    So are you suggesting that I stop acknowledging the good qualities of the church and the good it can do?

      Yeah, but aren't you officially "out" as far as any chance you'll ever attend again? Seems more like you've climbed over the fence are just recognizing that the yard next door has some nice landscaping.
      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

          It the LDS church decided to interpret the WoW as stated in Section 89, abandoned patriarchy, gave women the Priesthood and equal representation in leadership, and abandoned all discriminatory policies towards homosexuals, I'd be willing to come back.

            I think Funk is aiming at being a person of color in his next life.

              I thought about making that joke, but thought better of it. Heh.

                    So, based on what we know about the LDS church and the men that lead it, you're out for good.

                    Well, at least we'll still have your hockey posts.

                      seriously, though, what happened to the suicide smiley?

                        It was removed because it did not come with a trigger warning.

                        • Can somebody submit my resignation papers for me? I'm so busy and it's not a high priority. My assistant can send you an esig. Thanks! I'll buy you lunch sometime!

                            Sometimes I think it's strange how "resign" (i.e., to quit) and "re-sign" (i.e., to sign again, as in a contract) mean essentially opposite things.

                              I feel the same way about "cleave" When told I should cleave unto my wife, I'm thinking I'm supposed to go all Lizzie Borden on her. No thanks.

                                I also think that whoever came up with the word "subtle" was very clever.
