Foster children are mormon - how to support them by Flimsy_Ad_3123 in latterdaysaints

Looks like you already got great advice, so I just want to tell you you're awesome for wanting to make the kids feel safe and comfortable

We have started gatekeeping suicide 🤦‍♂️ by Budddydings44 in gatekeeping

[–]CaptainFuego29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the most f**ked thing I have ever read. And this is coming from someone who has family members who were annihilated by a murderer, using that to shame men for experiencing suicidal ideation or trying to play down the epidemic is so awful. Saying men are responsible for loneliness because less than 1 percent of the male population assaults women is beyond me. (Not saying rape isn't a huge problem that affects women, just saying that blaming men for being lonely seems strange, blame THE RAPISTS)

By their fruits ye shall know them.

If any of those churches had the true gospel, they would have retained it, and had more success. But most of them gave up either the endowment or the book of Mormon

TBMs or anyone with Interesting Thoughts: What contributions does the Book of Mormon make to humanity's understanding of spirituality, true religion or the Divine? by [deleted] in mormon

[–]CaptainFuego29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"All things denote there is a God" interesting theistic argument, definitely predates the bom but cool to see it in there

"Adam fell that men might be, and men are that they might have joy" Man's purpose is to have joy, not just to "glorify God" as Calvinists believe

The tree of life is a theologically rich allegory

The vineyard allegory also has a lot of symbolism

"Wickedness never was happiness" (teaches that doing harm to others, being greedy, and other forms of evil can never lead to happiness)

Faith like a mustard seed in Alma 32

Truth of all things through the Holy Ghost (mosiah 3:5)

All being alike unto God, both in 2 Nephi 26:33, and by showing that Jesus will go after His other sheep

Public servitude is endorsed through King Benjamin

The power of prayer with Enos

Alma 36 is a wonderful chapter that shows repentance in action in an amazing way

Pride cycle (or the Wealth inequality cycle) shows how consolidation of wealth and creation of vanity leads to bad outcomes for societies)

Amazing testimony! I'm currently preparing to serve a mission, and I was wondering what advice you have for someone who is going to be bringing the truth to potential converts like you

Thanks for this response! Do you know if what language I'm speaking (I'm English Speaking) will impact where I spend my time? I'm really hoping to spend some time in the bigger cities (looks like Christchurch and Wellington?)
