October 7th, 1999. Was a miserable date. Early snow. Sucked.

Unfortunately not everyone
I’d like someone to ask them their thoughts on the recent evidence that Israel was selling the weapons we’ve given them to Russia. So in a way, we’re supporting Russia in their invasion of Ukraine at the same time we’re supporting a genocide.
Somewhat bad faith, VP has almost no real power or influence on these masters. With both as potential POTUS’, they should both be held to the same standard by the press.
That’s the thing though. They know nobody would ever do this voluntarily.
It’s the principle of the thing. These companies keep overreaching all the time.
While I agree, how sad is it that we live in a world where this kind of trash isn’t abnormal
That would be funny, but probably just best to ignore the creep
Just saw that her endorsement prompted 307k new voter registrations TODAY.
Heh nice call, did grow up in Idaho, but didn’t start doing temple stuff until I was in California.
Anywho, sorry never heard anything about changing any historical facts about anyone. (Not even sure where that came up in the thread, but forgive me, it’s almost 4 am 🤣). The past is the past. Just offering them the “atonement” or whatever. They could still decide whether or not to accept.
Anywho, it’s a sucky religion, and I’ve used up my quota of energy on it for the quarter.
I hope you have an excellent rest of your life, free from the special Mormon flavor of religion!
Not really sure what you mean. Me and everyone I knew absolutely believed we were offering salvation for each person we were doing this for. If you didn’t, then you weren’t a good mormon (honestly, good for you, I wish I wasn’t so in the coolaid)
They have kids, 12+ do this all the time, and they use other submitted names, with literally no relationship to any of the names the kid is baptized for. There’s no “supposed to be related” they just encourage it to make you feel more personally attached to the work.
Also if you were in it more recently than I, perhaps they changed it. It’s been about a decade, and despite what they say, they change their story all the time.
And Mormonism does it more than others. There’s not only 4 places you can go after you die, but the “heaven” (best) one has 3 separate levels in it as well. You can only go to super secret top tier heaven if you’re Mormon, get sealed (eternity married) in the temple, and remember all the secret handshakes and your special name learned in the temple.
(The name isn’t even that special, they just make it seem like it is. Every person of the same gender as you (remember there’s only 2 🙄🙄) gets the same name for that date. They’re all biblical names, and since there’s only like 8 women mentioned in the Bible (because why would they right?), they’re recycled even more making your super special secret temple name super common.)
Additionally, of you get a special placement in the afterlife based on what church you associate with, and not even based on your deeds and intentions, then that’s F’d up. You could be literally the best person ever, but if your Catholic or atheist, you don’t get into super secret top tier heaven. That’s reserved for the sycophants.
There’s a huge pull for Mormons to see their family again, it’s one of the ways they manipulate you the hardest. If you’re a good mormon, but this other person wasn’t, then you’ll basically never see them again. (Or meet them, in the case of ancestors). Plus it’s a bragging point, I knew people who kept a count of everyone they did this for.
As an ex-mormon, I feel I should point out that they don’t believe they’re claiming the dead whom they’re baptizing. They’re providing an opportunity for the dead person to choose and accept the baptism.
That said, f#*# organized religion. The Mormon church especially.
Sorry about that dude! This doesn’t help with the pain right now, but they’ve just started human trials on a new therapy that re-enables your tooth buds, allowing you to grow a new set of adult teeth. Maybe it’ll be available soonish 🤞

It’s in the proton pass app. You only get so many in the free tier, but I did the premium, so it’s unlimited.
Edit spelling
I have a brother in Oregon, they auto register there.
*Warning: you will get texted so use your disposable number
When I filled it out, email was required, phone was not.
Also, I use proton.me, and they have a really nice email masker, so you can generate throwaway email addresses, which is nice!
I’ve had this thought many times, glad I’m not alone. Also makes you wonder if possibly everyone’s “favorite” color is the same color, we just all call it different things because of how we individually perceive it.
This is a fun thought, but I can disprove this myself easily enough due to having had my favorite color change multiple times in my lifetime. Currently enjoying green.
