  Death and Resurrection

  by pascaljon in

  i thought it would be interesting to raise a question that was brought up by mike purbrick (anybody know him) at the mts (england, 1992).

  the question relates to whether a resurrected peson is really the same person if they are only genetically identical and somehow impregnated with the memories of the deceased.

  in short, if my spirit is not personal to me, and no part of me survives to the resurrected being then can it really be me, or is it just a copy?

  i've been lurking on the fringes of this site for a week or two and was just wondering whether there is anybody else here that i knew from the ministerial training school.

  i was second to apostasise from my class (that being the fifth in britain, 1992) and thought it would be good to know if anybody else was here.

  also, while i'm at it, if there's anybody with a connection to norwich thorpe congregation or with information on sarah brett it would be good to hear from you too.

  Can anybody point me in the direction of a district convention?

  i know some of you may find this strange, but i really want to go along to a district convention this year.

  its been eight years since i last went and i was wondering how things would look from a mature apostate perspective.

  a convention near to sheffield england would be good, but perhaps not too near so i can avoid being trailed by security.

  What would you say to a Mormon dealing with this?

  ive been reading up on the latter-day saint (mormon) doctrine of polygamy.

  information on the church website (http://www.lds.org) says:

  "in this dispensation, the lord commanded some of the early saints to practice plural marriage.

  Mormons Last Night

  i mentioned last week in another thread that some mormons were to be coming by.

  the way all this came about was that, in late april, my wife and i went to las vegas for a few days.

  she was assigned by her company to attend a conference there, and, since i had never been more than a few miles west of the mississippi river, decided to tag along to see the sights.

  Jehovah & the Military

  i'm not quite sure how to start this one, i'm new here and feel a bit of an outsider.

  my sisters and mother are jehovah's witnesses and have been as long as i can remember.

  i however, chose to follow a different path.
