Why do missionaries tract?

"He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me"

I love my mother and father more than God. It's not even close.

I think I find Hallelujah refreshing compared to Commando.

Amen brother. Is he a cougarboard exile?

[Jeff Lebowski]

LOL. Hilarious avatar choice, wuap.

Agreed.

Some times, when a thread takes a turn like this (thanks to commando) you think to yourself, 'Something should be said about that... but if I say something I will just be adding fuel to a fire.' So what do you do?

No one deserves to be ridiculed for being needy of love, family, community, home, security, friendship, a sympathetic ear, kindness, support, etc.

Much appreciated. I feel like I was thinking these thoughts and went to type them and there you were.

"Family is forever, except for two years when you shouldn't think about them."


you are still the biggest pussy on this board and it's even worse that you try to justify it by saying backhanded things about LDS doctrine. Keep justifying your private little forms of apostasy by using relativism and "nuance." Those are great terms. Dissension is not sedition. wow-- keep the revolution alive, slugger.

Technically, my "little forms" would be heresy, not apostasy.

The Lakers beat the Pacers to win the NBA championship while I was out. That was tough.

The Lakers lost to the Bulls in the Finals while I was out, Magic revealed that he had HIV, and the 80s Lakers dynasty came to an official close.

In a way, I was really happy to not witness any of it.

I did come home in time to see the Lakers play the Suns in the playoffs. The Lakers go up 2-0 against the overwhelming favorites and head back to LA to play the next 2. The Suns proceed to sweep the next 3. AC Green and James Worthy get into a fight on the court. Horrible.

fyi, I was a Zone Leader for 14 months. The only reason I wasn't AP is that I wasn't quite a big enough toady. My MP didn't trust me.

He was just keeping his enemies close, but not too close.

This thread seems to have taken a turn for the worse.

Let me just say that the desire to call home or catch up with relatives is not always a function of homesickness, per se. My brother became engaged while I was on my mission. My older sister had her second baby girl. My younger sister graduated high school. Lots of stuff where it would have been nice to check in once a month to see what was up. And also to share cool experiences with everyone else.

If that makes wuap an oversized vag, then I will happily join him as one that apparently suffers from the same hermaphroditic condition.

Yes I am too cool to cry... over being homesick! Since your balls apparently snuck away a long time ago, why don't you join them and leave the Church if you are still sniffling about having to leave mommy and daddy for a couple years.

"He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me"

Fuck off. I didn't love them more than God........the rule varies from mission to mission, so it's not some kind of commandment....it's up to the capriciousness of the mission president and what he feels works best. My two MPs had different rules. I was able to call home, but I feel for those who couldn't. It's a tradition. Dissension is not sedition, but I wouldn't expect a dolt like you to understand nuance.

As I've said before, my wife made a pair of earrings out of my balls and wears them to Church to show people who's boss, but I don't think they look good. Small earrings are much better.

If we're going ad hominem here, I have a sneaking suspicion that says you make nervous jokes about homosexuals.
