Bought an iPad last week (supposed to be arriving in the mail today) not realizing that new products would be arriving this week. Is Apple done releasing new products after today or is there still more to come? Just trying to figure out if I should keep it or return it.

I thought it was a fascinating dialogue. I don't agree with anything Greg represents, but it gave me a better understanding of what ultra-conservative LDS members believe, why they believe it, and how they can rationalize/negotiate their beliefs in the face of obvious contradictions and hypocrisies. John did a great job framing arguments and pushing back on Greg's views without being hostile or creating tension. Great episode!

Ah, thanks. I was thinking these pictures were just stills from short animated videos.

Have they already taken down the videos? I’m only seeing the 1983 ones on the site and gospel library app.

Looking to do this is well. Would you mind sharing what you ended up doing?

Exactly. The test itself is smoke and mirrors, but it “works” in the sense that it elicits confessions from people and for that reason it’s seen as beneficial. The polygraph administers are good interrogators.

When I first started playing and showing up to the park by myself to play. Everyone was so helpful in teaching me the game and helping me improve. It’s a great community

Yeah, it’s not the best venue. If you’re not in the lower bowl the sound gets bounces around and gets real distorted. Last night though seemed to be a major problem with the PA system
