Are these sins forgiveable?  Really depends on the knowledge of the sinner and the Lord.  The Lord will forgive whom He will forgive (as shared already).
 
Have people murdered and not found forgiveness in this life and in the next?  Yes, David who killed Uriah, did not find forgiveness for his murder, for he fell from his exaltation.
 
Moses murdered, some argue self-defense or saving another life, and it would appear he found forgiveness.
 
These however, are left into the hands of those with the keys to properly determine if they should find forgiveness.

I'd speak up, and contact the appropriate people, as already mentioned.
 
I'm glad I don't have to deal with these, though, as I recall having gone with a few friends to one or two back in the day. Not sure about now, but when I had gone it was a meat market, you couldn't just have a good time without being hit on real bad. I can't say that I felt the spirit at all when I went.

Why would a natural history museum need to have a religious/spiritual feel to it?

The Mazda 5 sports van is a good gasoline vehicle choice.  It seats 6 including the driver.  Maintenance records are pretty good on them.  It gets about 25 miles to the gallon.  I personally dislike vehicles that do not have good fuel mileage.  I forsee $4.50 per gallon prices.
 
I am looking into a compressed natural gas car since we have so many fueling stations in Utah.  It costs about $1.75 per gallon equivilant presently to drive.  Only downside is you cannot do a cross country trip with one.  I think there is a future in natural gas.  You can create it out of waste and feces and it burns so much cleaner than gasoline.

We love to go camping in our minivan, but we've never really taken it anywhere I'd consider very "off-road," the closest thing to that being driving down fields-with-tire-ruts on-either-side type roads and somewhat rough dirt/gravel roads. I really shy away from large puddles because it is hard to tell how deep they are.
 
During the winter the traction control works wonders in drifted snow piles.

We have an odyssey, love it, 11 years old. Did have some of the transmission overhauled but it was a recall issue. We got the towing package too. Had a Toyota Sienna too and liked it. 
 
Has been all over the US, on campouts, etc. Husband asked me if I wanted to downsize since kids all gone and said no.  Just so nice for hauling stuff and good in the snow. I could keep going...:)

Minivans are awesome.  People rag on them all the time, but I don't care.  They are just too practical to be uncool.

I think a good 10-15 seconds, at least for the 2001; and no amount of pulling/tugging/shoving could make it go faster.  I really felt trapped.  Not a happy place to be.
 
I wouldn't take my Sienna off-roading or mudding or anything; but I've been on (dry) dirt roads en route to a campground or extended family cabin and didn't have any problems.  I also haven't really missed AWD/4X4 in the Utah snows, either.

We had a dodge grand caravan that lasted 250,000 + miles.  We gave our daughter our last one that has 110,000K +.  With that we are done with the minivan days.  Yeah!!!!!!!!!!  Getting rid of the minivan has made me feel like I have reclaimed part of myself.  I don't have anything fancy, just a Ford Explorer, but I love it.

I agree with SpiritDragon re the doors.  About 3 years ago I was sitting in the back of a 2001 Odyssey when we saw a tractor-trailer ahead of us roll over.  We pulled over to give assistance, and I lost a good 10-15 seconds waiting for that dag-blasted door to open.  That pretty much killed the charm of the Odyssey for me--IMHO, those power doors are a safety issue in an emergency.  (Also, anecdotally, pretty much everyone I can think of who has an Odyssey had to have the transmission re-done at some point).
 
We drive a 2001 Toyota Sienna (with MANUAL doors!) and have had no complaints except for a pitifully small luggage area which I think has been re-designed in later models.  Our next minivan will probably also be a Sienna.  For gas mileage/efficiency reasons, I wouldn't go with an SUV unless I was planning on regularly using it to pull a boat or other heavy trailer.

My wife and I have absolutely loved our odyssey. We bought it when our car was written off after my wife was broad-sided around five years ago. It does almost as well for gas mileage as our previous cavalier did and we love having the room to throw stuff in and go. Ours is a 1999 model and hasn't had any thing major go wrong (Knocking on wood) in it's 15 year life.
 
As for the power doors they can be as much of a nuisance as a blessing at times. They are real slow which means if you have multiple stops and kids want to jump out quick and return that they won't work so well, and the vehicle needs to be in park for them to open and close so you can't just pull over and open the doors and be on your way. These are generally minor things though as long as you remember them. More annoyingly they can sometimes get the sensors dirty and think they can't close. In a pinch you can switch the doors to manual mode and close them by hand until you can get them cleaned.
 
