• Schism on the Right! Gay-Hater vs. Mexican-Hater

  
  Orange Juice — Authority: 551
  For your Oscar consideration: 9-1/2 minutes of friction between a Minuteman and a Westboro Baptist, outside last year’s Saddleback Church Presidential debate.  Can the GOP hang together in spite of bitter divisions like these?  (Kidding, I know you’re not all this crazy!  But still, how will you deal with these ...

  The Exponent — Authority: 492
  By Starfoxy When I was a kid I could never talk anyone into playing board games with me. When I was in grade school it was because my siblings were so much older than me. A game of pictionary junior just wasn’t appealing to my teenaged sisters. When I was teen and my group of friend had the inevitable “what do ...

• Family Friday: A Mother’s Love

  
  Mormon Women: Who We Are — Authority: 130
  ~by Jenny Last night, while tightly hugging me around my neck, my twenty-three month old spontaneously told me that she loved me – for the first time. ”I love you.” Oh, how those words hold such magic. I immediately became a puddle of mommy love, Callie melting to the ground with me. I then filed this memory ...

• The Kanes Have a Mormon Thanksgiving

  
  Keepapitchinin, the Mormon History blog — Authority: 137
  Thomas L. Kane, the 19th century Philadelphia lawyer for whom Utah’s Kane County was named, was moved by his humanitarian instincts to champion causes as varied as educational reform, the anti-slavery movement, and the troubles of the Mormons. Without Kane’s timely negotiations between Brigham Young and Alfred ...

• My Phoenix Flames

  
  The Exponent — Authority: 492
  Celebration in Florence City Center by D’Arcy A phoenix is a mythical bird with a tail of beautiful gold and red plumage. It has a 600-800 year life-cycle, near the end of which it builds itself a nest of cinnamon twigs that it then ignites; both nest and bird burn fiercely and are reduced to ashes, from which a ...

• Perspective

  
  Mormon Matters — Authority: 541
  Everybody blogs, right? Why not me? Looking for my niche, my angle, and the one thing that seemed to make me stand out in my corner of the world. I found it: Being single. And 40. And Mormon. In a family ward. In a town where EVERYONE is under 30, sealed in the [...]

• A British Thanksgiving (on the Down-Low)

  
  Mormon Matters — Authority: 541
  This is kind-of an impromptu post and so I hope you can forgive the intrusion.  But, I love Thanksgiving.  Ever since I celebrated it for the first time as a missionary I was hooked.  Good food.  Fun. Gratitude.  Consequently I decided that I would want to continue that tradition as best I could for my family.  ...

• What are you thankful for Part 2?

  
  Mormon Heretic — Authority: 110
  Inspired by Hawkgrrrl’s post over at Mormon Matters , I decided to write a post asking what you’re thankful for.  It doesn’t have to necessarily be Mormon-related.  I realize I asked this question last year , and I talked about the First Thanksgiving last year, but I think we don’t talk about our thanks ...

• Thanksgiving

  
  By Common Consent, a Mormon Blog — Authority: 476
  The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade is on the TV, as it is every Thanksgiving morning. My grandma was a firm believer in this Parade, and would even get up early to watch it live, sipping her Sanka and making me a grilled cheese sandwich and frozen red grapes. As an adult, I don’t particularly care for parades, let ...

• Televangelists Exposed

  
  Windy Sydney — Authority: 430
  Ever notice how the people who claim to be close to God are the same people who are leading a secret double life? From being caught with drugs, committing adultery (including *gasp* gay sex!) to stealing church funds to enhance your lifestyle. Of course, their God might want them to have mansions and millions of ...

• All night thinking of blessings

  
  By Common Consent, a Mormon Blog — Authority: 476
  Last night was an exciting one at my house. My fourth son opened his mission call. Family and friends gathered around, some on skype from far away, some listening on the phone. He was nervous. Where would he spend the next two years? All three of his older brothers served missions. In fact, one is still serving in ...

  Mormon Women: Who We Are — Authority: 130
  We thought this poem would be enjoyable for those celebrating Thanksgiving today in the United States. (Don’t live in the U.S.? We would love to have submissions that share glimpses of holidays in your part of the world!) ~By Dianne Billstrom When I site down To a scrumptious meal, I can’t describe ...

• Happy Thanksgiving, Bros

  
  By Common Consent, a Mormon Blog — Authority: 476
  [Cross-posted to In Medias Res ] (Note: this is going to be another one of those boring family posts . So best read it now, rather than after dinner, so as to avoid any indigestion.) Marjorie, like her older sister Samatha, is a long-suffering soul. She was raised, obviously, as a Fox, meaning she was ...

• Good and Faithful Servant

  
  By Common Consent, a Mormon Blog — Authority: 476
  Last week I discovered that my grandfather had given my family one final gift. My aunt has been settling his estate, and despite the many outflows that accumulated over the years, there was enough left in my grandfather’s estate to patch a few roofs, repair a few cars, and replace lost furniture (or a rug), ...

• Is New Moon the New Cool? -By Amita Benedetti

  
  Mormon Matters — Authority: 541
  For anyone vaguely familiar with the Latter-day Saints, the many parallels between the Twilight Saga and the Church’s theology will be apparent.As a mother of two and full-time secondary school teacher, I was adamant not to read the novels in spite of having been asked, begged and ordered a countless number of times ...

• My Mormon thanks

  
  By Common Consent, a Mormon Blog — Authority: 476
  1. A young, newly married woman was called to our ward’s nursery. A week later, she called and asked if she could come over to our home and get to know our nursery age child. She spent an hour on the floor with our two year-old, reading and rolling balls, laughing and singing. Thank you, A, and all of those who ...

  By Common Consent, a Mormon Blog — Authority: 476
  It’s Thanksgiving, and time for some navel gazing, since that’s really what we in the bloggernacle do best, isn’t it? However, before turning the time over to anyone who wants to express their heartfelt love and gratitude for the bloggernacle, please indulge me while I share a piece of my own story, since today ...

  By Common Consent, a Mormon Blog — Authority: 476
  Traipsing up the corporate priesthood ladder from Deacon to Elder is pretty regimented: 12, 14, 16, then 18 or 19 or so. But the jump to High Priests is different. You have to be called to a calling that requires becoming a High Priest to actually become one. This can be a little bit awkward when you continue to ...

• Adoption & babies from a LDS view?

  
  LDS Mormon Forums — Authority: 162
  I think God is leading us to adopt a child with special needs. Im interested in this from a LDS theological view. Can you help me work this out in my head? We are pre-mortally living in heaven. My biological (earthly) children were pre-destined to be mine and were waiting in heaven to come down to earth and be my ...

• Question about the BoM

  
  LDS Mormon Forums — Authority: 162
  I recently was given a copy of the Book of Mormon by some missionaries I have been talking to. I am very excited and want to learn as much about the LDS Church (which in my mind every day I come to think of it more and more as the true Church of Jesus Christ) and I was reading through 1 Nephi and I encountered 1 ...
