Was all about SEX?? Why would ANY man want to MARRY so many women just to have sex? Especially when all that sex led to all those kids, more mouths to feed?

Do you honestly think that rich and powerful men, then and now, think anything BUT sex when they take a mistress? Do you think that, back in the 19th century, those men took responsibility for their "mistakes"?

That's probably why so many men took their female slaves, because any children that resulted would simply be sold into slavery.

Why can't people just think that plural marriage was done for altruistic reasons?

They're really mad, and deceived.
They think I'm being tempted by the devil and keep citing verses in my presence. I feel really bad. I feel like an intruder in the family. What should I do?

I hate it when people say things about how you have to accept Jesus Christ as your personal savior to go to heaven. I don't know if I believe in God, but I think anyone can get to heaven (if there is one) as long as they're a good person. Even an athiest could make it if they're a good person as far as I'm concerned. What do you think?

I am a 15 year old and I'm turning 16 in the month of July. It's getting closer to that time when I choose a career path. But none is coming to mind. I'm not asking you to choose for me. I ask that you tell me what my career will be when I grow up. Will I be happy with my career?

Or you believe the bible 100% proves his existence.

The bible says " No man knows the DAY nor the HOUR that the Son of Man cometh"

So why did people think the rapture would happen on 7 / 7/ 07, I knew this would happen, God will come when we least expect him to come,

If we knew the day Jesus was come (Ex. Sept 8, 2007) then most people would sin until the time is near then everyone would come to christ but it doesn't work like that. We need to stop putting dates on when we THINK he is coming and just live the life according to his will, in Jesus Christ.

I mean we've been around much more longer than 2007 years. I think its because of Jesus that we started over at 1, since his birth? 2000 years ago.

But that dosen't explain how the WHOLE world have that same calendar...how come someone like CHINA still have a calendar that says 2007 when they arn't much of a Jesus people.

Is it because of Jesus? or some other influence?
So is Jesus really that significant?

A lot of people accuse them of lying, but I don't think they've ever actually read the stories of people on there that have been hurt by the church.

I see so many Christians picking and choosing which parts of the bible are symbolic and which are literal. Why don’t they call modern bibles, “The Big Book of Choose Your Own Beliefs”?

Earlier today, a question was asked about the Word of Wisdom. Many people stated that the Word of Wisdom is merely a set of 'guidelines' for one to follow.

However, if this is the case, why does question #10 in the Temple Recommend interview ask "Do you keep the Word of Wisdom?"

Is there a double standard here?

When He said that every sin can be forgiven except the blasphemy of the spirit. I thought He shed His blood for all sins. Please don't answer if you don't care.

In the June issue of Scientific American, there was an article regarding new thoughts on the origin of life on earth that I found particularly interesting.

It explained that 30 years ago or so, many scientists believed that DNA was the building block of life...and it was somehow the beginning chemical structure that initiated all life on earth. (Hawkins also believed in this theory as I understand it)

Then, a few years ago, RNA was discovered and because it was an even simpler form, it was theorized that it, not DNA was the building block etc. (I am not a scientist so I may not be explaining this very well)

According to the article, something new was found however...a rather perplexing puzzle about DNA and RNA molecules. It seems that the old question of which came first, the chicken or the egg is once again being asked.

In order for DNA to exist in the double helix form that we are accustomed to seeing, something had to cause a replicator molecule to be added.

"And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, And came out of the graves AFTER HIS [SUNDAY] RESURRECTION, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
(Matthew 27:52, 53).

(Everytime his name is mentioned, I have to confess my sinful thoughts that night during prayer.)

Now, I'm not going to judge Mormons because my church says that you can't get divorced.

It's dirty but Mormons had the right idea. Instead of getting a divorce just marry your mistress.

Too bad old Henry VIII wasn't a member of the Church of Jesus Christ and Latter Day Saints he could have a wife in every room at Windsor castle. LOL:)

But all joking aside Brigham Young didn't hide his sins in the closet. He flaunted his sinful lifestyle in public. Ironically he had a house built that he called, "Lions House" where he housed all of his 51 wives (just like the house on "Big Love", the HBO special about Mormon polygamy).

I want to tell him that they look alike, he's very nice but do you think that he would get mad or something?

Why do you thank god for all the good things but fail to blame him for all the bad. I mean if someone ran out into the road and got hit by a car and survived, everyone would be thanking God and thinking he was great, but if the person died no christian would blame him at all, thinking it was a tragic accident that no one could help.

How can you thank someone for all the good and then not blame him for the bad?

If he is controlling all the good stuff in this world, then he must be controlling the bad too?
