I must say snow, my respect for you has gone up a notch, not that it was low to begin with, just higher now =) Putting myself in a similar situation (even though my daughter is only 6 weeks old) I dont know if i would react the same, but I surely hope i would. Spencer

Interesting post, thanks for shareing =) Spencer

VICTIM!!?? No way, since there are no such things as victims. Just ask The Opinion of The Snow, our resident free agency expert. One ALWAYS has a choice. No one to blame but oneself. Look inward, not outward. We ALL have the power--the power to choose the white hats over the black hats; the light and the delightsome over the dark and the kinky. You sure know a lot about folks for only being here for a month... What ya got on bat? Spencer

True, but the lifestyles of our parents instill right and wrong in us and make us a lot of who we are, which may cause a problem for some. Spencer

You may be right Behunin, but did you grow up in the church? Try taking all this in as a convert, coming from a very alternative lifestyle. I agree with you, just take a look through another window for a minute. Not saying they're right, but I can understand. Am I making sense? feel like im rambling. Im a convert, but to me this gospel makes sense. A whole lot of sense, and others, to me, try to make it more complicated than it really is. Spencer

Well that to, but as well, some people know matter what is proven to them, or what they have seen, will still continue to live there lives for themselves, because living a life for Christ is very demanding and at times very tough. Not to mention how those with alternative lifestyles look upon and treat those who choose to follow Christ. Some choose to take the "easy" way. And its very tempting at times. I pray none of us fall into that temptation. Spencer

We all get frustrated from time to time, i appreciate you exaplaining yourself, usually what i try to do when i get frustrated with something, is write it down then try to forget about it. then ill look at it later hopefully with a fresh and calm mind. Sometimes after looking at the situation the second time i am completely blown away by how and why i originally reacted. And other times... I Blow up! =b ka-pow. Hey work in progress tho right? Spencer

Even if Spencer was gone, the other moderators were here doing their jobs. Maybe that is why we got on so well together. :) Agreed. Its a team effort. I try not to do anything without hearing input and thoughts of the co-moderators. Spencer

You never cease to show me how idiocy doesn't have limits.What basis do you have for stating this? Angels are spiritual beings without any physical bodies. Only two have been distinct, in the bible. And since the only thing we know about them are their names. You have no basis for saying they are male and female because there is nothing in the bible, that I have seen, to indicate such. We are constantly given symbolic gestures to help us relate to heavenly beings, you just fail to distinguish that. You are full of answers, it's just too bad none of them are right. Biblical discussion doesn't seem to be the right thing for you. Let try to get our points accrossed without name calling please.Spencer

Good article, thanks Kevin. Spencer

How do you guys match up as far as how you want to raise your children? what will be allowed and what will not? Get to know her principles and feel her out for things, and slowly let her know what you believe and maybe some of our basic gospel principles. Pray often and read your scriptures.. Wish you the best. Spencer

If youre not going to listen, im not going to respond. Spencer

Again, we return to Free agency. (written in crayon)

Hey AS, Try using you heart for once? the answer to your question, because it was not OF God. Spencer

well the next time your curiosity grabs hold of in such a way, please feel free to use our PM function, as this question has nothing at all to do with the topic at hand. Consider yourself warned. Spencer

Chill, i did answer your question, no reason to have a hissy fit if you dont want to accept it.

What does that have to do with anything AS?

Because God is not the only one who can tempt. Free Agency + Satan's temptation = situations like this. You know the answer to this question, so come out with your point already. Spencer

Im sorry all, i have been really busy lately lets see what we can do.

AS, is it REALLY NECESSARY to mock us and our beliefs, you dont agre great, cant you move on and let us be? or at least avoid discussions that might bring out the worst in you, such as this. Spencer

LT, See the book Club forum =) Maybe i should move it up a bit. Spencer

If you guys agree, lets try and read the first 2 chapters of Nephi over the weekend and discuss Monday. We'll start off slow and get a feel for a pace to set. Let me know any opinions or suggestions you may have. Spencer

Ok, so the Book of Mormon it is, how much are you all willing to commit to reading a night? or we can stretch it out over a weeks period. a chapter a night? would that work? I could setup a new forum for these post's to keep them from getting lost. Let me know what you all think. Spencer

I was thinking the beginning, but we could do that if thou shalt will it =b Spencer

Other (Reply with suggestions Scripture related) option will be null if no suggestions are made. Spencer
