TUESDAY

3:54 AM 
Last night I called Joseph Prince Ministries and gave them a Praise Report.

Tonight I had a dream where I had been missing for 4 years and when I came back, Rene, Dad, Colt, a resurrected Jo, and others all lived in a big building and I had to go around collecting my clothes from the gymnasium and around the building. Colt had been wearing my shirt since I disappeared. I had some crosses. I had married Maggie in the Spring of 2020-something and I called her and left her a message before handing the phone back to Rene.

Today I go see Dr. Wentz, and Taylor Brady will pick me up to go see her soon.


I need to unify and God needs to purify my mind, spirit and purpose.

1:00 PM
Today I saw Dr. Wentz and she prescribed the same meds as before, no change, after I was evaluated by her and the nurse. I'm at around 170 lbs, a healthy weight and have a healthy blood pressure.

Dr. Traci Wentz is retiring, meaning that on April 19, 2022, I will be seeing a new Psych Dr., possibly at the other building. I trusted Dr. Wentz. O God please let the new psych Dr. be a Believer who doesn't demand that I get the Eyetest like Dr. Reddy did. Amen. O God please do not let them send me back to Dr. Reddy. Amen.

As long as Taylor Brady is involved and we can finally get the ball rolling with BFMA, and as long as God is sovereign, I am confident that no matter what happens, I will be able to meet my goal eventually of financial independence, but I have to admit the sudden retirement of Dr Wentz MSN, PMHNP-Board Certified for no apparent reason,especially when she said she was "irreplaceable" and had "no plans for retirement, just to sit on the couch" is disturbing to me, and should be. I hope that whoever replaces Trustworthy Traci is her (or him) self also trustworthy. Amen.

Taylor Brady said Mary from BFMA finally got a hold of her by phone, apologized for the long delay and sent her the necessary paperwork.

Taylor got me pizza and Dr. Pepper from a Casey's store after the appointment. I thanked God for it before eating it, and thanked Taylor.

I encouraged Taylor to keep a Diary today, saying there was a lot of knowledge you had gained that she could share with the world.

Junk_bow kept at me all night long, giving me a very disturbing nightmare I barely escaped from. Not only is Junk_bow a demon and a shapeshifter, she/he/it is a dragon, a vampire and a dream demon.

Taylor and I talked about her past relationship history today, which I partly guessed by how she reacted to certain songs on the radio, which led me to bring up Maggie.
"There is one higher", I said. "Although no girl in my estimation compares to Maggie, no god in my estimation compares to God."

I told Taylor that I wasn't sure whether Maggie's eyes were brown or blue.

During our last appointment, I started showing Taylor Episode I The Phantom Menace and asked what she thought of it and she said it was boring and Star Wars was confusing to her and she hadn't had time to do any research about it, and that she wasn't interested in Star Wars.


 Today I told Taylor that I had showed Star Wars to her all out of order and if I were to show it to her in order and in context that it wouldn't seem confusing to her.


My next appointment with Taylor Brady is on Wednesday, March 2, 2022 AD, the day my Chrome Book is due if I cannot renew it. My appointment is here at my apartment @ 11:00 AM.

My next appointment with a new Psych Dr. is April 19 @ Noon.

5:21 PM CDT I made the final copy of my Script Star Wars Episode 12: Rise of The Jedi several minutes ago before I started supper and backed the whole up to a flash drive.

I will be editing Rose Tico into Star Wars Episodes 13-18. I will have to make her character progress and give her and her husband Finn children, and do something with them. The scripts are a little too short as they now stand, and could use some more scenes. I'm up for the challenge. That's what I will be doing most of today, and if I'm up to it and if there's time, will be typing much more of Star Wars Episode 17 for public view.

FRIDAY

I had a heart to heart with my heart, then a heart to heart with Jesus upon my bed and watched Lois Vogel-Sharp.

Aside from my entertainment, the people I talk to and the books I read, I need to limit myself to five gospel and motivation influencers on YouTube that speak into my life, NOT five of each.

Michael Hur
Lois Vogel-Sharp
Kat Kerr
Zig Zeiglar
Justen Faull

Only these indefinitely, unless God says otherwise. 
Get back into the Scriptures.
Keep asking The Holy Spirit to help me to grasp the simplicity and power of the Cross and the Gospel, and not to try to understand them intellectually, and how to call upon the Name of the LORD.

