        Most people are scared to vote in this thread, I see.

            Not really. I think the demographics of this forum are pretty well established and the results more or less fall into line with that.

              I find the "my tribe" option offensive.
              "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                  Seriously? Do you have any interesting Zebulon tidbits?

                    Yeah, I think most Mormons suck too.

                    My half-truth would be a more appropriate answer for me.

                        Personally, I am not a fan of tribalism. I think at best it was a step in human progression that was a mixed bag. But Mormonism is demonstrably a throw back to that step. So, I am just asking the question. (I would never identify myself as being part of any tribe; it goes against some of my most heart felt convictions.)

                            Utes stands for universalism, you dope. It's a secular university.

                              If the available answers were not gobbledegook I would choose one.
                              “There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”
                              ― W.H. Auden


                              "God made the angels to show His splendour - as He made animals for innocence and plants for their simplicity. But men and women He made to serve Him wittily, in the tangle of their minds."
