I don't think this discussion is going in circles. I asked a simple question. Your reply did not answer that question. I will make it more concrete. Using the "best explanation that has been discovered so far," please explain to me how a mouse was created. Be as detailed as you can, please.

What explanation better coincides with current observations? Please provide details.

With regard to the the word "anti-science," by denying evolution without any evidence, one is being "anti-science" in that matter. The anti-evolution views expressed in this forum have nothing to do with the scientific method. Now this doesn't mean they can't be true, but these v...

Unfortunately, like just about every controversial subject on this forum, this has turned into contest of appealing to authority. Who can find the most general authorities that agree with his viewpoint? Well, if these are the rules, the anti-science folks win by a large margin. As mentioned, there a...

Thanks all!!! It's been a wonderful Birthday!

Paul Ekman went to the University of Chicago, so he must pretty cool... Anyway, I am not familiar with his work, but it seems really fascinating. I've heard about a study (I will have to look it up), that showed that psychiatrists were not better than the general public at detecting falsehood. Inter...

Micah, would you mind providing the sources for those quotes? Googling them, the only place I can find any reference to them is on anti-mormon forums or in old medical journals which criticize religion. They cite Relief Society Magazine, an old publication which published hundreds of short stories,...

Micah, how many woman do you know that have 20+ children? I'd love to talk with them. I don't know a single woman that is having children every year. Well, I don't know many! But that is because birth control (whether natural or artificial) usually limits this. If not breastfeeding, most woman will...

Although I must disagree with your statement of Without a method of birth control, every woman would be pregnant approximately every year until menopause. That's just not true. You are right that this isn't true for everyone. It is true for many woman however. But there are many couples who have th...

Your use of the word "opinions" reflects an unfortunate and, I daresay, borderline-apostate misunderstanding of priesthood revelation—that may sound harsh, but consider Brigham Young's statement regarding apostasy: "Whenever there is a disposition manifested in any of the members of ...

Thank you! I loved C. S. Lewis's book, but was unaware that the title was from such a beautiful poem.

How much clearer does it need to be? I really won't try to argue with that quote. The opinions of past leaders are worthwhile and important to me, however, what is most important is the counsel I receive from my priesthood leaders, and the answers I receive from my personal prayers. I am sure many ...

Happy Birthday, Micah! Hope your day is special. Treat yourself to a big stack of pancakes or something yummy to that effect.

And Lily, those are some amazing pancakes! Where did you find that!!!!

Wow!!!! Thanks so much every one!

I guess this shows how bad I have been, that I just found this thread now... I am so sorry, and I realize I need to mend my ways and be more active on the forum!!!!

Thanks so much for the birthday wishes! I am blessed to be part of such a thoughtful family.

I'm curious to know if anyone disagrees with what's been said. Is there a reason we're returning to this subject? I suppose I just assumed we were unanimous in our support of these commandments. Of course there are people who disagree! I am one of them. Birth control has been an immense blessing in...
