88, 89, 90 was three years where 49's ruled and I would at times do work coded 3490 and there was an apparent match. @-)

One evening I went to the local 7 with a couple friends/co-workers who wanted to taunt Gimpy, which is what they called the poor handicapped guy that worked there. Seems they had had confrontations and they wanted me to join in their mis-guided battle. We strode about the store being loud and stuff to annoy the guy, but I began to realize they were on a bad mission to make life miserable for some poor guy, doing his best to deal with his unfortunate situation.

There were 49er Jersey's hanging up and I had just acquired Gerry Rice and other 49 players in the latest fad of fantasy football, so I bought one of the shirts and soon thereafter the earthquake struck during the world-series

Then there's Gilgal Gardens.

Thomas Child, a masonry contractor and Bishop of the 10th Salt Lake LDS ward, conceived of a symbolic sculpture garden that would be a retreat from the world and a tribute to his most cherished religious and personal beliefs.[1] He began building the garden in the backyard, when he was 57 years old, and continued to pour his time and money into the work until his death in 1963. Child named the garden Gilgal after the Biblical location where Joshua ordered the Israelites to place twelve stones as a memorial. The name "Gilgal" is sometimes translated to mean "circle of standing stones," an appropriate appellation for a sculpture garden. Gilgal is also the name of a city and a valley in The Book of Mormon, a sacred scripture in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Once upon a time, spy frequented The Gigal Garden. Funny, there’s a potential number fifty seven anomaly for anyone keeping track. Spy also once gave away pounds of titanium. The search link will find posts about user name Gilgal for LDSFF members.

https://ldsfreedomforum.com/viewtopic.p ... 19#p813119 Works for nonmembers and shows a video about OTEC, which is one of spy’s true passions. Also a pic of the Gilgal geocache. The titanium prizes were a follow on from a silver price guessing game by Silver who lived in the Wiseman neighborhood of San Antonio. Spy attended church there once while there for training, but didn’t understand a lick of the Spanish service.

And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit;
and they shall prophesy:"

My dearly departed SIL uttered words that were later confirmed to be true, by something the Davidic Servant posted in Outer Darkness.

You are very close to the fire and it warms you truly and you lack not faith, but you are a precious sheep without a shepard, look to Jesus alone my brother and He will lead you by the hand into timeless happiness.
Jesus of Nazerath is Lord.

Looking at the question from a strictly layperson/non-scholar PoV, I find the idea of a god who is much like us, just getting by, down in the nitty-gritty with ordinary people, somewhat appealing. (I'm not saying, however, that this is what I believe.) It's not too far from the not unpopular idea that god is, and is in, everything.

Interestingly enough, that is one of the reasons I find Mormonism appealing. God in Mormonism isn't the classical omni-everything of traditional Christianity. He has to work with eternally existent material, in a sense making do with what he has available.

Well, I just watched the video for their new song. It's painfully obvious that the real talent was in John Lennon and George Harrison. Color me unimpressed with Paul and Ringo:

Names that begin with, or contain C followed by H have always stood out to me since an encounter in the church office building on March 8th. Many years later, Cher Ami appeared in a GC video and I was learning about similitudes and symbols at the time. Said little bird is said to have saved the lives of many soldiers caught up in friendly fire in the Argonne Forest. They were part of the 308th brigade. The video also showed how to tune a radio, which relates to language in my PB. C is the third letter of the alphabet, and H is the eighth, so combined it made my choice of avatar an easy one.

Randy Bell has done a lot more interesting work on Dartmouth and Mormonism.

viewtopic.php?p=2441&hilit=practised+au ... ting#p2441

… START OF RANT
The truth is that PPP had a sales/trade route that he traveled every year that went from around Palmyra NY to Sandusky OH. It is reported and testified to that Sidney Rigdon had a manuscript that he had copied from a manuscript that he had borrowed from a printer in Pittsburg. That manuscript supposedly was written by Solomon Spalding. There is testimony that Spalding's manuscript was the Book of Mormon without the theology. It is reported and testified to that Rigdon added text to his copy during sessions where he practised automatic writing.

Now without knowing any of this the Spirit told me, "that man is the source of the theology in the Book of Mormon". And that was during an LDS movie at the time that the Sidney Rigdon character first appeared on screen. I also did not know at that time about PPP and his wagon route between Palmyra and Sandusky. In the bishop's office when the bishop shared a quote by PPP the Spirit told me that PPP was the angel that brought the plates took them away and brought them back a year later. So it can be deduced that the 116 pages was really the complete manuscript that Martin Harris gave to his wife to read. And she traded it back to PPP on his way out of the area.

So first the Spirit tells me these things and later I find the verification …

Are you incapable of fact checking yourself before posting?

If Ajax gets things wrong then blame Breitbart. Suggesting it was from having too much aluminum foil wrapped on his head would be incorrect. The foil is very light.

Drill. Frack. Burn coal. Embrace nuclear. Quit paying people to stay home. Reform the Fed to exclusively focus on stabilizing the dollar. Rescind unconstitutional federal regulations. This is how we unleash growth & achieve >5% GDP. Stop apologizing for American success

The topic of the “Davidic Servant” continues to prove an annoyance for the upper crust of the Church.

And this is perhaps why the LDS Apologist/Think Tank “FAIR” churned out a short piece refuting the idea over the weekend.



… Given the vast empire religion wields over the minds of its adherents, such a deprecation serves as an implicit form of censorship calculated to make external scholarship to that of the consensus appear fringe. By doing so, this apologist effectively turns the minds of most would-be investigator away from researching the topic for himself …
