  1. The admin team welcomes you to the club.
  2. This is a good forum for any "Mormons seem weird" topics you may have as well. It's possible that your spiritual experiences may lead you to conclude that the CoJCoLDS is Christ's church, and where you should be. If that's the result, there can be a little culture shock, because our church is more than a church, it's a lifestyle. And there are some interesting cultural oddities that come with the lifestyle. Some we can explain doctrinally, others we tend to be embarrassed by.
  3. Heh - well, you can't please everyone I guess. At the risk of going full-blown passive-aggressive, would you say your post here is an example of a sad ego driven persona, or a counter balance to an unhappy/unfulfilled life? From where I'm standing, it's not the heaviness of the subject that's an issue. The only thing that gets threads locked is an abundance of folks abusing the site rules, usually #1-3.

  4. Amazing. Whenever I need to feel a little hope for the human race, I go look at what SpaceX's latest milestone.
  5. Yep - I learned about the UK Postal service issue from you @Jamie123!
  6. Fun story: We moderators have a private forum for talking about moderator stuff like account warnings and bans and stuff. We also have a forum open to everyone to talk to moderators about moderator stuff. One time I got those mixed up, and talked in the open forum about a problematic poster, and then the problematic poster saw my post and life was awkward for a bit. Moral of the story: When you skip all the forums except for General Discussion, ya miss the juicy stuff!
  7. I've noticed a slow and steady decline across my favorite 3 LDS-themed message boards (and half-dozen Facebook groups) starting before COVID. One of them is now pretty much totally dead. Thirdhour has certainly slowed a bit, but is still kicking. The trick is to look for all new messages here: https://thirdhour.org/forums/discover/
  8. Thread closed. As a reminder, here are some of the site rules:
  9. It's an interesting dilemma, but one I had to abandon decades ago. It used to bug me that this or that gas station got their oil from this or that nation that occasionally spoke about their duty to kill Americans, or clothing produced in nations that make use of child or slave labor. The mortal, secular rules that govern the earth at this time just make it impossible to participate in civilization without doing occasional business with your enemies. Our church has historical tidbits about making food (and beer) from our own farms only, but I haven't heard anything like that in like a century.
  10. Everyone knows the Jack Chick Tract images of Joseph are the most accurate.
  11. Meanwhile, in San Francisco... Voters empower cops, reform welfare: Is San Francisco still a liberal bastion? - The San Francisco Standard news
  12. I started paying attention to gold and silver prices in 2010, to see if I could find a way to spot trends and make billions. I'm not a billionaire yet (I'm barely a thousandaire), but here's my chart I made and look at. It tracks the price of 1 oz of gold in coin form, and the price of 100 silver eagles: Fun fact: The Gold Standard got adopted basically because of an accident caused by Issac Newton: Gold standard - Wikipedia
