Hum. I've read before things that indicate that Jesus Christ is the Savior of all of God's children, but Adam and Eve's actions causing teh fall of all people on all planets I'm not sure I agree with. Do you have quotes or scriptures that imply that, or is it purely your own speculation? I'm curiou...

You mean David Attenborough. He's the famous narrator of nature programs. His older brother is Richard Attenborough and he's an actor, director and producer, not a narrator. Anyway, David Attenborough will be narrating Life for one of its DVD releases. Ack! You're right! I meant David Attenborough....

#57107 The Fall on Other Worlds
I can't find anything to back this up (okay, the truth is I haven't even looked), but I have this idea in my head that 1. Jesus is the Savior of all of Heavenly Father's creations and 2. when Adam and Even transgressed, all of Heavenly Father's creations Fell—including the other occupied planets a...

The Hobbes and Marzipan Borg thread was getting full, so I thought I'd post this here since it's (somewhat) appropriate. I enjoyed the assimilation, the Borg-ified names, and the blog. The only thing that got on my nerves was their choice of font. Courier is just garish and difficult to read. It's h...

The BBC/Discovery Channel series "Life"
First of all, why didn't they keep Richard Attenborough for the American release? He's awesome! Oprah Winfrey is great in her own way, but I felt she was lacking as a narrator. Oh, well. On to the real point of my post. Go to the show page here . Watch the clip about Orcas hunting elephant seal pups...

Re: To listen or not to listen?
You're absolutely right: most of us are obsessed with our own opinions to the extent that we feel this urge to reward those who agree with us and punish those who don't, no matter what the issue.... And yet, many times we hear an opposite viewpoint, our knee-jerk reaction is to shut them up. Should...

Re: To listen or not to listen?
But some people live a particular lifestyle and others advocate it. You're not buying their interview with Rolling Stone—you're buying their music. I see that as a huge difference. If the music promotes an objectionable lifestyle that's a different story. But if they use the money they made from ...

Doesn't God also allow natural selection? Isn't it possible that some creatures are supposed to die out eventually? So by saving them, are we helping or hindering God's plan? I think what the Board writers were saying is that if we had just left that area alone, it's possible that those creatures/p...

The problem becomes that we would be intent on understanding the lifestyles, advocacies, and every aspect of every singer/artist/company that we patronize. I hope this doesn't sound overly cynical, but if we did not patronize any company or artist we found to be promoting something we found as mora...

To listen or not to listen?
I think there could be something more nuanced going on here than the concerns the writers addressed.* It's one thing to say that buying just about any music is going to support a lifestyle that is at variance with our religious beliefs. Or movies, for that matter. But some people live a particular l...

Preventing Extinctions
I'm surprised the writers didn't mention that we should conserve species because they're God's creations. If He thought they were important enough to create, shouldn't we think they're important enough to rescue from extinction? I think part of having dominion and stewardship over all the earth is n...

So I thought I'd throw in something. Before leaving on my mission, I worked in a store that was next to a popular lakeside marina. Females of all shapes and sizes, exhibiting a wide range of skin coverage (or lake thereof) came into the store. I'm not an oversexed person, but with all those bikinis ...

I would have certainly preferred to hear penis and orgasm instead of hearing about how I have a little built in factory that needs to release itself on occasion or how I have a built in stop sign that pops up so I know when I should stop kissing a girl. Yup, I've heard both in priesthood classes. O...
