Imagine politicians of our day saying such things. Then imagine LDS HQ, like Catholic Church HQ, was made sovereign - truly giving us all a separation of church and state. Here's to hoping.

Yes. That's the beauty of the gospel. Your father, like all of us, when he dies will go to the Spirit World where missionaries and members work and teach and preach like (mortal) missionaries do. The Final Judgement won't occur until after the 1,000 year Millennium, during which time, your father and the rest of us will be given another chance to repent, improve, accept more gospel truth, etc. Many, many, many more chances...one might say an almost-infinite amount infinite amount of chances since the Atonement is infinite, (noting the Final Judgement)

True, and by following His example. Does this include Prophets' and Apostles' writings in the Journal of Discourses, specifically those which speculate on His martial status? I like to think it does - though I know these discourses are NOT considered cannon or anything even resembling cannon - because those texts with current Prophets and Apostles' guidance add more and compliment each other.

Khan's son died due to a war Clinton repeatedly voted for, when she wasn't voting to limit the funds required to send the military the weapons and defenses they needed. Trump never supported the Iraq War. Everyone who died in Benghazi was a direct result of Hillary Clinton. Trump had nothing to do with this.

That is what the "legalize polyamory" movement's goal is, or at least, that's one of their goals. Time is irrelevant in the eternities, which mortality is arguably part of. Progress is relevant. I can't speak for others but I am a breeding cow. When that ceases to work, biotech will assist me.

God and guns.

As for getting right with God, seems like a personal matter; faith, repentance, baptism, and Holy Ghost and Temple Ordinances are required. After that - as we continue faithfully, God expects us to be as wise as serpents and harmless as doves, including surviving the overflowing scourges of the last days. Just seems to me, form an objective point of view, one must live in relatively isolated, high altitude locations - basically avoiding large cities, the coasts, and earthquake/fault zones. As for the poor that are always with us, as JonnieZ says, I'm not sure what the right approach here is, other than generous fast offerings. When the plagues come, the poor and unprepared will break down our doors to obtain our resources; not sure God wants us to welcome them with open arms or anticipate what will happen and plan accordingly, without needing to be commanded in all things.

President Monson has said in General Conference: April 2008 As bearers of the priesthood, we have been placed on earth in troubled times. We live in a complex world with currents of conflict everywhere to be found. Political machinations ruin the stability of nations, despots grasp for power, and segments of society seem forever downtrodden, deprived of opportunity, and left with a feeling of failure. October 2014 As bearers of the priesthood, we have been placed on earth in troubled times. We live in a complex world with currents of conflict everywhere to be found. Political schemes ruin the stability of nations, despots grasp for power, and segments of society seem forever downtrodden, deprived of opportunity and left with a feeling of failure. The sophistries of men ring in our ears, and sin surrounds us. -- Any thoughts on this? Makes me think it's time to prepare, like a lot; like buying antibiotics, weapons, fuel, year supply of food, etc. Makes me wonder also if the Restored Gospel is compatible with any political party, and I think the answer is no because God's goals aren't subject to being re-elected.

be careful, Big C. Only some scientific principles are welcome here.

be careful, Big C. Only some p No, thanks.

be careful? No, thanks.

Seems like many if not all couples, of all religions actually, could use some time when their spouses pester other people, be they additional spouses or others in church ball...

Big E and Big MG and I guess Big Z, Still new here but not quite sure how we're supposed to magically know the gender of all other users, even the androgynous ones, as well as the past spiritual history of other users (Big E, this refers to my attempted conversation with Godless.)