I was listening to so many people teach me so many lies that I didn't know the truth, which makes one free, not just sets. If you open a cage door, the bird doesn't want to leave the cage, though the door is wide open, but if you take the bird out and toss it into the air it is made free. That's what the truth does..I was trying to justify myself with performance, or correct belief, or struggle, or trying harder.

The five do not include education, instruction, family or political speeches, Scriptures or anything to do with the Restoration. These are all free. It is 5:03 AM, and Casey's has just opened, so I will go get an X-Tra Large Dr. Pepper.

5:40 AM CDT Earlier this morning I cleared my entire YouTube watch history and Started Over with it there, pruning it so it could bear more fruit, and looked up Samuel Goald and Joseph F. Smith Testimony concerning the plates given to Mauricio in Brazil, then put it on Justen Faull and Genesis and it started on the KJ passage concerning the Rainbow in the Noachide Covenant. I wept.

I went to Casey's and got myself a xtra lg dr pepper and a large slice of bacon breakfast pizza. Now Faull and Acts are playing. Acts is exciting. I am not paying attention to Faull because its lower an I cannot make out what it is saying from where I am at my dining area table drinking my pop and typing on the ChromeBook. The pizza was Delish! 

5:56 AM Actually, Autoplay went from Faull to History's Very Interesting program America Unearthed, where Archaologists are trying to piece the puzzles of History, side by side with the window I am now sitting cross-legged on my bed typing in and listening to Bible Radio on on my laptop.

Right now, The Jerusalem Conference is going on in Acts.

A couple nights before tonight, Christ himself baptized me in Dreamland, saying, that let all demons in hell know that he baptizes me, etc, and I was also confirmed.

This morning I was converted, fully. I finally heard Jesus' heart. I still need to Truly Call Upon The Name Of The LORD.

Words of Moroni 1:11-17
The Shroud of Turin, Ian Wilson, pp. vii-ix, Table of Contents

I made a YT Watch History Playlist, and am listening to the Pauline Epistles, starting in Romans, now in I Corinthians.

I still need to read 'Shroud of Turin' Introduction and Chapter One today and finish 'God's Secretaries' Chapter One and listen to Disc 10 of 'Catalyst: A Rogue One Story' today, which things I have all day to do.

An America Unearthed Video proving Jeremiah came to America with the Mulekites, an Egyptian Princess and an ark, but not the ark of the Covenant, as Book of Mormon scholars have at least partially concluded, was on, and now an Egyptian Treasure in the Grand Canyon America Unearthed video is on. The first one was about Obelisks and the Stars.

Part of a conversation between myself and SW Santa today:


Brent"study36"FinalWarning"KoivV — Today at 7:48 AM
So I hear you went ahead and got a Patreon (thank you, I got the playlist made now ) How do you like it? Would you reccomend it?

Star Wars Santa — Today at 8:12 AM
I'm still not much of a fan of Patreon, but I was talked into starting it.

Brent"study36"FinalWarning"KoivV — Today at 8:52 AM
by Meg!
[8:52 AM]

[8:53 AM]
well, hope it works out for you
[8:53 AM]
You dont have to worry about copyright claims
[8:53 AM]
on it
[8:54 AM]
I'm listening to Mozart, reading Shroud of Turin's introduction and watching maths videos
[8:54 AM]
its fun, i'm comfy on my loveseat

Brent"study36"FinalWarning"KoivV — Today at 9:16 AM
I'm also listening to the Pauline Epistles

Brent"study36"FinalWarning"KoivV — Today at 9:26 AM
I downloaded a free ebook on company culture
[9:26 AM]
It just popped up; I'm saving it to my flashdrive now
[9:30 AM]
Great! I can read it right on the ChromeBook I'm renting with the aid of my flashdrive!
[9:31 AM]
I am so getting my own ChromeBook! These things are so nifty and neat!
[9:32 AM]
And a SSB External Drive for my laptop

Earlier I got five of my dishes done. Now they are drying in my dish drainer.

Internet Writings, conversations and exerpts from lost journals, texts, etc.

