Brian, be better than this.

Do you have the source for this?

Forgive me, but I think that most people in this country are oblivious and ignorant to political labels. I am more inclined to think that, like Russia, most Americans are distracted by fascist rhetoric while the oligarchic class moves into the Whitehouse. I recommend “Red Notice” by Bill Browder.

What you may be looking for is the Community of Christ. How is it that the same core beliefs branch into two very different faith manifestations. The LDS church has become both too big to change and it thinks it’s too big to fail.

No, it will simply move from historicity to either some spiritual exercise that God gave Joseph to help understand the Plan of Salvation etc. I don’t think it will lose its status as scripture. Perhaps it becomes much more like Old Testament scriptures.

Check your dm.

I have not. I am applying for the B.H. Robert’s grant through the Mormon History Association. Out of. curiosity, are you a member?

Well mine is quite hypothetical. The LDS Church still advocates for a literal Book of Mormon. I think that they are running out of space and so eventually they will transition the book to inspirational folklore as their break off church, The Community of Christ.

The church has steered clear of Mother in Heaven as a topic because doctrinally it causes problems. If a women starts praying to her mother will she finally get offended when she finds out she doesn't know her MIH's name, not because she is too sacred but because there maybe thousands or more.

The most insidious thought that the leadership has allowed to permeate mormon culture is that “The church is perfect, its people aren’t.”. I believe that the people are as perfect as an imperfect church will allow them to be.

The church never fails to live up to my minimal expectations. Obviously her subject matter about Mother in Heaven really pissed them off. After all, much of Quinn’s research is now part of those hard to get essays. Please find out who said no while she was still alive.

I always thought the real angry bird was a Shrike!

Most of us just get bitchy for six months.

How is the book?

The fact is that almost all of these guys, including Trump, really have some sexual animosity towards women. Do you think this is crossing the brain barrier to all the women who voted for him?

Five Finger Death Punch to the nation.

That same argument worked for Joseph Smith for a while too.

Don’t Blame Me, I Voted for Bartlett!
