Since I'm allowed to say it I''ll say what I've previously said again.
 
Gays will be allowed to be married in the Temple someday. 👹

Evidently, there is no board rule against you saying things that are demonstrably false.
Thanks, -Wade Englund-

Hi folks, just a random reminder of site rule #6, which everyone agreed to in order to use this forum:

I take it you don’t believe in climate change, living wage and healthcare. Her ideas are to help the poor and middle class. This is something new because normally politicians work for the filthy rich.

I’ve been following politics for about ten years.

My daughter's baptism and confirmation were done on the same day. It was to accommodate family who were traveling a long distance. Only a knucklehead wouldn't accommodate for that reason. It's like the letter of the law vs the spirit of the law. You are justifiably upset.

It's amazing to me that Mormons are arguing against immigrants because they will change the culture. The odd part is that Mormon culture is so much different than American culture. In a couple generations immigrants would be more in tune with American culture than Mormons have been for the last couple hundred years.

Maybe I should change my pic. 

Not really. If there was no tsa people would be able to bring their lotion on board.

Welp, I’m quitting again. I hope I can make it longer than last time.

I’m going to be so happy when I quit. The problem is that cigs control you. They’re also gross and embarrassing.

I’d like to see a Mormon Republican run against Trump in the primary. The only one who stands a chance is Romney. It could get ugly. I think Trump would attack the church.
would you like to see that? Do you think Romney has a chance?

I don't answer questions that are purposely asked to deflect from my arguments.

Thanks for the recognition.

Another point of view...

I read the book years ago. It is not a good book to give a person who has sinned. The book should be given prior to sinning. That means right before or after baptism. I like it so much I wanted it canonized. I wished when I was reading it that I would have been given it before.

That's your hint not to come 5 minutes before they close. It's a jerk move.

I think you should get baptized when YOU are ready. Not when your family accepts it and not when the missionaries think you're ready. I don't buy that whole get baptized then everything will fall into place.
 
I think a lot of the dysfunction with converts stems from them not being ready to be baptized. If the policy would change to make sure missionaries emphasize people get baptised when ready it would create stronger converts. The church would tradeoff higher numbers for stronger and committed members. Most of the converts who join when not ready fall away or are spiritually weaker.
The truth is I wasn't pressures or anything like that. I just fibbes on the questions prior to baptism because I was put on the spot and had my girlfriend at the time right by me. I think it would be much wiser to ask the prebaptism questions asked in private by a local leader who has no relationship built with the person be interviewed. The missionaries have a relationship built with the investigator thereby making it more difficult to answer questions truthfully.
With that said, I support wiser and more spiritual people than me. The leaders of the church. I'm sure they have thought and prayed about this many times. It's also true that I'm only answering this based on my experience. It's probably different for other converts.

I say, this is a privilege.  Or luxury.  The luxury to re-invent the wheel for every generation and going through the same mistakes our great great grandfathers already figured out and left as a legacy for the next generations.
The not-so-privileged (like us poor Filipinos) end up starving or dead while "learning things for ourselves".  And that's the good outcome.  The bad outcome is dragging our families down with us.
Christian Living is not just a template for "spiritual life".  It is just as much a template for a prosperous/peaceful/healthy mortal existence.

If you don't brainwash/teach them somebody else will. They get brainwashed in society to act a certain way. They get brainwashed at school. They get brainwashed in church. They get brainwashed at home.
I don't know exactly what you mean by brainwashed. Could you give me examples?

It's set for Dec 22nd. I can't wait! This along with reading the BOM should give me the strength to quit smoking.
