    What Women Know....

    I'm slightly confused about the above comment. The quote doesn't compare nurturing to housekeeping and even mentions "Fathers as well as mothers," not just mothers. Nonetheless, I think nurturing and housekeeping are somewhat related. Simply put, you can't nurture a child by letting him/her live...

    Great response to Sister Beck's Talk

    I agree with many of the comments previously made. Yes, many LDS women are anything but selfish; yes, many women have children out of fear and out of selfishness; and yes, there are a lot of children who were born unwanted and need care. In regards to the first point, I was mainly referring...

    What good does judgment do?

    MoonWater, I think your question is focusing more on those around the person to be judged rather than the individual, but I don't think the point of final judgement is to reimburse the general public for the sins of the individual. The judgement is meant to judge the individual, to either reward...

    How does God know the future?

    I like that... God knows all the possibilties but not the outcome, yet he's never surprised by the outcome. I believe that when one knows all the answers and not just one, though may not know exactly which answer it could be, it would make him all-knowing. Hence, He knows "all the answers."...

    The true meaning of life

    Phil--that's funny. I like it...the meaning of life, in such short terms, is really just that--to make more of it. I also agree with Madhatter. Sorrow is everywhere, but the opportunity for happiness is there, too. I think the meaning of life is to live a happy one, to improve yourself and be...

    Mormom Hate, it Grinds my gears

    It's true, pro-LDS posts tend to bring forth certain reactions but perhaps it's because it's such an interesting subject ;) Regardless, I think any angry responses have a lot to do with the way a post is written. It's so easy to be blunt and tactless when trying to give a simple...

    Great response to Sister Beck's Talk

    Kadzbiz, by focusing my response on women and motherhood I wasn’t disregarding men and the importance of fatherhood. The idea isn’t to keep women in the home while men pursue careers and ignore their family. As far as men and careers go, I believe the goal is simply to do well enough...

    Great response to Sister Beck's Talk

    Of course there are many women who are not ready to bear children, and some of the reasons for it include financial instability, lack of support, mental or emotional instability, etc, and women who are not ready for such a step can't be expected to bear children or to be mothers. Aside from...

    Why Dont Christians Accept the Book of Mormon as Valid?

    Like ChristineES said, I think it really comes down to people having different faiths, different beliefs. Even if a person agreed with the Book of Mormon or Joseph Smith, believing in it is a different story. To those of non-LDS faith, it could just be seen as another book and Joseph Smith as...

    Good Afternoon, Everyone!

    Hello :) I'm familiar with the forum because someone close to me has been a RF member for several months. I chose not to join until now because I never felt like I had a religious opinion or an interest in discussing religious matters, but after months of learning about a particular church I...
