I don’t understand people’s obsession with traveling. I’ve been to several different countries and tbh it’s just boring and feels like just some giant cope people do when they just have 0 purpose. Like congrats you paid thousands of dollars to be around dirty nasty foreigners who hate you just to see the same exact sights you could see in America all because you hate yourself and your life

@OchoZaco Would you be willing to come on my show and discuss this?

@deseretnoise I agree with everything you said until the last two words. Actually, most members are not a part of a traditional family structure and most aren’t children.
English
I agree. I haven't been to Stake Conference since having more than 1 child (we're talking like, 7 years). A two hour in-person Sacrament-style meeting is wildly impractical for families – the Church's primary demographic.

Stake conference should be broadcast so we can watch at home.

I've read the book of Mormon many times, we're tired because things don't add up.
For example:
Why are there tens of thousands of ancient Bible manuscripts and none for the Book of Mormon?
Why do we know where Jerusalem is, but not Zarahemla?
Why do "ancient Jews" preach sermons like the burned over district in 19th century New York?
Why is faith the only answer when the book claims to be historical?
What happened to all of the ruins, swords, helmets and the entire civilizations of the Book of Mormon?
It's not sign seeking, it's honest inquiry.

People asking for proof usually aren’t stupid. A lot of them are tired. Some have been burned. Some just don’t want to get fooled. I get that. The Book of Mormon’s pushback is simple though. God isn’t a lab experiment you control. If the posture is prove it right now, in my timeframe, in my preferred format, you’re basically putting yourself in the judge’s seat and asking Him to audition. Faith is the opposite posture. It’s not pretending. It’s not turning your brain off. It’s choosing to move toward Christ with what you already have, even if it’s small. That’s why Alma 32 is such a big deal. He’s not saying manufacture belief. He’s saying try an honest experiment. Make room for the word. Live it long enough to see what it does to you. Watch if it changes your desires, your patience, your temper, your relationships, your sense of peace. That’s not a demand for fireworks. That’s willingness. And Ether 12:6 nails the order. Faith comes first, then the witness. Not because God is stingy, but because trust is part of the actual relationship. If I only “believe” after I get everything handed to me, I’m not really following Him, I’m evaluating Him. So when I say come closer, I mean do the basic things that put you in a place where God can actually speak. Read the Book of Mormon with real intent, not as a gotcha exercise. Pray like you actually want an answer, not like you’re daring Him. Then pay attention to what happens inside you and in your life. That’s the “walk with Him” piece. You learn the voice of the Spirit the same way you learn anyone’s voice, by spending time with them. Consistency. Honesty. Real effort. And if someone wants a sign first, the Book of Mormon’s warning is pretty blunt. Signs don’t fix a heart that’s already decided. Helaman 16 shows people watching miracles and still finding a way to dismiss them. If a person is committed to not believing, no amount of proof is enough. So faith matters because it’s the doorway. Not the finish line. It’s the willingness to step toward Christ before you can see the whole road.

@ThoughtfulSaint In 2013 a random kid my ward boundaries searched out the missionaries and was baptized in a month due to Brandon’s testimony. He was so impressed with the lead singer of his favorite band that with no involvement of his parents or even the ward could stop him from joining.

Here’s the schedule I came up with for our son based on research I did on vaccines like 2.5 years ago. I looked at ingredients and post-market outcomes and learned what actually makes vaccines work and why some might not be that great.
Basic conclusion was that stacking vaccines too close might cause damage or disruption of immune systems and that stacking many aluminum containing vaccines together might cause neurological damage that present as symptoms similar to mild autism or other similar conditions.
It adjusts the time table for when to get certain ones as well as omissions of others to spread them out and lessen the stress on immune systems and lower the aluminum load.
One note: No Hep B. It’s not on the sheet because this is the note I gave our pediatrician and we had already declined the Hep B at the hospital.

Soon to be parent question, which vaccines do I say no to?

@JohnnyTani3 @stackerco The finished product reflects King James English. We don’t know what the language of the original was.
But my point is we don’t have anything close to original manuscripts to the Bible either. We have copies of copies centuries old. That’s not much different.

@gorwoodcb @stackerco “Be it known unto all nations, kindreds, tongues, and people, unto whom this work shall come: That Joseph Smith has shown unto us the plates of which hath been spoken, which have the appearance of gold; all of which has the appearance of ancient work, and of curious workmanship.”

@stackerco If there were plates and people saw them, how do we know if what they saw weren’t kinderhook type (fake) plates? 💁♂️

@Adasu_d_gr8 I lived this. My wife still is the hottest thing to me. Too bad the honeymoon was painful and tearful. But I am patient. 7 years later, I am still waiting for the day she shows a positive emotion towards intimacy. I’ve read books and open and willing to try anything for her.

Imagine what it is like when two sexually pure people get married.
He has guarded his heart & bounced his eyes, and she is the only naked woman he has ever seen.
Can you imagine how hot she would be to him?
And she has never been held so intimately that she knows the smell of any man's skin but his alone.
She has no one to compare his gentle touch & caress to. Omo
Can you imagine how hot he would be to her?
Guilt-free sex. That's what God wants sex to be.
No experience but learning together. No comparison. No disappointment. No guilt or shame. Only good, clean fun between husband and wife.

@ThoughtfulSaint @stackerco Jesus needs to have resurrected, can't just be a cool story. I understand that parables and stories are used to teach truth, but it feels important to present them as such. People in Joseph Smith's day live in history for us. When does scripture go from nice stories to history?
English
@stackerco What if the point of these stories is not history.

I tried really hard to go to church last Sunday and just be part of it in a positive way.
I sit there and listened to the gospel doctrine lesson covering the creation.
Book of Moses comes up. The teacher is talking about Moses’ interaction with Satan.
I prepped myself, “I know it’s not real because Satan is anachronistic of the time period,” I say to myself. “But that’s not the point. Let’s hear the moral of the story…”
Teacher then quotes the scripture that Moses casts out Satan by the “Name of the Only Begotten.”
“Another anachronism!” My brain yells at me. “It’s layers of anachronisms!” And I don’t remember anything else. My mind just goes completely into B.S. mode.
☑️ Satan is anachronistic in the first place.
☑️ Referencing Jesus is anachronistic
☑️ Casting out evil spirits at all is anachronistic
☑️ Using a title for Jesus like “Only Begotten” is even anachronistic if it was set in the New Testament.
Then the teacher says, “Moses’s story sounds a lot like Joseph’s first vision story.”
And then my brain screams again, “of course it does because Joseph is writing the same story! And it sounds like Jesus’ temptation story because Joseph read it too.”
But I just sat quiet while my brain was loud. Then I left when it was over without making a comment.
I got home. Told my wife, “I don’t think I can keep going to church.”
