  1. Has LDSaudio.com closed shop? I had a load of media from them on my external HDD which just died so went to re-download but cannot find the site any more. Has it gone or changed it's name? Help would be greatly appreciated :)
  2. Handguns were banned after some nutter went on a rampage and shot a load of primary kids and their teachers a good few years back, you can still get a shotgun license but it's very hard to do so. Fox hunting with dogs has been banned since around 2004 but you can still go and shoot them with your shotgun if your a farmer I believe!
  3. I think its just one of those cultural divides. Not being from the USA and not seeing guns here in the UK very much other than in films and occasionally you see an armed police officer its just strange to read about people carrying firearms. I remember the first time I went to Northern Ireland where the police are armed and just staring at the first policeman I saw because he had a gun. I guess its just a common sight over in the US to see armed police and being able to carry weapons yourself.
  4. Yes, but that praise was for his expression of faith not for the fact that he was a centurion. Your other point I totally agree with.
  5. I just don't see how the carrying of a gun or the intended use of one fits in with the teachings of Jesus Christ? For example Matt 5 38-41: Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: 39But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. 40And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also. 41And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain. 42Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away. So if Jesus is saying we should not resist evil surely shooting them is doing just that? There's no footnote saying unless of course you have your gloch in your pocket, then whip it out and put a cap in his arse. Just my thoughts.
  6. Is it me or all Americans obsessed with guns and shooting things?
  7. Melchizedek or Malki Tzedek (from Hebrew מַלְכִּי־צֶדֶק malḵ-i ṣédeq) translated as "my king (is) righteous(ness)") is a priest mentioned during the Abram narrative in the 14th chapter of the Book of Genesis. Source
  8. Yet again Israel goes out into international waters and attacks foreign aid ships. Isn't it about time they were bombed by NATO for the frequent violations and attacks on its citizens in the same way there doing in Libya? Israel doesn't want peace they just want to grab as much land as possible before there forced to the table to finally give back the land they have no actual claim to.
  9. It's better than the 2nd one but the girl they got instead of Megan Fox was rubbish.
  10. Awful, had to turn it off it was so bad!
  11. I've never heard of it and have just found an online copy to have a read through, will have a read before commenting!
  12. Revelation 11 1And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein. 2But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months. 3And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. 4These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. 5And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. 6These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. 7And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. 8And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. 9And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. 10And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. 11And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. 12And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. 13And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. 14The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly. Did a quick google for it and this is the passage from Revelations which mentions the fire breathing. Does anyone have a link to someone in authority stating that these will be LDS apostles?
  13. You should be ok if your over 13 to see PG13 movies.
  14. Here's another list of creeds then!
  15. Apostles' Creed Nicene Creed Chalcedonian Definition The Athanasian Creed There you go, some to get you started with!
  16. Has he given a reason for why he doesn't want to go on his mission? Does he feel like he has to go on a mission because its expected for him to do so or did he choose to go by himself?
  17. Not really, it is a very moving movie which brings home the terrible cruelty that crucifiction is and shows what the saviour endured so we might gain salvation. Its a movie about faith and the hope that comes from that faith. Though it's not suitable for children, that does not mean its a pornography of violence and it certainly isn't crap.
  18. I've never heard of this coupon thing before, is it a US thing or do other countries do it aswell? Where do you get all these coupons from, do you have to go somewhere to collect them or do you get them from magazines or newspapers?
  19. You coould have still been asleep and dreamed the voice maybe?
  20. Like I've said, I've not had any experience of hooters or any place like it in the UK, I was a little shocked when I did a google search and looked for hooters. From the pics I viewed it certainly looked like they play to the sexual side of things with regards to their waitresses. So I doubt it would be a place I would take my family to for a meal.
  21. I would also recommend that book, I'm reading through it at the moment and its quite a refreshing read!
  22. I like what the Traveller has said about the 'As man is, God once was. As God is, Man may become.' In fact I liked it so much it's my signature!
  23. No but my sisters boyfriends cousin's best friend knew a guy who's sister ate at 31 flavours but also worked at google once! Love Ferris Bueller!
  24. No, but i did wonder why she had no nipples though.
  25. Just watched this movie and it was good, if a little different! It's about a family who move out to the countryside after their father is murdered and then the country looses all power due to some kind of terrorist attack. It's a bit far fetched in places but has an all LDS cast and crew!
