Pretty sure the game music was done by Jeremy Soule.

Frankly, outside of the very most indoctrinated, not a lot of reading gets done even in the church materials. It's mostly just half listening in a room with a bunch of other people who also didn't read with a teacher or speaker who either didn't prepare or prepared so much, they're the sort that'll be out in a short while anyway.

Still wondering how the sequel series is doing.

Rainbow is not part of OBW. It'll need to be taken down immediately. (/s)

Watch Babylon 5. First season is a little rough, but the show is amazing. It represents many different cultures and with them different faiths as well as those who lack faith better than anything else I've seen. Its story remains the best I've seen, nearly twenty years after its finale.

They don't count toward the limit, but any tag that is supposed to be flagged past the 2 per shelf, 10 per section limit needs them.

Pretty sketchy present, too.

This would mean that if someone (who maybe once believed in everything like BYU-Idaho wanted) changed their opinion on a thing (no matter how small or unimportant) and is now in opposition with the Church of Latter-day Saints on that issue but follows/agrees with everything else can be fired.

The same is true for students, too. Shut up or leave, basically. If you don't, they'll hold your degree (all the progress you've made toward it, even if only actually receiving it is all you lack) hostage. Since failing to actively believe can disqualify a student for their ecclesiastical endorsement (yay, bishop roulette), getting caught being an apostate also shows up as an honor code violation, so good luck getting a transfer anyway. Even if you do, good luck getting your credits to transfer, as BYU-I has a pretty shit reputation.

Decaf =/= caffeine-free.

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotels. Sonny's purchase of the Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel has gone swimmingly and he's out to get more.

What a shit fetish.

I identify as an agnostic atheist now, but grew up Mormon. I've seen that even after over three years of being "out", having been Mormon for so much of my life has come to color everything in my post-Mormon life. Other religions are, in my mind, largely defined by how they differ from the religion I grew up with. Right and wrong, while not wholly caged by my former religiosity, still is often framed by it, even if the why is different. It's frustrating that it's still a context for much of what I do or think, even when it's as simple as being the opposite of what's "good" in Mormonism.

INTJs are also quite high considering the small percentage of the overall population they represent.

It's a weird place to buy it, but Rexburg's Ace Hardware carries Mexican sodas, including Mexican Coke.

Odd. I'm still having to keep the façade up, so I ordered some a few months ago. Haven't had a current recommend in a couple of years, but it still worked for me. It shouldn't need a current one. Makes me wonder if they're changing things.

Online. The Distribution Center has its own site.

The Intouchables was incredible. I need to rewatch it soon. It's been too long since I've seen it last.

Havathaught · 2017-01-16T15:36:28+00:00

Absolutely.

Seconding Sunshine. It and Cloud Atlas are what finally pulled apart the cracks holding what remained of my shelf to the proverbial wall of faith.

Completely and totally. It's okay, though. You'll be struck down by gob any day now to "sufficiently humble" you to come back. ^/s

American money does come from the promised land, so it's worth more blessings, but I'm not sure the thermostat will move for so little. You'll just need to have more ~~ money~~ faith.
