I would think that if you didn't learn the words you should not say it would be hard to say them. Growing up I went to school with lots of kids from Mexico, their parents working in California, some of the kids thought it was funny to teach them the curse words since they didn't know what they meant. If you don't learn them you don't have to worry about avoiding them. Ben Raines

Welcome and looking forward to your posts. Ben Raines

I am watching conference online right now. So cool. I remember as a boy going to the chapel to listen to conference, then as a young man to see conference. Now can watch at home or online. Ben Raines

For at least ten years it has been available online and in the Ensign. Online version is usually ready by Thursday following conference. Watch at lds.org and by Thursday all text of conference should be posted. Ben Raines

When Pam was a kid she just had to memorize Manti, St. George and Salt Lake City temples. Real easy back then. :) Ben Raines

Universeman, I believe, don't know but believe, that Snow's point is that you can believe that is how things operate, as far as universe operating without God's hand but to know that is impossible. As you have stated science does not even know what the bulk of the universe consists of. Welcome and have a great time posting. Ben Raines

If Survivor is a slice of humanity then humanity is between 21 and 30, physically fit young people and overweight older people. As an average based on this slice of humanity the over 40 crowd is less than 10 percent of the population. While I enjoy the show very much it is purely made to sell advertising. Marks to the crowd who wants to look at bikini girls and guys with washboard abs. Ben Raines

Sinbad is hilarious. I purchased some of his stuff on ITunes. Great comedy without the profanity. Ben Raines

Good to ask for a reference. Shows me the error of my ways. Missed it by this much. Latter-day Saints (LDS) / Mormon Statistics / Church of Jesus Christ Statistics

Anyone care to guess where in the world there is the largest LDS population percentage relative to the whole population? American Samoa. Ben Raines

Most likely would be sent to a mental institution and kept in a room by himself. Ben Raines

Hope you were able to sleep last night :) Ben Raines

Oh I donate time at several soup kitchens, homeless shelters, feed the homeless on the day after Thanksgiving and serve as a volunteer in Boy Scouts and I am a High Priest. What volunteer service do you offer? Ben Raines

Pam, Survivor is already in the can, filmed and won. Silly us. Ben Raines

I don't know if there is a doctrine about it. Ben Raines

and Glenn Beck? Ben Raines

JD, let me save you the trouble. I am not at work. On laptop so I will take care of it. Ben Raines

While we have differing opinions of what each of you believe and since it can not be discussed with out name calling, "liar, belligerent, etc". This thread is being closed. If forum posters can not cease to attack one another infractions will be issued. This is from my perspective and perhaps from a few other moderators. You want to state your opinion, "I like this guys writings, I believe them" or "I find this interesting or whatever" but to attack one another as liars, idiots, ignorant, etc. is not acceptable. This thread is being closed and more will be in the future that evolve to this. Ben Raines

Never heard that before. Could see it in a story book but not in the scriptures. Ben Raines

Been through this myself. Daughter was not unfaithful to son on law but he was abusive. Divorce. She left church. Lived with guy. They got married simple wedding in my other daughters house. I attended and love them both but did nothing more than be there all the way as emotional support. My best friend, Bishop, performed the wedding in my other daughter's house. Ben Raines

Multiple wives? Sheesh. One more to be down at the river washing the clothes on the rocks. :) Ben Raines

Welcome to the site. Ben Raines

It is on a case by case basis from the First Presidency. Not a lot of books or manuals that go in to it in detail. Typo corrected. Ben Raines

Pam, they can. I know of cases. Both living, divorced. No sealing cancellation, he can be sealed to another woman while his ex is living. She can not unless sealing canceled. Ben Raines

Yes he did. More variety during the show. Less of just Jay Ben Raines