All in all I think it's a great vehicle.

Out of curiosity I visited OWE, and despite their preface claiming to expose the false teachings of Ordain Women, I feel it is a page dedicated to slamming Kate Kelly and belittling her supporters. There are plenty of people that don't agree with Kate Kelly and Ordain Women, my parents and most of my family feel this way, but none of them are feeding into this vicious cycle of belittlement. I think the OWE page harbours a lot of hate.

Some friends and I had a debate on whether or not it's acceptable for a housewife to (a) ask her husband for help with chores and (b) take hiatus from chores if she's at her wit's end and needs a break. Most of my friends are working mothers and only two of us are actual "housewives" -- me being one of them.
So, it was argued that if a husband doesn't get to have his wife show up at work to relieve him or bail him out of job duties - then a wife shouldn't expect that luxury either - and is responsible to manage the household while her husband is out being the breadwinner. It was also argued that if a husband doesn't get to stay home from work due to a "bad day", then the wife doesn't get to have "bad days" either, and should be expected to fulfil all the duties that is expected of a housewife.
Okay, what do you think? In my marriage, efforts aren't always tit for tat. There are times when I need my husband's help and he gives me everything he has (whether that's physical strength or inner strength) - and I don't have much to return in that moment. Maybe I'm missing what my friends were trying to convey to me.

The wedding reception is the least of your worries. If your fiance had/is experiencing emotional/psychological abuse from her father be prepared to deal with a whole lot of underlined issues and behavioral problems after you two get married (if you haven't seen the signs as yet). It is not going to be easy and you shouldn't take it personal but instead get the help she might need from you, good relatives and even a counselor if necessary.

Hi, Apex!
 
Your wife knows what your father-in-law is like. Don't bad-mouth him. Don't speak badly of him. Let her.
 
He is not obligated to pay for anything. He does not owe you that. Just accept that your wedding will be difficult, support your wife and tell her how much you love her.
 
If you bad mouth her father, even if you're right, it will make your wife feel bad. It will not make him feel bad. It will accomplish nothing but make your wife even more stressed out. Do not talk to the father-in-law. It will only make things worse between you and him.
 
Let it go. I'm sorry he won't help. That's a shame.

Backroads, that's kind of my point.
 
I would guess most that go through the trouble of being endowed and wearing garments, appreciate the meaning and symbolism that garments represent, even if they hate the fabric or fashion statement they make (to yourself).

2 1/2 hours is insane. 1 1/2 hours is too long. If you're going that long, your bishop isn't leading the meeting properly and needs to learn time management skills. If it were me, I would just excuse myself and leave unless there is a clear need for me to remain in the meeting. If you do that enough, the bishop will start thinking about how valuable your time is and consider respecting it by conducting ward business in a timely manner.

Origin is me and my mad skills freestyle climbing. I'm just a beginner, just to note lol.

Pam, if you don't like seeing a woman playing a strong role where she is in battle and engaging in fight scenes, then yeh, might have an issue with this one. I wouldn't recommend it for "young children" solely on the reason that some scenes are a bit frightening.

His thoughts on benefits were:
 
No paying to keep a car "alive", just paying to enjoy a car in good condition. 
You don't have the guilt of committing to a car, i.e.. "I have to keep this car about because I still owe one it or I just paid it off and now I have to keep it to make it all worth it, etc."
There's usually a maintenance perk from the company.
You don't have to get bored with your car.
You're not giving much wear-n-tear to a car.
 
 
It's not for everyone, but there are benefits to it.

Never gone this route, but I've always wanted to. I took a couple of car classes in college and the professor was a big believer in leasing for many situations. 
 
Last month, Husband and I said heck with it and paid off our two car loans in one big swoop.  So far it's been a great decision and left us more comfortable for house shopping.

I haven't talked to her about CF in any sort of depth at this point. It will probably be next week when I see her again. Her daughter and my daughter are in an extracurricular programme together. The mother is always wearing her CF gear tee, advertising it, I think her vehicle promotes it too but I could be imagining that part. She looks great, nice muscle tone. I have never been a fan of women being toned muscularly, but my opinion is changing, as I've been following a friend on Facebook that lives in California and is super competitive - we actually used to train together a LONG time ago doing cross country run. I could probably stand to beef up a bit.
