I doubt the GOP will want PR to have Senators voting in Congress.

People of course practice that with which they are comfortable. Your way, imo, is no more common sensical than is mine. I do not extend the grant of being alone with any women other than my wife or my female relatives. What others think is really immaterial to me. I am not trying to be rude...

This is tragic. The family is heartbroken.

Hey, bear, glad you are here.

The OP is talking about a form of the Franklin Covenant: never be alone in a closed situation with a woman not your wife or your female relatives. I practiced that for more than three decades. It's not difficult. It's only creepy when a female tries to get you to abandon it. Mutual respect.

To make a point: the 'old settlers' in Missouri ordered a printing press destroyed because people printed things about them ;)?

That is your opinion, yes. Now explain why some Jesus-professing Christian groups go along with an allegorical interpretation of Genesis.

Why? Be specific. Some Christian groups do not believe in Original Sin.

The Mormon generations from the 1850s certainly saw the US Government as the enemy of the LDS Church. Read Will Bagley, Blood of the Prophets, and Turley Leonard and Walker Massacre at Mountain Meadows, for both sides of the stories. They are great reads.

Trump loves him a Bible tax.