Brent: What I admire about J.J.Abrams is that when he set out to make The Force Awakens, he didn't try to make Star Wars into LOST or Star Trek, but was completely true to the mythos and feel of a Star Wars movie, as grungy, humorous, lived-in and whimsical as anything from Episodes I-VI.-Monday, 6/14/2021 2:08:55 CDT



Brent: The reason that the whole of the last jedi was the empire pursuing one rebel fleet was simply because that in the Force Awakens which happened immediately before tlj, with no time passage at all between the two films, had just lost their entire seat of government and base of support to the starkiller base-hosnian prime system, and the last rebel fleet was all they had left, making tlj an incredible story of survival, with ultra high stakes.

I’m sorry, but if your best evidence that a resurrection occurred is “a bunch of people believed it,” that’s not good enough. There needs to be actual legitimate evidence in order to accept that claim as true. All you have are stories, and stories by themselves are not enough.


Lordban said

Ancient history in general suffers from not possibly escaping reliance on "stories", often written decades or a few centuries later. Without using such accounts, there would be enormous holes in our knowledge of history. And of course, there is often further uncertainty because the original texts did not make it through the millennia and what we have is a copy, which may or may not have been edited, and an additional difficulty comes in the form of ancient translations, for which it's also not possible to know for certain edition hasn't been made in some way. And the deliberate reporting of inaccurate facts is nowadays known to be as old as Ramses II.
So yes, in the end, for a large part of what we know of ancient history, we are never going to get past "a bunch of people believed it".
Sometimes, we even have to rely on "this person said it", because the scarcity of sources means we're probably never going to get corroboration.
For an example, the notion Phenicians had already knowledge of the Cape of Good Hope was initially based on a single, ca. 600BC account of how the sailors reported the position of the sun at the far end of an attempt to navigate around "Libya" ("Africa" was not used to name the continent back then). But because that account is consistent with what the sailors would have witnessed, and a forgery of the text's details would have required knowledge that the Earth is round - which was not known at the time of the writing of the account - we have reason enough to believe it is legitimate testimony and it is likely some Phenicians did manage to sail past the Cape of Good Hope.

But it's not physical evidence, and we probably aren't ever going to get evidence that it happened. Thus, in the end, why a decision has to be made whether to accept that claim as true despite the evidence at the time of discovery of this being literally one story. It's as good evidence as you are ever going to get.
To trace all the way back to religion, you aren't going to find much in the way of physical evidence either, even as to whether the religion started when it says it does. And even when you do find more recent physical evidence, dating it accurately is problematic.
To give an early medieval example, the Birmingham Quran manuscript, one of the oldest fragment of the Quran in existence, has been carbon-dated between 568AD and 645AD, while the Sanaa Palimpsest (for its lower-text part) has been carbon-dated between 578AD and 669AD. In both cases, the interval is given with an 95% confidence that the entire interval is the correct one. Both still cover decades before Muhammad's companions are supposed to have written in (610AD until 632AD) and, of course, long spans both before and after Hijra (622AD).
We therefore can't escape falling back on contemporary writings retelling when the Quran was first written, because the physical evidence simply isn't good enough and/or our means of dating it aren't accurate enough.
Long story short, often, in ancient history, "a bunch of people believed it" is as good evidence as you are going to get, whether it applies to religion or not. Which brings us back to a decision we have to make about ancient history in general: for most of what we know, it's up to you, as an individual, to decide whether you believe its accounts or not. Granted, it takes much less of a leap of faith to believe you know Caesar's last words ("Ista quidem vis est!", according to Suetonius) than to believe Jesus of Nazareth went walkabout after his death. But in either case, it is all but certain you are never going to get actual legitimate evidence. The account of what others believed is as good as you are going to get.

I never “chose” to not believe. And my mind and heart are not closed. Please stop being dishonest.
If you had evidence that your beliefs were true, you would have presented it already. Instead, all you’ve done is present excuses, weak arguments, and easily debunked claims. That’s not how you convince anyone.

The longer I have been an atheist, the more amazed I am that I ever believed Christian notions.

