  1. Welcome dragon fighter!
  2. Sometimes I wonder how come there are beautiful really good LDS girls over 23 that are not married yet??
  3. If we only work in those callings we are interested in... how do we develope in those we are not aht good in. On an other hand calling people who may not be goos in that position is risky as members start critizising and we all know where that takes them. So maybe a person who is not doing a perfect job ib his calling is there to learn and/or he is put there to teach us to trust God and not complain. One thing that has been difficult in our ward was to find people working in the childrensroom... I think that is so sad that many think that as a "lowest of callings" ... to be with those celestial ones! IF you take that calling seriosly you cant believe how much you can grow with it! Yes I said GROW! Tok me 10 years in childrensroom and an other 10+ in primary to start searching "adult information" and find apologetics and start defending the church
  4. Congrats! 9 .. cool... soon a basketball team! We had only one name to our oldest son; X... then we wanted an other too but had no idea. A few weeks before he would be blessed we were reading aloud the namelist, we red it twice and each time he acted very eager, when we come to Michael... so he become X Michael.... Our second wa XX... but had no idea of the second name ... but as he was carried from the first wash by his dad in teh Hospital, to me he was making sounds... YES ... like a month old ... so we thought a name of someone who was a good speaker... John the babtist... in Norwegean... Johannes... so be it! Girl: Ana-Maia, Rose-Marie. Amy-Mia Boy: Ken Samuel, Pter-Potter, Pekka Pirat

  10. Welcome... just post when you have time... we are here. I been too busy lately too... cant really have a discusition, just throwing my opinions around... sigh. Run, run, run.... translateing the FAIR wiki now... :) Dazled hit the nerve there... when all kids are out you really get busy! I stil have one at home... but I am getting there! BTW I been in the Church since 81... LOVE IT!
  11. Welome Lou! You may be needed in some of the psots here...
  12. So who is right in the end? Maybe it is the planet X approaching? Anyway many scientsista have talked about the earths axis shift in the near future... maybe it happens by earthquakes little by litle? Days also should be shortened at the end....
  13. Welcome! You guys are so lucky with the homeschool... we have no chanse for that in my country... Anyway I am a pedagogist and I am facinated about montessoripedagogy. If you never heard of it try to find a few books on it written by Maria Montessori... ant recall the name now .. something like the secret of childhood. Anyway she has fantastic teaching materials! Writting, reading, math, geography, nature... even language, teh grammar.... It is like a game to learn. I recomend! (she sarted out with special kids, kids that everyone tought would not learn.. and they passed the exams and learned to read aso...) They have made a film serie of her too in italian. :)
  14. Well said sister. I been in Church for 30 years still I feel like a novise. But one thing I noticed most of the ausitions are plain wrong for one reason or an other. So If I cannot right away answer I find out. Sometimes it is difficult to find words... and sometimes it really does not matter what words you use, the opponent has his fingers in his ears. But there are spectators... and the better you keep your calm and better proof you give, the spectators dont have their fingers in their ears... and maybe some day.... Keep up the good work sisters and brothers : Open your mouths and they shall be filled! Dont doubt!
  15. I like your thinking Jessica. You know there has bene found very old scriptures where it tells about Elohim... YHW and there was a God and 17 other Gods who had a meeting... Kerry is telling about it in his newest video... 7 videoes is the whole serie ... but this is in the very beginning... He has other videoes too, which I think you might find highly interesting.
  16. Been there, done that Mute. For me it all started when a good friend of mine asked me to come over to help her in a forum called mormonism (should have been called antimormons). That was some 10 years a go. It was really terrible. The owner has not by today taken anyone there to moderate. So the use of words is not pretty, but we LDS have been able to make it a LOT better than what it used to be. Worst words now are stupid and blind... It is one of the biggest and most visited netforums in my country if not biggest and mormonism is only a small part of it. There are many forums one for each religion... If I write in an other religious part with my "name" just to talk about Bible or anything they attac me telling me, what I believe in and ofcourse I need to tell them the truth, and then they complain that I am in a wrong froum telling about LDS... well I have not been banned yet as I never start the LDS talk, they do, and I believe I am allowed to correct them So anyway I went there and they were throwing all these weird accusitions at us, so I felt I wanted to learn to anwer them, so since then I have taken an interest in the defance of the church. FAIR Topical Guide How ever I know there are people who dont care what you say they "know better" even though they are not mormons or have not even read the BoM. One just said that in BoM was some guy whose head was cut and who stod up and even talked... hedless... hmmm ... you ever red that part?? You Tube has some good materials too: YouTube - fairldsorg's Channel YouTube - TheBackyardProfessor's Channel It is ok to ignore and hold fast on your faith and not "know the answers" as the questions are all wrong anyway! I have not seen ONE anti question with solid ground! They come from misunderstandings or meanness even direct from devil. To say that Church is hiding something is not true, to say missionaries or some people lie is not true. Many dont know the answer, so they cant explain it or they say their opinion, that is not to lie. Misionaries are out there to FIND those who are touched by the spirit not those who need to know it all RIGHT NOW. To know it all... you need 5 eternityes for that! And most of all you cant runn before you learn to stand! I stil have a lot to learn, but I have learned a great deal in these years and I just LOVE to learn more. This Church is SO SOLID! All one needs it the patiene to read the book through to know what is in it. And meanwhile keep the Faith in God even though He is running behind a corner sometimes... hey .. you know he is waiting for you there! :)

  22. Hi Jenny... I am writting books too... none have yet made to the publisher through my critisism ....
  23. Welcome enjoy the site.
  24. Sword in scriptures is an interresting theme. Makes me wonder when the sword in BoM means a real sword and when G:ds word. Even a sword of iron... is not nessesarily a sword made of iron.... Just an interesting remark, especially, when critics critizise us for iron swords as they have not found big iron mines or even old iron weapons as many as they count thnere should be according to the BoM. I am just translating this, so I kind of get deeper in the understanding of it. I may add something to thsi as I go on with the translation. This is so facinating!
