    Are Open Marriages Immoral?

    I agree, I think it is probably risky behavior for many people. Regarding the morality of the behavior, I can appreciate why people conclude that it is immoral. For me, it is enough to be concerned about people's wellfare (since I'm not informed by religion) and be resistant to the behavior...

    Does it Matter What Name You Call God?

    Very nice.

    The Human mind; What a dangerous place to live.

    I have diametrically opposing needs. One part of me wants to isolate constantly, the other part me wants to screw like rabbits. So far, being a busy little bunny wins the day. (I jest, I like to do the dishes for others as well).

    The Human mind; What a dangerous place to live.

    Yeah, that sorta sounds familiar. Several years ago my significant other and I would have really bad arguments. The fight would start based on a real disagreement or offense. Ten minutes into the fight (probably sooner) we would be fighting about how we were fighting; this could go on for a very...

    Because the bible tells you so?

    LogDog, thanks for asking the question. I find the discussion invigorating. "We do not have a Holy Ghost litmus test for whom we consider mormon. She said we "don't think of them as mormon's anymore." That is just plain false and I can't even figure out what group of people she is talking...

    Because the bible tells you so?

    My perspective on my previous post – Constructive: It is understandable why you believe what you believe. Relevant: I provided background information on your primary source for morality. Behavior: I don’t agree that I wandered in here to insult and lie about Mormons. Did you receive the Holy...

    The Mystic Gene

    Fun question, I don't know the answer. The old "nature" vs "nuture" problem comes to mind. I'm thinking we could train people to think they were mystics even if they lacked the genetic material. Here are some interesting books that come to mind. Amazon.com: Why God Won't Go Away: Brain...

    Because the bible tells you so?

    Except for the ones that don't, but then you don't think of them as mormons anymore, right? Logdog, Mormons believe they are gifted this special companion when they are 8 years old - think of this companion as a Friendly Ghost. Here's how it works, if you are a good little girl or boy, then...

    Joseph Smith - Prophet of God

    You make a really good point. Even loving our family can be difficult. Earlier I was commenting on how Mormons are commanded to love their enemies and be perfect (perfect housewives no less). How on earth do they live with these commandments when clearly they don't come close to living up to...

    Childhood Religion Vs. Now

    22 year old guy having sex with a 16 year old girl

    I would be very uncomfortable with my 16 y/o daughter having sex with a 22 y/o. But like Buttons said, more information is needed to judge this situation. I understand the anger; I was scared as a new parent. Hell, I still get scared being a parent.

    Love not Fear

    I recall hearing this way back when. The language can be tricky indeed. Set me straight, do you use the word 'fear' as in "Work out your own salvation with trembling and fear" differently (not pertaining to reverence)?

    Joseph Smith - Prophet of God

    Becky, Becky, Becky ... that is not what your Lord and Saviour taught. Matthew 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; But let’s not forget that you are a...

    Joseph Smith - Prophet of God

    Keep working on the conspiracy theory, you're almost there. :eek: Actually, in all seriousness, I am confident that there are several things that you and I could agree on.

    Joseph Smith - Prophet of God

    I dunno, something about "love your enemies" springs to mind (Matthew 5:44). What kind of Christian are you? You're like Christian-lite, huh.