And all that did not convince you because you chose not to believe the evidence, closing your mind and heart when the evidence stared you right in the face and people conspire to cover up truth all the time just look at nazi germany its the same in america its the world system. You dont believe because you are the ones indoctrinated into unbelief and i am the one and the believers on here whose minds are truly free.


timmoishere: You haven't presented any evidence. (Actually, I had presented PLENTY of evidence and continued to do so but he refused to view it or read it because it was not "peer reviewed" by fellow atheists and agnostics-BLS) You keep making this claim without backing it up.
And there's no indoctrination (lie-BLS), we've actively asked for this alleged reputable archaeological evidence exists (which I gave the sources, or references to where they could be found, yet he still claimed I hadn't-BLS), but you've never provided any evidence that you claimed existed. You have, however, brought up things like the the shoud of Turin, which does have scientific evidence about its origin, which places it to be from the middle ages, several hundred years younger than it is supposed to be (actually untrue, See The Shroud of Turin by Ian Wilson-BLS).
Your mind isn't 'free', as you seem unable to apply a consistent approach to assess new information. You have an approach to preserve the information that you have chosen as true (No, that I KNOW is true, rejecting what I KNOW is false-BLS (And saying I don't know if I don't know, and finding out either from books, Scriptures, the Internet, others or God so I'm not ignorant if I  do not know (and evaluating what they (except Scriptures or God) tell me by Scriptures and what I know and by spiritual discernment, unbiased confirmation, and revelation-BLS), here a little, there a little-BLS), and reject information you have chosen as not true.


study3600 said: ↑

False religion and atheism is the opiate of the masses (ok i'll include agnosticism too, wouldnt want to leave you out) and True Religion is Liberty and true independent thought. Your only as free as your mind is. Its hard to rein in or control one whose mind is free. The deepest dankest prison to him becomes heaven. And a cage is a cage to everyone no matter how big a cage it is.

 Lowbacca:  Your mind isn't free, and there is zero that you have provided that could be used to separate out the 'true religions' from the 'false religions', so from all available evidence, you are entirely incapable of determining what is true using your methods since they are just about reinforcing your conclusions.

Lowbacca: While we have entertained the idea that you might be able to present evidence, you have been unable to consider how you could present the evidence you claimed existed. That alone highlights who is exhibiting a free mind and who isn't.
(Similarly, I know people who are religious who can view that as a faith-based decision and see why those expecting a sort of evidence do not reach the same conclusions, but that is different from what you are doing, claiming that there is clear evidence, then failing to provide it. repeatedly. and shifting the discussion to as many things as you can think of because every one of your claims is extremely threadbare and doesn't have the solid evidence you claim exists)

Brent: 3. Uh, timmoishere, read Lordban's post. We choose what evidence to and not to be convinced by. If we choose not to believe true evidence that is called closing your mind. If you choose not to believe what your heart is telling you is the truth that is called closing one's heart.
No, no I protect the beliefs in have which are true and reject all false evidence while at the same time assimilating all new knowledge and information that is true. This is called cognitive resonance. Most of you protect your false beliefs unbelief doubt incredulity and biases and false traditions as well as what you believe and know to be true, and shut out all evidence and information to the contrary even if it is true information and evidence. This is called cognitive dissonance. The Bahir man (Jedi Merkurian, the man of the Baha'i faith-B.L.S.K.)(The Bahir is a book of the Kabbalah, NOT the Baha'i faith) has a bias that I know God is a ludicrous concept so anyone who proves or relates to them that you can know God or that I know God or that God is even remotely knowable because his ba'hai (Baha'i) texts tell him God is unknowable then his cognitive dissonance protecting the bias and tradition he learned studying the Bahir (Baha'i texts) and practicing his ba'hai (Baha'i) faith prevents him from believing anyone who claims they know God. This is the case with all belief claims and knowledge and with all people in this world.

There are two ways to be deceived: One is to believe what is not true and the other is to refuse to believe what is true - Soren Kierkegaard



