    scottyg got a reaction from Vort in Do you fast?   
    Sometimes I actually forget that it is fast Sunday, but usually I do fast, and yes, it is for a full 24 hours. I start on Saturday afternoon around 4:00, and then eat again for Sunday dinner. The hardest part for me is actually the few hours of Saturday. The Sunday portion is much easier for some reason.

    Indeed.  How many times have we heard people say "If God allows polygamy in the Celestial Kingdom, I'd rather go to the Terrestrial Kingdom!"
    Well, if you say so.

    You may not have chosen it but I know of someone who did. (Nothing lasting was coming from dating the opposite sex so they decided to date amongst their own.) I know of someone else that has seemed to always have a rebellious streak that has said they're gay but I won't be surprised if that doesn't last.

    The same "reputable" media outlets that are playing this movie off as propaganda are the same media outlets who praised the film cuties.
    Adoption of, and encouragement by the media, for pedophilia is right around the corner folks, and films like this are a threat to their filthy desires.

    For what it's worth, these assignments are hard ones for the Apostles to handle. Imagine being tasked with making decisions that affect other individuals and families throughout the eternities. It is a wonderful thing to exercise the sealing power to bind on earth and bind in heaven...and an awful one to be the one to loose on earth and loose in heaven.

    3. If the e-mails and whatnot allegedly recovered from that laptop are anything to go by, Hunter Biden is so entrenched in Ukraine - what with Burisma and all - that someone, somewhere, is not happy with how long it took Biden to act and is compelling him to be more aggressive.

    You have a bank or credit union that you do business with, right? 
    Most such facilities make it *mandatory* that every employee takes a week off at least twice a year. 
    While the employee is gone, auditors spend that week looking over those transactions the employee was a part of, as many as they can review while that person is gone. The goal is to determine if the person had their hand in the till or was otherwise irresponsible with the bank's assets. Because the employee is not present, they are not in a position to interfere with the audit. The employee just spends their week doing whatever, knowing that when they return they'll be given a debriefing. 
    So how does it affect Disney?
    Some time back Kathleen Kennedy announced that there would be an upcoming Star Wars TV series known as "The Acolyte" and that Leslie Hedland (sp?) would be the showrunner. Allegedly, Kennedy had taken it upon herself to order the project into existence, as the higher-ups at Disney, including the current Bob, were taken by surprise. Not only were the higher-ups demanding to know by what authority she had initiated the project, they were also demanding to know how she was financing it since part of that approval process would have been her getting the budget. 
    So for her to be forced out of her office for two weeks, with no access to her corporate e-mail, strongly suggests that she's being locked out of Disney while her records - including her corporate e-mails - are audited. This way, as with the scenario above, she is in no position to directly interfere. 
    The most recent rumor is that Kennedy may have been syphoning money off of actually approved projects to try and finance The Acolyte, which if true would be serious trouble for Disney as a company as it's the kind of "cooking the books" that gets the IRS and SEC breathing down a company's neck. Disney is already being investigated due to a whistleblower allegation that the theme parks have been shifting numbers around to make their books look better, so if it's determined that Kennedy was indeed cooking everything so she could get her way it's grounds for Disney to fire her on the spot.

    Hi. Former Catholic here. I know very little about BYU, but BYU is way more aligned with LDS church teaching then Notre Dame is with Catholic teaching. In fact, BYU is more aligned with Catholic values than any catholic university except the really small ones. 
     
    Notre Dame, and most major Catholic universities are CINO. Catholic in name only.

    When it was alleged that Disney was buying up bulk tickets to juice Captain Marvel, I noted that what everyone was describing seemed to be far more in keeping with the activities of ticket scalpers and saw nothing to tie it to anything Disney itself was doing. Rather, it was far more likely that the social media smear campaigns being unleashed against Battle Angel Alita were Disney's doing as they were very obviously manufactured and overseen by a third party. 
    That being said, two weeks ago Kamran Pashak was contacted by his source "Sparrow", who claimed that Kathleen Kennedy was put on two weeks' paid vacation, that her corporate e-mail account was locked, and that five executives that Lucasfilm employees are calling the "Horsemen" have set up shop at the company. This is pretty consistent with some sort of internal investigation, with Overlord DVD saying that his sources suspect Kathleen Kennedy stands accused of syphoning money from approved projects (like Indy and Mandalorian) to finance The Acolyte given the project's bizarre financial trail.

    I said the something about 8 or 9 years ago to a liberal friend.  The verbiage I used was specifically that society is trying to "sexualize children."  I don't remember if I directly used the word "pedophilia" in that discussion, but I at least implied it.
    He assured me that liberals are all about protecting children and parental rights.  It would never happen.  Neither he nor I realized that even back then, the camel's nose was already in the tent.
    Now California has passed a law allowing children to get gender reassignment surgery without parental permission.  And if parents try to stop it, they will have their children given to state custody.  This is not an outlier.  This is not some small radical group.  It is the law passed by the most populous state in the nation.
    I just have to wonder at what point does the camel need to get before they realize what is happening?
    After all the QAnon conflation, I wonder how many of the media already know what is happening and are complicit in it.  The QAnon links are completely without merit.  I don't say it necessarily because I think QAnon is evil.  I've never really been interested in what QAnon really is - so I don't know what to think about that.
    I say it because one of the fastest ways to discredit something good -- is through simple name-calling.  If for some logical reason, the shoe fits, name calling is appropriate.  But this really has no basis in fact.  And if enough liberals already think QAnon is evil (for whatever logic, evidence, or lack thereof) they will be happy to associate that with something done by a group of devoted Christians - regardless of the merits.  Associate it with QAnon and they don't need to look into the merits.  It is automatically evil.  So, we don't need to pay attention to it.
    I am asking a sincere question.  Why would the media blatantly lie about this name-calling for something that may raise awareness to just how bad the problem really is?  Whether entertainment or news entertainment, it is mostly about sex nowadays.  Is it too far a stretch to say that they are simply being complicit?  Or at the very least, they are Asimov's "priests" from the Foundation?

    In addition, folks at disney work with many who were and are a part of this problem. I don't think for one second that it was just business executives and politicians on epstein's "list". You can bet your bottom dollar that hollywood brass and celebrities were and are a part of this disgusting practice.
    I am fine being called a conspiracy theorist in this regard...I take it as a compliment nowadays, but especially in regards to this kind of thing. No stone should be left unturned when unmasking child predators, and anyone who tries to push back on protecting kids are the ones who should be investigated first.
