  1. It's not a sin. But because of their life experience, much of their counsel is wise.
  2. They're big sellers. The biggest. I think that includes dining out.
  3. I would re join the church so you can begin your Eternal progression. It will be difficult as as a gay person you will be required to be chaste. But I believe your rewards would be worth it.
  4. Katie, If it was only the one time affair (which I doubt), that might be survivable. But coupled with the other behaviors, you need to take your head out of the sand and get rid of this loser.
  5. People have wide choices when they dine out. Cola drinks outsell them all.
  6. I was lucky in this. I married someone from a foreign country. Only occasionally saw my in laws. We got along great!
  7. I have no idea where you live. But a lot of this is regional. Cola drinks are top sellers in the US.
  8. IMNSHO, we should act as if He’s coming tomorrow.
  9. Not sure about temple rules. It would seem to me that any confirmation done by a Melchizedek priesthood holder would be valid. On the other hand, if one is not endowed, access to many parts of the temple would be limited. Likely you should not have been allowed in the confirmation area, even though in our local temple here, it’s just another room near the baptistery. Maybe a technicality?
  10. Be straight up. This is a minor problem that won’t preclude you from a mission experience.
  11. Not to mention artichoke hearts and olives. Sorry I couldn’t answer the poll, as none of the ingredients are my favorites.
  12. Th3 short answer is yes. One must accept the Saviours name of course as a condition of baptism Unless SS you are a murderer.
  13. If he will change his habits because you want him to, use that to your advantage. Glad to read you latest post. Hopefully, you can keep it all together for the children Alcoholism is to some degree hereditary, so be careful of that aspect of his “reformation “. Alcoholics get real good at hiding their habit. Good luck!
  14. Why is the garment question even part of the temple interview. Is it truly the Bishops or anyone else’s business?
  15. Catholics are generally very tolerant of other Christian religions. Remember it started as the true church. The doctrine is fairly close to ours. I wouldnt look look for problems where there may be none.
  16. The Golden Rule: Do unto others, before they do unto you.😉
  17. The National Health Service of the U.K. dispenses “free” health care in that country. It is a big political football. One of my best friend’s wife just sold her business there. Her business? Health insurance. So if one really wants decent health care in Britain, one pays to a private system. There is a reason for that.......
  18. Good for you!
  19. Dump this choking loser...You can obviously do much betterIMHO.
  20. Socialism always has good intentions. See where it leads in every case, so far.
  21. The prophets of the current generation are only infallible when they speak ex cathedra. Those sayings are found in the Doctrine and Covenants.
  22. I had no idea that one could buy a new car for $12.5K as recently as 2015. You are to be congratulated.
  23. Can’t believe three pages about a hypothetical that will never happen.🤡
  24. Jmom Seems like you have a fairly normal marriage with similar problems to most people. I don’t believe, given the circumstances of your situation, that you will find the grass any greener by leaving the marriage. It does no appear unsalvageable. You have a child, and the child’s welfare should be your main focus. For both of you. God would want the child raised in an LDS home as far as possible. And it does seem possible. Your husband has joined the church, so he has/is making some effort. You should meet him halfway. Try going back to counseling
