  1. Peanutterrier2009... Please understand that JudoMinja is talking about a potential possibility. In order for that to even come close to happening is that the EX must be worthy. If she is not worthy then will not happen (Your husband must be worthy too but I am assuming that). And if she is worthy she must not move on to someone else. And finally they both must still want to be sealed together. The Lord will not force two people to be together. Issues like this is one of the reason the First Presidency is involved in making sure it is done right and for the right reasons
  2. I was born and raised in the Phoenix/Mesa area. My ward in North Phoenix currently shares the building with a singles ward. While it as been a long time since my single days the population seems sizable. ASU is a big draw for those around your age
  3. The hard part in mixed faith marriages is the implied or unspoken expectations. In the case of you and your husband there should not be any. Everything is going to be new to both of you. Therefore as things come up you can discuss it together and work out a solution that works for you. As for the church in NYC I can't speak from personal experience for that area. But generally you get out of things what you put into them. Just remember they are on the same road you are thinking about taking and just a prone to stumble and needing a helping hand now and then as well.
  4. Guys... This is a thread on advising/helping someone deal with gay family members... If you want to discuss hormones or other things that you think might cause problems start your own thread for it in the discussion forums
  5. I'd say don't confuse opportunity with compulsion. The sealing power offers the opportunity but God does not compel.
  6. Wow... Kirstie beat Chelsea... that is just Wow
  7. It is correct... just incomplete.. The fetus has the XY and starts developing as female, then the XY kicks in with the hormones to do their job... Thus there are quiet a few places it can get messed up
  8. It can be done and done successfully... But you have to be able to overcome any preconceived notions/disappointments when the 'past' is revealed in order to move forward. In the case of your brother while it is his choice... he should not do so unless he can leave her past in the past. Marriage requires to much work and sacrifice from both parties to add the additional weight of trying to live up to what is now clearly an impossible expectation.
  9. Sorry if I read more into your post then you intended
  10. What case are you trying to make Suzie?? Are you trying to hint at a cover up? Because if so the time between when the Church knew for a fact and the time the molester was arrested was about two weeks according to the facts presented in the article. If it was some kind of coverup they did poorly. And within that two week period the church was acting to take steps protect the boy. How did they do so... By informing the parents. Guess what the principals and concepts of the religion is to strengthen and support families. Give them the tools and information needed to make good choices for themselves, and to only step in if the family is failing in some way. The boy's parents were clearly capable of protecting their son. All they needed was the confirmation which the church gave them when it found out. And yet after the church is cleared by the police you still seem to be looking to throw dirt on the men involved
  11. Hey everyone, I am hoping to tap into the wide range of real life experience here. My middle son has always had problems with reading and writing/spelling. For the longest time we figured he just wasn't interested and he can be more then a little flighty. As he has moved up through the grades it has only gotten worse. Now my wife and I are not the kind of parents that jump to some kind of medical condition every little thing, but at the same time we don't want to miss a valid condition that when known can be adapted to. This doesn't seem to be correctable through more personal parental help with his studies. So when we started looking around we found this Symptoms of Dyslexia Reading through that list and comparing it to how he has does in scripture and other reading as well as in school work he does seem to hit a majority of the symptoms for Dyslexia. My questions are, what else could it be? (Assuming it is something) And if it is dyslexia how can you know for sure, and how to you adapt? Thanks
  12. We do not need to be dragging every kink out of is hidden place to parade it in front of young/impressionable minds... We do need to do a better job of teaching the basics. The basic physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of sex and there impact on the person and the person's partner. Once a person has a solid grasp of the basics, then when they encounter the various kinky possibilities, they will have foundation on which to correctly judge the value and impact of what they find
  13. Most Evangelicals will wake up with a sigh for their kooky brothers and sisters who didn't heed the warning that no one knows the day or hour... The small group making the claims will do what they did before... "Oh must have made a mistake in the math" and return to their calculations to come up with another date
  14. This thread was nearly three years dead before being rudely awakened... Thread Closed
  15. Update for those still interested Susan Brock molestation case: LDS bishops won't be charged
  16. Because we didn't want you to play No worries... once I figure out the mass delete button I can correct that for you
  17. Its the kind of Forums were the mod delete posts whose sole purpose is to inflate post count.
  18. I don't watch Idol myself, but the whole premise of these types of shows is to hook the audience in with the idea that they can 'make a difference' With DWTS its always been a 50/50 split between judges and viewers. The winner take all is really just a sneaky way of having the judges grant a type of immunity, without looking like that are granting an immunity. I am not against the idea of the judges being able to do so... just the sneaky way its being used. We are never given the break down of the viewer votes so we can't see who might be border line and work to boost them.
  19. I tend you use a portable version of Firefox, but then I jump between PCs alot and I like to take my stuff with me... Older versions of the portable Firefox can be found here Localization | PortableApps.com - Portable software for USB, portable and cloud drives Yeah I know not exactly what you were looking for
  20. Heh... I think Bruno's comment about Ralph's dance was way out of line. (I am pretty sure I can't even repeat it here) I agree that the other three are better dancers. I am hearing rumors that the Winner Take all Cha Cha... has been added to help the better but not so popular dancers avoid elimination. (There has been some upsets in the past due to this) I am not so sure I totally like that idea
  21. Welcome... Sounds like we got hit by the same virus
  22. I recently had virus trouble of my own... Turned out, it turn on the hidden attribute of some of my files... Made them disappear until I made it show hidden files. Could this be your problem?
  23. I have pics of me and my sons in white for their baptisms... Didn't post it to facebook... did put on a blog though
  24. Interesting.... Back to the initial question then... Does the Church of Christ have a set of non-negotiables? It sounded like it might not..
