    My Wiccan Co-Worker

    Can I have some Mountain Dew? Where's the Cheetos?

    LDS Mormon Baptism

    If that's what you believe you'll be in for a rude awakening later on.

    LDS Aaronic Priesthood

    Jacket and tie being requirements for passing the sacrament is an old tradition that I'm guessing stems from the old super-conservative era of the mid 1900's. Thankfully it's falling out of favor, and Bishops have been instructed for the past several years that there should not be any dress...

    LDS Satan lied from the beginning

    The Reedy Creek Improvement District in Florida is an entirely independent private community covering 38.6 square miles. Very few people seem to complain about it. (This is the land owned by the Walt Disney Company and hosts Walt Disney World.)

    LDS Popular LDS hymns as a window on Mormon theology

    Just a point of clarification on how the Sacrament/Lord's Supper is prepared: Typically the Teachers will prepare the altar (setting down the cloths, filling the cups and getting bread in the trays) before Sacrament Meeting. At the allotted time (immediately following ward and/or stake...

    LDS Mormon Baptism

    On its own no. Baptisms are entirely symbolic, just like every other ordinance in existence.

    My Wiccan Co-Worker

    Why? That's nowhere near the beginning of the story.

    LDS What do LDS believe today and how do you all ignore what was written before by BY?

    A being that has no need for a starship. I'll let you know after I'm dead. The three roles of Tank, Healer, and DPS, without one the other two will never clear the dungeon. Salvation: noun 1. the act of saving or protecting from harm, risk,loss, destruction, etc. 2. the state of being saved or...

    LDS Really interesting discussion between Christian and Mormon on Salvation

    There are two very large words that are impossible to miss. Anyone who would just be passing by would only see those two words. One would think that a Christian minister would want to have something else be the "at a glance" message he portrays. And that's before we get to the small text that...

    LDS Mormons should stop or at least reconsider use of the term "Anti-Mormon"

    So to go on a parallel track, when I encounter an anti-Semite I have no right to challenge their behavior because they're not anti-Jewish people but anti-Judaism?

    LDS LDS: Celestial Marriage versus Jesus' Teaching

    Lets not forget to put this in context with verse 1: 7 Or are ye ignorant, brethren (for I speak to men who know the law), that the law hath dominion over a man for so long time as he liveth? 2 For the woman that hath a husband is bound by law to the husband while he liveth; but if the husband...

    LDS LDS: Celestial Marriage versus Jesus' Teaching

    To me, if you stick with just the Bible, the question is this: are "marry" and "given in marriage" verbs, or adjectives. On my own, I read them as verbs, something that is done.

    Haven't the foggiest. Why not ask them?

    Well, it's been a week or two since the "Debate Non-Christian Religions" section opened up and I must say the initial results are interesting. 15 threads, 10 focused on us LDS, 6 of those started by the same person. And the more I browse through them, the less inclined I am to respond.

    Meet me in Bozeman, Montana on April 5th, 2063 and we'll find out for sure.

    Neither person is LDS, and therefore total accuracy can not be guaranteed from either side. It's like a debate over proper piano technique between a pair of flutists.

    I'm already seeing one issue with this new setup already. There's a "Formal Discussion" on the new section about us LDS already, discussing if we're a cult. Neither participant is LDS.
