Gotta step in here and say you guys mentioning 'fundamentalist mormons' are just talking utter cr*p. They aren't mormons. I'm not even going to bother proving you wrong but knee jerk statements like this are just silly. If you're going to rip a religion apart get your facts straight.

Bullies
by Nancy Drake inhi ya'll.. i'm looking for advice on how to handle a neighborhood child that is bullying my son and other children in my apartment complex.
he is very mean, takes my son's stuff, tries to trip him on his bike by putting a stick into his spokes, pulling his underwear up, cussing at him.
at first i tried to talk to him nicely, asked him to please not do mean things to other children.

I just taught my little girl to punch properly. I told her if someone picks on her to give them a swift welt and they would stay away from her. Violence sucks but being bullied can lay down scars for life and affect someone far more than a quick piece of retribution.
I also taught her that hitting first is not acceptable but neither is allowing herself to be hit / bullied. I spent some time teaching her how to kick the shins when fighting and how to catch someones foot if they kicked you and twist them onto their ar*e. Next day at school the class renegade was duely deposited on his kishter and since then hasn't come near my little tiger. What made me proud is that she approached it maturely , told him to stop in a loud voice and then dispensed justice when the twerp kept it up.
I was bullied at school but not for long. The length of the bullying was in direct proportion to my acquiesence with it. I think maybe we over analyse in this day and age. -

It's all about women; the Roman Catholic Church in the 21st C.
by Abaddon inwell, the new pope has a task to take on or to ignore.. every single one of the major doctinal issues facing the roman catholic church involves women.the celebacy of priestscontraceptionfemale priestsabortion.
it is ironic that john paul ii, who was a maryist, has left the church just as misogynistic as it was when he took up the papacy.. it seems devotion to a pseudo-historical representation of womanhood borrowed and developed from pre-christian religions is not enough to stop sexist attitudes; women are still too dirty to allow to have sex with priests, are not allowed control over their own bodies, and are unworthy of being spiritual guides and mentors.. all the bets are on a traditionalist being elected pope, so i doubt we will see any change.. http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?article_id=29948.

I have to agree with C. if the Roman Catholic church follwos the worlds opinions without some justification (ie new light :) then it is revealed as ruled by the world. If it sticks to its guns even when its totally unfashionable or difficult then it has some legitemacy to the claim of being led by God.

Advantages to being a JW
by MGonzales ini'd say that the biggest advantage of being a jw is that you learn the bible.
growing up a jw (never baptized), i had many friends (mostly catholic) who didn't even know where most books of the bible were even located.
jws really do learn and study the bible and this knowledge becomes very helpful once you start looking at the bible more objectively and not with wts binders.

Hi LH - the wearing of LDS clothing is really up to the individual who has been to the temple fort their endowment. In other words the covenant is between them and God but the instruction is to wear it at all times when practical.
Times when I don't think it is practical:
Sex , swimming , most sport, visiting Doctor, visiting a naturist beach (OK kidding!)
The timeline for LDS ppl and the temple is as follows:
1/ Age 14+ they can go and do baptisms and confirmations(Gift of Holy Ghost) for the Dead - no special covenants made.
2/ For guys just prior to a mission (19) or one year after joining the church if they are older they can go get their endowment , for women it can be a little later. For both sexes marriage provides a special case (ie If I got married at 16 I'd go to the temple for my endowment early.) -

Crap that hurts! Talking to an ex-LDS
by Qcmbr ini just got an email from someone who played a really formative part of my life who's since left the lds church (my rose tinted spectacles) and it really hurts.
this is why i don't go to ex-lds sites.
its wierd - a lot of you as posters are at the other end of the tunnel - having left/escaped - but it sure as heck feels gut wrenching when your still 'in' and someone you care about leaves.

