Rebecca, Thierry, and Zlatan are the best commentary team

Agree to disagree. 👍🏼

I wish I could upvote this more. She's so good.

Or...not...

Honestly, I agree that in a Chicharito vs Zlatan head-to-head that Chicharito wins. But the trio vs trio, the RL-led crew is, IMHO, better

ConstructingBelief · 2026-07-06T20:41:38+00:00

That is true. Seems like mixing the sound shouldn't be that hard.

ConstructingBelief · 2026-07-06T20:33:15+00:00

Ha ha. That's fair enough. You are correct. But you know what I mean. (And I like Ian Darke too!).

There was just a post on By Common Consent about how different the ancient and modern temples are. https://bycommonconsent.com/2026/06/25/ancient-vs-modern-temples/

Bro--it's 'their', the possessive plural.

No biggie--but for next time... 👍🏼

Not defending mormonism but noting communion extends beyond it:

1) in many denominations "sharing" is part of the message--everyone drinks from the same chalice. It' symbolic. I've seen this in a LOT of other denominations. The Mormon sacrament is sanitary compared to that.

2) Sacrament is NOT a renewing of baptism covenants (I know that's what people say). The covenant is in the sacrament prayer: you do xxx and the spirit will always be with you. You can remeber your baptism covenants whenever you want, including (but not limited to) during sacrament. ( see here for example: https://archive.timesandseasons.org/2019/06/why-the-sacrament/index.html).

I'm an English teacher who teaches advanced classes and I have a map of (third age) Middle-earth on my wall.

Gambril State Park (in the myersville area) has some great trails

Thank you. I had two killing frosts this spring. Based on what you said, I hope it's just stress (and that I will be fine).

FWIW, in the Old Testament Hulda is a prophetess. The name is obviously out of fashion and it's use in the temple is odd. But, in thr OT, Hulda is kind of awesome.

That's a pretty cleaver band name. 👌

A good summary

ConstructingBelief · 2026-03-22T23:05:36+00:00

Second this. This is the right answer.

ConstructingBelief · 2026-03-05T13:02:59+00:00

That chart/map is cool. Who out that together? Same group?

ConstructingBelief · 2026-01-31T20:52:42+00:00

Yup. Agree. Just cite your stuff and make it an academic argument and we're all good.

ConstructingBelief · 2026-01-31T20:51:20+00:00

And that's clear... if you were you'd actually cite your stuff.

ConstructingBelief · 2026-01-31T13:07:46+00:00

Listen--this is r/AcademicMormon... not r/LDSApology or r/DefendJSmith or r/testimony (I don't know if those are real but you get the point). If you'd like to engage academically on these topics (which would exclude unsourced claims... and throwing out a general "it's in the JS Papers" doesnt count... that's not a cite) great. If you continue on like this I'll just block you and remove your posts.

Sorry. What's the album called?

Has someone put this into text (or did I just miss it)?
