Re: Faith in Jesus Christ
No, I'm sorry, it does not help. Just knowing that you actively scanned my post for something to disagree with, searched on LDS.org to find something - anything - that would invalidate my feelings, and then make a vain attempt an an appeal to authority, is just so unproductive and pointed. I simply ...

Re: Faith in Jesus Christ
Real hope does not inspire flashy public fanaticism, but diligent obedience to the laws of the land, and thoughtful public and private activity.

Re: Faith in Jesus Christ
My approach to the increasing world violence is a combination of increased faith in Christ (first!) AND a proactive spirit in government, which is another one of God's gifts to us. I have not made it a point to lose relationships over political issues, and even in the times that I have been angry an...

Re: Gun Control
So bravo. Your reactionary, incendiary, illogical, indifferent attack has done more to put me against gun control than anything else so far. Then you have done exactly as I predicted. Trying to fake your way into making me seem uncaring for the dead would be a good tactic - except it's not, and it'...

Re: Gun Control
Where is "Ian the news reporter's" update on the latest mass shooting? Did he conveniently forget? Or was it not worth reporting because it wasn't a "good guy with a gun" story? Would it not help your stance to mention something as horrible as this? Not even a posting of the chur...

Re: Gun Control
The pure nonsense coming from both of you is really helping my point. Thanks guys. I appreciate the work you're putting into this.

Re: Gun Control
That's an totally unfounded accusation, as per usual. You have fallen prey to the classic NRA fear mongering tactic that "they're coming for yer guns!" Incidentally, the NRA magazine published an article that admits to their own faulty understanding about presidential and congressional pow...

Re: Gun Control
Ian, ignore what I want for a moment and think about what other politicians are proposing with regards to gun safety. Do any of those things violate the 2nd amendment? I cannot imagine how doing a scientific study on gun safety would be at all a threat to the constitution.

Re: Gun Control
Mom, as an adult child of adult parent, I am aware of where you stand on the topic, and you have been respectful in the process, which makes it possible for the doorways of communication to remain open (therefore not equating to any "mixed-messages" being sent). When I say "respectful...

Re: Gun Control
Ok Steve, with your permission I will more effectively ignore all of your posts. They don't relate to the topic anyways.