Ahh this is what you were refering to Little Toe - sorry my fault I read earlier and thought I'd answered your earlier point. Duh I am a dope!!
I won't quibble about words - I'll use yours its the same option - lynched for being a charlatan is definately an option on Joseph Smith.
Just a warning for anyone who doesn't want to read any further - this is my conversion to LDS story - I know this board isn't for this sort of thing so please excuse me as I'm answering LT. I won't be offended if you don't read on (in fact I'll never know hehe) and please don't think for a minute that I'm trying to convert anyone. I don't come here to do that.
OK I can promise you now I won't be able to answer how 'I know' but what the heck I'll give it a go.
Just to set the general scenario - there have been several threads on how does one know what is true / is there such a thing as truth (troof!) etc.. It is one of the basic human conditions - how can we tell and how can we trust our very imperfect senses / brain for anything definitive? The question(s) here was for me:
1/ Does God exist?
2/ Does Jesus exist? If so is He the same as God / Just a man / a myth / A seperate being to God?
3/ Is the Bible telling a true story (despite its obvious errors)?
4/ Is there a reason for life - where am I going?
5/ Who am I and what is my relation to the answer to 1/.
5/ If the above are true then how do I know it?
6/ Did Joseph Smith answer the above questions via a visitation from God and Jesus?
7/ Is Joseph Smith therefore a prophet?
Weighty questions for anyone (well the first 5 are :) and far greater minds than mine have pondered them at length. At 15 I was beginning preparations for a mission and I had to find out for myself because I didn't want to teach 'rubbish' and I didn't want to live 'rubbish' - as I was brought up Mormon it was easy to believe my church's views (anyone born a JW will know what I mean)but my 'testimony' that I had as a 14 year old wasn't good enough for the 15 year old I had become. So this is what happened.
First of all I read the bible twice, cover to cover (Holds hands up - yes I am/was a geek!)
I read the Book of Mormon several times and compared scriptures between the two.
I read the other 'scriptures' accepted by the LDS church.
I sat and thought about these things , I weighed up in all my experiences what seemed right (i.e. The idea of God does feel right to me, I do feel that I'm more than just electrical impulses and meat.)
I then got on my knees and prayed (ie I've though through/ studied this is what seems right - is it? - and while were on the topic - do you exist?) and waited for an 'answer'(in LDS thinking there is a 'burning in the bosom' that is often described.)
I got zilch.
I was seriously surprised and disheartened by that. My whole world shifted - a kind of mental earthquake - because I really expected an answer. For the first time ever I could contemplate that it could all be baloney.
Not willing to give up yet the next night I got down on my knees again and I prayed again - I was fairly desperate this time so I prayed really hard!!
Zilch. No burning feelings, no visions, no angelic chat, no signs - just this sick feeling in my stomach as I contemplated the unthinkable - no God(at least a Christian one) , no LDS life , no answers that I had taken for granted all my life. I was cr*pping myself.
Third night - I had chewed over my options - what would Mum say!, how silly would I look after having spouted so much stuff at school confident that I'd been right.. all the funny things you go through as you play through all the new options that are presented to you. I actually decided that this was it, if I didn't get an answer I was going to leave - disconnect the umbilical cord and walk. When I prayed I talked it all over with God (a very one way conversation!) and basically ended up saying , 'Well I guess you mustn't exist if you don't answer because if you did exist it would be unfair not to answer.'
I got my answer.
Now this is where I lose everyone because only I know what I felt,what happened, what changed inside me. I know that some of you will say its all psychological , self induced hynosis etc etc but frankly I don't care. I was there. I felt something very personal, yet external and special. If forced for words I guess I felt eternity and absolute love (see I said I couldn't explain it) and I also got some very specific answers to my questions. Suffice to say I went on to serve a mission and to experience similar answers / prompts / feelings many times since. Like I've said in other posts - can't explain it , it doesn't make sense but I just cannot deny it. Even when I wobbled and had doubts as I got older (not so much about God but about specific doctrinal stuff) I received for me, undeniably answers - many of those answers are why I'm LDS and not any other religion. -

They are fairly basic.. I also have a fairly basic Tshirt with LEVIS printed on it (my Jewish roots hehe) though I use that for football. They are basically a white TShirt and knee length white jockey shorts. No slip up - I didn't see any point in explaining them in minute detail because don't forget I'm under oath not to.