Brent:I like the Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker the best, depending on which one I'm viewing at the time. I like Revenge of the Sith more than The Force Awakens and TFA more than RoTJ, RoTJ more than TESB TESB more than Clones, CLONES more than ANH and ANH more than TPM. And I love TPM.
For less complication, I'm only ranking the 9 films of the Skywalker Saga.
1 or 2 I like the Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker the best, depending on which one I'm viewing at the time. Love Ben's character, seeing him and Rey conflicted, Ben Redeemed, water symbology, loved stylistically stunning visuals, horseback riding, seafaring, crystal foxes, nuns and porgs, green milk, D.J, Casino Royale, Hyperspace Skipping, Ben/Hux rivalry, Ren slamming a general into the ceiling, Snoke/Ben/Rey/Praetorian Guard Throneroom Fight, Just about everything Poe did and said in those two films, Finn facing off with Phasma, Palpatine attempting self sacrifice for his nefarious ends, New Force Abilities shown not just implied like Jedi Healing and Connection and object grabbing from a distance, and Projection of your essence from a distant planet to make someone think your there, All Walkers firing on Luke, Han visiting Ben, Luke raising the X-Wing, Yoda visiting Luke, and so much more. And Lando. And Rose. Finn's heroism willingness to sacrifice his life for the resistance cause.
3 Revenge of The Sith. What don't I like about this film? Spectacular opening space battle, the most fast and furious lightsaber battle of the franchise at the end between anakin and obi-wan, we get to see Anakin's transition to Vader, Tragedy done so well, General Grievous is just cool, can't get enough of the 'its treason then ' spin and take three Jedi Masters out in 5 seconds scene, Order 66 done so well and explains so much, Padme buried with Japor Snippet, and so much more.
4 The Force Awakens. Right from the amazingly cool opening scene there is SO much to like about this film! Chewie We're home, It's true all of it the Force the Jedi everything scene, BB-8 is so neat, Ren such a good villain, torch passes to new generation, flamethrower, Poe (need I say more?) Rey and Finn's friendship, Han and Leia didn't "just live happily ever after" like they did in the EU, and that Resistance theme music! Wow! Plus everything feels as grungy and lived in as it does in the PT and OT.
5 Return of the Jedi. My favorite of the OT. Love Vader's Redemption, Emporer's first death, "Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational battlestation. You may fire at will commander" "That blast came from the death star", "our cruisers cant repel firepower of that magnitude", etc Jabba the Hutt's max rebo band Special Edition Doo Mee Wang" music gets me every time, love Jabba, Jabba's death so satisfying, love Ewok/ Empire asymmetrical warfare, etc, etc, etc
6 The Empire Strikes Back. The Movie that got me back being interested in Star Wars again, love the cliffhanger ending, Boba Fett, Lobot, Lando, Cloud City, Yoda the MAN, Force training on Dagobah, finding lost Luke in the snow, the Battle of Hoth, Han/Leia romance, C-3PO is the funniest he ever is in any movie in this one, (with the exception of maybe the rise of skywalker (bobba frick is my oldest friend ROTFL!)
7.I loved Attack of the Clones so much I saw it three times at the movies and watch it twice in a row one day when I owned it on VHS.
I love nearly EVERYTHING about Clones from the static clean hallways of the Kaminoans to Dex to the beautiful Jedi Archives and Jocosta Nu's refusal to believe the archives could possibly be missing any records, to the arena scene, to Jango fett's scenes, to Mace and Obi-Wan fighting back to back, to Anakin's and Padme's forbidden romance, to Yoda and Dooku's duel, to Palpatine's Machiavellian political maneuverings, one of the things i like about TPM as well.
8. A New Hope. A hands down classic, vI love the cantina scene, Han Solo, The Death Star run and trash compactor scene, Obi-Wan in his golden years, Luke starting his heroes journey as a whiny farmboy, , the Battle of Yavin 4, the beauty of Yavin 4, Princess Leia a strong female character, the droids Artoo and Threepio, and just about everything else about the film.
9.I love TPM. I love Jar Jar Binks. I love how stunning the TPM visuals are, love Duel of the Fates Music and battle of Naboo, especially the Maul/Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan duel, love TPM opening scenes as some of the best opening scenes in the franchise, love PODRACING, BABY! Love origin story of Anakin, love Padme's subterfuge.
So there you have it, my ranking. I love them all. But thats the order in which I have come to currently like them.

Paula Miller: Tue 11:01 PM



Great ok now what makes you understand we are in tribulations?


Brent Sohlden Koivopolo V: All the signs. If you want ill enumerate the ones I and many others are aware of including everyone in the church I am about to join and many protestants baptists evangelicals Utah Mormons pentecostal and many other sects.





