This. Yet there will still be 24 pages arguing about it.

And we're off!

I pay taxes on the whole road, occifer.

Exactly. That's what I meant. If someone's tithe hadn't put that Book of Mormon in my hand, I may not be here today.

I honestly have no idea what you're trying to say here, but if by "by one person's moral opinion" you mean God, then yes. I'm not sure why that surprises you.

We all have our faults.

I have a deeper love for @mirkwood, in a non-same sex attraction kinda way.

Is anyone else looking forward to the ABBA Hologram tour?

I played the bagpipes. 🙄

I'll never understand women. I come home every day expecting to get served papers.

I dated a doctor who was studying electro-shock for behavior treatment. Pretty interesting.

We'd corrupt him. I like your wife's hair.

It's a Mormon forum. I'm unsure why so many people choose to come here to argue Mormon beliefs. I wish there were a heavily moderated forum available for uplifting discussions.

Or grow through Christ, as God intends us.

I'd argue that someone's tithe helped me when I was in need, only I didn't know it.

I'm not sure. It very well could be a combination of all that. There is also an association between elevation and suicide. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3114154/ I'm not an expert by any stretch. People choose an association that they desire to be correct because it fits their narrative, but do we really know? How many active members commit suicide compared to those that left? I don't see how to avoid it.

Nobody believes the Church is perfect. God is, though, and through Christ we return to Him. Period.

You can't blame the Church for the actions of the world, nor can you expect the Church to change to suit them. That's what I see the issue is. The Church hasn't changed, the world has. Odd that everyone likes to blame the Church. For generations, the Church has taught God's law and the path to salvation and happiness while the world has slowly slipped. Now, the world points it's finger at the church and says it's OUR fault that kids feel bad and kill themselves. No, I'm following Christ. The world is telling the kids it's OK to sin. No wonder they're confused and pained.

None of my business. However, if asked, my default response would be "wear your garments". If not asked, see sentence one.

Exactly what you posted.

Then your sister in law has a warped understanding of "happy".

Thanks for sharing this. I'm in!

Have you fasted and prayed? What does the Spirit tell you?

How sweet

Let it go. Don't let the faults of imperfect people affect your progression.
