Way to steal ideas and content, whomever lifted my post on Heavenly Mother and posted it on CB. Little tip: paraphrasing involves more than moving a couple words around.

Does anyone know where that last idea in particular comes from, because it makes no sense to me. If we actually believe in a Heavenly Mother, then she's God the Mother. She's an exalted, eternal being with all knowledge and power. She doesn't need protecting from anything.
Anyway, the indoctrination is strong with my young padawans.

Originally posted by MaximusWhere does the folklore of Heavenly Mother needing protecting come from?
As in the idea that "Heavenly Father protects Heavenly Mother so people don't use Her name in vain and disrespect Her." it makes no sense to me. If Heavenly Mother exists, than she is God the Mother, and is an exalted, eternal being (all powerful etc.) and she doesnt need protecting from anything.

Originally posted by Indy Coug View PostI think you need to seriously lighten up. This theological poser has been around forever; you present nothing new in content or in concern. There's nothing wrong with Maximus'/Xamius' repackaging of this topic for discussion among a very different demographic than this board. It can be interesting to compare/contrast views between boards.Last edited by Mrs. Funk; 06-11-2013, 12:54 PM."You know, I was looking at your shirt and your scarf and I was thinking that if you had leaned over, I could have seen everything." ~Trial Ad Judge

Originally posted by Mrs. Funk View PostWell, since I don't believe in eternal polygamy, just the one. But then you probably already knew that.
I can/will tell you what I believe though. I believe the Father/Son appeared to Joseph Smith, and gave him enough rope to get the job done (barely) before they called him home. And that the BOM is correct in it's doctrinal message. And that I love the Church of Jesus Christ. And that I love my Family. All of them. wherever they are.

Today was stake conference for us. During the Sunday session all of the stake primary children rushed the stand to join in singing a Father's Day song. In the back of the group was A mentally handicapped guy, probably in his late 40s or early 50s. He was singing right along with the young children, including doing all of the hand gestures to "I'm so glad When daddy comes home". The whole time he was beaming as he looked over at who I assume was his dad in the congregation. It was a really sweet thing to see.

I actually taught this lesson today and had to give a "Thanks for the comment" to a couple people insisting than canned peaches are not "in their season" and are therefore not okay with the WoW. This lesson always brings out the weirdos.
