  1. There is much truth and goodness in many religions around the world. But to paraphrase Gordon B. Hinckley, we wish to add to the truth the others have already found. This IS Christ's Church, He heads this church. No other church has a living Prophet who receives direction and revelation for the world than this one. We don't say these things to brag, we say these things in gratitude for the blessings we receive in our lives as a result of these truths.
  2. I know this is going to be personal, but I normally walk out of my master bathroom and into my bedroom topless. Yes, it's true! Completely bare-chested! This usually happens when I have showered, and I will remain topless until I have finished my morning grooming rituals. I try to embarrass my children into leaving my room during this time, but they don't seem to mind. I honestly don't see what the big deal is. Familial modesty in the home is different from 'outsiders' modesty. We don't go around with our genitalia flopping about for everyone to see, but walking around in your own home in your underwear with your private parts covered is a normal part of home life. I saw my kids in various states of undress all the time they were growing up, and they have seen me in similar state of undress. Sorry, but if a child wakes me up in the middle of the night after having a bed dream, I'm not taking the time to fully dress before going to comfort them. They don't seem to have been traumatized by seeing me that way, their issues with me are more complex than that.
  3. Luckily, I only have to worry about my own faults and failings and whether or not I am worthy to be in the temple. I leave it to God to take care of those who lie to gain their earthly rewards.
  4. Since we're all in agreement with the trolling nature of the question and that it should be ignore, I will close this discussion.
  5. On the bright side, those of us who are older may remember when the Mexicans had something similar happen back in 1979. That spill lasted for 10 months and gushed out 10 times what has been released so far on this one.
  6. Yeah, his lawyer says we should have learned by now to not jump to conclusions about his guilt since he 'was falsely accused' once before, and we all know how that turned out. Interesting that this woman's death was on the five-year anniversary date of Natalie Holloway's disappearance........
  7. I don't get it. On another note, your signature is a broken link.......
  8. The enviros have got to be loving this. Find an excuse to shut off the flow of oil, and make it too expensive and restrictive to find more.
  9. Welcome, I hope you find what you're looking for.
  10. I don't go to the gym on Sunday. I try to do an extra hard workout on Saturday and let my body rest and regenerate muscle on Sunday. It's good for your body to rebuild itself after being stressed and torn down during workouts during the week.
  11. No weapons finds announced, but according the the Jerusalem Post, supplies that would have limited peaceful humanitarian use. Also, suspected terrorists and lots of money. Article here: IDF: Global Jihad on flotilla An excerpt:
  12. Well, considering that many lawyers are sharks, that would create quite a conundrum. Would they begin to feed on themselves in this case?
  13. I run on the 'don't ask, don't tell' philosophy.
  14. Now that this is resolved, I'll close this thread........
  15. Pasta and potato starchy, or stiff starchy?
  16. You can't make her be happy. You can only control yourself, and for some of us that takes more work than we thought we need to do. If she wants space, then give her space.
  17. Welcome to the forums. I would suggest that in the future you do not post your personal information publicly on this board, as there are many predators surfing the internet.
  18. Moksha, Do you need my address so you can send me all your excess? After I take what I need of it then I'll pass the remainder on to the next member here who posts. Just PM me if you are serious about helping me, your fellow man.
  19. I would agree with that sentiment. If only good things are 'meant to be', then bad things or so-so things would, by exclusion, not be 'meant to be'.
  20. So, you're saying that sharks only eat white American men? This smacks of xenophobia too. I wasn't aware that sharks discriminated like that. Do they ask for your passport to make sure they are not accidentally going after Canadians?
  21. So, you've got nothing then? The question was asked for specific things he has been wrong about.
  22. Are you saying the LDS Church is lesbian?
  23. I know a man who recently got into an auto accident. Do you think it was meant to be since it happened so quickly?
