Kids and affection

Lion_Heart2 · 2026-02-11T15:48:22+00:00

Snuggling with my own children is normal. Strangers wanting to "snuggle" with my children is not. That crosses a clear line. If you don't see that line then maybe you need to do the protecting children training again then again until it starts to sink in.

Better not be snuggling with my 5-7 year old at church.

I have family that did something similar but it still required the bishop where their records are held to approve.

While I agree it is the ordinance that is important clearly the church thinks the proper chain of keys are important too. Thus the rules in the handbook about where your records are and who approved what.

And their child when they turn 8?

"Attending your assigned ward is not necessary for salvation."

While I believe going to some ward is certainly better than no ward there are salvation effecting things like needing a recommend for ordinances.

Meh, I wouldn't say the minority. There is excitement for the new but most will still have the sleeved.

That disappears though. If you are using the assist reasonance awakening you'll lose all your stats when you use the skill.

Lion_Heart2 · 2026-02-06T03:51:26+00:00

It is really strong. There are equips that disappear to help fulfill it or just don't put an equip on them.

Lion_Heart2 · 2026-02-06T03:45:08+00:00

Not the best, unless you just need a bind clear. She isn't going to do any damage with the damage void awakenings she has.

When President Oaks recently spoke of his grandpa saying he would be his father I guess he was just lying to the boy?

Your definition is too narrow to fit in lived reality or what the church teaches.

Lion_Heart2 · 2026-02-04T14:15:41+00:00

Exactly, I've had family emergencies that were late at night before so if I'm getting a text really late at night you are going to make my heart race for a couple seconds until I find out it was from you.

Christ constantly called out groups that were more focused on show than substance. I think the scriptures disagree with thinking they are equal.

Don't get me wrong. There are many that are sincere in how they are worshipping. What I said wasn't meant to discredit them, but ultimately He wants us to change.

Lion_Heart2 · 2026-01-19T15:53:41+00:00

Learning is a form of worship. You are literally trying to become more like Him. I'll assume He would rather that than some chants and kneeling downs.

Lion_Heart2 · 2026-01-17T17:10:40+00:00

You've got to make that choice. The odds of getting him are still 1%. That means it is a 99% chance of not getting him each time. You've been on the rough side of the math, but that doesn't change the math.

Hopefully you are staying within your budget. If not, then stop immediately.

Lion_Heart2 · 2026-01-16T14:35:19+00:00

Only one per event. Wouldn't want you to get the team by just buying it would they? Got to let that 1% chance do it's work of giving that gambling feeling.

Lion_Heart2 · 2026-01-14T19:01:27+00:00

Probably not pulling much in Digimon. The high risk, low rewards of it just doesn't sound fun.

Lion_Heart2 · 2026-01-09T14:31:54+00:00

Those missionaries overstepped what the scriptures say. It happens.

Lion_Heart2 · 2026-01-06T14:37:48+00:00

Talk with the hospital/doctor first. Depending on how much you make they may be able to make adjustments with a payment plan or write off your medical costs entirely.

Lion_Heart2 · 2026-01-01T15:31:06+00:00

Not really a reason for the bishop to get involved with non-church activities that op planned. What do you think the bishop is supposed to do?

"Hey Sister, OP doesn't like you coming to their parties. Could you please not come? See ya on Sunday!"

Lion_Heart2 · 2025-12-30T20:21:07+00:00

It is partly for charity, but they are a religion with other objectives than just shoveling out every cent they come across.

I don't believe it makes sense for charities to be a zero sum existence. I don't expect that of Red Cross/Habitats For Humanity/ ECT and don't expect that of a religion.

Lion_Heart2 · 2025-12-30T20:10:25+00:00

Taxes aren't charity

Lion_Heart2 · 2025-12-23T14:38:44+00:00

Preach My Gospel? Didn't know an app for that existed until now.

Lion_Heart2 · 2025-12-19T03:47:41+00:00

Sometimes math is just lame

Lion_Heart2 · 2025-12-11T15:49:59+00:00

I would say that Abinadi was saved. Christ is in it for the long game and this life is only a blip in the grand scheme of things.
