel arrogant about it.....my 2cents.
  4. oh JK...lol...you are a pip....i mean that in a good way....lol.....my 2 cents?....perhaps not traditional mormon.....i think 50/50 is great....afterall...isnt a relationship 50/50?....if ti isnt...someone is being hurt
  5. man i love this site...kinda new here....good for you elph...and FT...you're good too...i went inactive for a while because, in my opinon, i saw many lds members that seemed to be training for the next inquisition...just as i am sure, many other christian denominations seem to be doing with their judgementalness....have seen too many memberws scorned for mistakes made.....oh, your less than me, i'm a proper morman......yea...great...good for you....and thanks for your christian spirit...and compassion and understanding. sometimes i feel that people that have been brought up in the church simply cannot understand many of the issues that may plague those of us who weren't. they simply lack the experience..and they'r attempt at understanding is merely academic. those who have survived war know a bit more about it than those who see it on tv. i believe in the church. and people have their own lessons to learn, at their own pace. ok by me. ok with you? then we're ok.
  6. so it's true that chocolate touches thr pleasure center of the brain!!!!!WHOA...WHAT A RUSH
  7. some of these are funny...great people here (i'm new).....really just a part time football fan..but go giants...and steelers....and college?....go navy...lol

  9. i agree with funky town...he's insecure .....people can do strnge things when they are scared...it was very rude of him to be sure and sweet souxz72...lol...you're funny as ever
  10. i believe so...before i joined the church, i studied many different religions searching for truth, and found the most truth, at the time, in a jain ashram (jainism is from india..but a bit different from hinduism) where i lived for 10 years...but i have loved jesus since childhood ( the only one in my family to be spiritual) and i learned great meditation techniques...and had many great experiences....and it all reinforced my relationship with jesus...strange as that might seem...it's true..then i found the lds church and what atrracted me to it most was how similar it was to what i learned about spiritual practice at the ashram.....take my experiences for whatever threy're worth to you
  11. hey brenton....man, do i understand how you feel....i started breaking out at about 16...badly...and i hated myself because of it...didnt date because i was so sure that i'd be turned down, because of my skin...at 18 i went into the navy and during boot camp, it got so bad that i looked like i was growing cherry tomatoes in my face....and back then there were NO meds to take for it...it was awful....and theres no sin in wanting to be accepted...see i felt unacceptable...mostly to myself....so...use an electric razor and go see the dr. and try to give yourself a break....you're not the only one with acne and certainly wont be the last
  12. hi pushka....i know how you feel...when i became a member i had similar feelings...and i agree with misshalfway..good intentions gone weird...dont worry...questions are answered in time...personally, i dont worry about anyone thinking they may know more about the gospel than i do...we all learn at our own pace...and as far as the rehearsed answers go...i felt that too as a new member...you'll get it though...with your own experiences in the church....welcome