Paula: Yeah ok



Brent: 1 Obama has showed just about every biblical sign that he is the Beast

2 ww1 was the first trumpet

3 ww2 the second

4 chernobyl the 4

5 still being fulfilled but partially fulfilled during gulf War but the locusts thr actual ones will come (horseflies-BLS)
6 partially fulfilled with ISIS

Sorry chernobyl the 3, time speeding up with no and Berlin wall 4. Gulf War 5, is is 6

Isis 6

8 the (eyetest catalyst-BLS) is another sign of the trib





Paula:I believe what George Njeim and his book wrote



Brent: 9 the (eyetest-BLS) is a form of the mark

10 earthquakes in divers places





Paula: That’s in Matthew 24



Brent: Even more intensified than anything we have before seen





Paula: Like I said I believe George Njeim



Brent: Tornadoes on the equator



Brent: It is as it was in the days of Noah, giants, hybrids, etc



Brent: Then go ahead and believe it all came to pass in the dark ages like most of the RLDS and live with your eyes shut



Brent: Even the church fathers and Joseph Smith Jr taught the beast is a man not a kingdom or system





Paula: Njeim doesn’t believe that

Anything you here from LDS theology is open for interpretation



Brent: You told me several years ago that he does





Paula: Where did you get that JSJR taught that ?



Brent: And I told you the LDS is only one of the many many Christian sects who know we are in the tribulation



Brent: I read it in his sermons myself



Brent: And I also read it in the church fathers of the first and second century





Paula: I didn’t



Paula: We are not in tribulation



Brent: Ok if we're not in the tribulation then we'll never be. It will always be a future or past event

After all prophecy never talks about the present just the future and the past





Paula: I’m going to bed Goodnight read your doctrine & covenants







Brent: I did



Paula: I read and believe more of it than you do

Good night



Paula: Wed 8:00 AM



You are a very judgmental person Brent



Paula: Wed 8:20 AM



The Book of Revelation is read starting with the early Christians chronologically so then it’s through the Dark Ages, the Medieval Times on to the eternity,

The Angel came at the conclusion of the period of the Apostasy 1260 years or the 42 months mentioned in the 12th and 13th chapters. The vision that was given to Nephi was given in a systematic chronological order.



Brent: Wed 10:27 AM

I know that Paula and you mistake tough love with judgmematllism

It also talks about what is going on now in addition to all that

There is the law of double and even triple reference in biblical interpretation Paula

I'm going to Walmart to get some soda dr pepper





Paula: You are judging RLDS priesthood that is not tough love

Brother Njeim understood the type and shadow reference of the Bible however he used the Fullness of the Gospel when studying Revelation. I choose to believe Brother Njeim.



Brent: Wed 4:14 PM

Over Joseph Smith himself? God is the one judging the traditionalist priesthood I'm just telling you the truth

When men preach opinion and their traditions and put that for the word of God the bom calls that priest craft dear





Paula: Um they are not



Brent: They are if they contradict the church fathers and Joseph smith





Paula: You definitely do have it correct but keep working on it



Brent: Thats two witnesses





Paula: They are not

I believe the course Njeim took



Brent: God taught Joseph Smith that the beast was a man not a kingdom or a system and he preached it giving a very good illustration and the fathers specifically said that the antichrist would be a jew and rule the word. A kingdom or a system cannot be a jew



Brent: Plus I have a third witness my cousin Nephi's testimony which was a complete chiasm about his destiny to fight the armies of the world ruler the man the antichrist

In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established

You only need two. I have three





Paula: What in tarnation are you talking about? Pilgrim?

How do you know that God taught Joseph Smith Jr that?



Brent: Because I read his sermon


Paula:Why do you keep assuming I know nothing?

 Where



Brent: I know you have a lot of knowledge but you are wrong about this because three credible witnesses Trump njeim



Brent: It is writted





Paula: Where did you read JSJR sermon?



Brent: Look for it yourself. They took the website down so you'll have to read it in Joseph's insufferably sloppy handscrawl in the Joseph Smith papers because they refuse to publish a plain text version of it the only one they had published they took down but I had it printed out but I lost it because Joy convinced me I needed to get rid of js writing s because she mistakenly believed God told her I worshipped Joseph Smith. I regret giving away his sermons letters and journals and now she want me to help her find it and I can't quote it anymore O Lord what a terrible burden is knowledge!





Paula: Who took the web site down?



Brent: The mormons

They like to suppress knowledge

And it was a credible source those were Joseph's actual words

And even without them we still have the church fathers and nephis testimony we still have two witnesses

Go ahead and stay ignorant and believe everything that comes from the Mormons is no good because I know that's what I am outgoing you to say





Paula: Oh then I for sure don’t sgree



Brent: We still have two witnesses

Without josephs



Paula: Njeim interpreted the Bible without precedents of Smith or the fathers



Brent: He went before the lord



Brent: Ran



Brent: Joy always says went



Brent: She means ran



Brent: He interpreted based on rlds tradition rather than what has gone before for precedent



Brent: Sorry to burst your little bubble





Paula: Njeim was a great man and you are not bursting a bubble



Paula: I happen to agree with his review



Brent: There may have been a lot of truth in his writings but he was wrong in his assertion that the entire book of rev was fulfilled in the middle ages





Paula: No he interpreted based on the Book of Mormon



Brent: No he was not wrong



Brent: You are denying the truth





Paula: So what



Brent: Just like you always do





Paula: You are caught up in your own truth



Brent: Why do you idolize njeim





Paula: Brent I’m blocking you

That’s enough



Brent: If every verse in the Bible contradicted njeim you would still choose njeim


Brent: Ok timmoishere. What kind of evidence do you require? Belief comes before evidence. You believed the chair would hold you up before you sat in it and it did. you believed the stove was hot because your mother said so but you didnt know until you touched it.

All the operations of the human mind and body are the result of faith.

Me to Star Wars Santa today:


I should also get a Texas Instruments Scientific Calculator and a Digital Camcorder.

And a graphing compass and a protractor and a lot of graph paper

And a Guitar.

And a harp.

I'm beyond what I have the capacity to learn at this time in learning math its just numbers letters and symbols to me at this point.

I'm going to call Joy, find out if she's printed up my Utility Bill for tax info, see if she can give me allowance and then take that allowance, pay my 14.00 or so fine, then take the rest of my money, go to the bookstore and buy a good comprehensive math book that I can study. Tameeka Newell told me to study math books, and so did Mom after she had been in the afterlife, and God has led me to do maths and practice it my whole life and the IEP people held me back from advancement in it even though my Algebra teacher Mr. Lovejoy (God rest his soul) recommended me for Geometry, but the IEP people whom dad and I both knew were liars, forbid me to take that or world religion, saying I'd be intolerant, but they did not know me. At Joy's the first time I lived there, I learned math off an educational TV channel, in Michigan the first time I lived there, my Dad taught me how to solve basic circuit equations for electronics, and I watched a movie about a child mathemetician prodigy as a kid and I also watched another, musical one like that as an adult, "Like stars On Earth". I have always liked maths, and I have used the excuse "I like maths, I'm just not good at it" long ENOUGH! I checked some math books out of the library in michigan the second time I lived there but Buster my dog chewed them or it up, because I neglected it or them. He often would chew up things, especially if I neglected them.

I'm not baptized and confirmed yet, only in my dreams, but I hope I will be soon.

4:33 PM CDT Me to Star Wars Santa today:


Ok, I'm taking back ALL my library books save three and keeping out my Chrome Book. I paid my fine. Joy, Cecil and I had a talk. Joy says I'll figure it out. It was about what Jesus told me last night. I'm trying to understand the Gospel and the Cross intellectually instead of the simplicity of it and I was going overboard in reading books and finding too much knowledge without wisdom. I wasn't even READING my library books. They gave me a feeling of intellectual pride. Joy says I need to get self out of the way. After paying my fine I walked home from the library confident that I had not been sufficiently humble in my heart. O Lord forgive me of my pride! Amen. Pastor Pete may be giving me a ride up to the library to drop off most of those library books and then Colt and I can walk up to the bookstore which closes at 6PM so he can look around and I can buy a 4.50 or so dollar math book with the change from my fine. I prayed for the best math book that amount could buy (used books).

Some people believe that there's not just one truth; no one's right or wrong; that there are truths and falsehoods on both sides. That nothing is really true; that it's all from our own point of view; that there are no facts; only beliefs and opinion. This is all a lie. There is only one Absolute Truth, and all who follow the Truth follow Christ, for He Is the Spirit of Truth. There are, however, differences of perception, reality and perspective, and sometimes heroes on all sides of a human conflict, and there are many sides to truth, which is cubical, and two sides to every story. These two do NOT amount to the same thing. There is only One Truth and He is also Love, Life, Light and the Way, to paraphase some of the Scriptures. Truth is knowledge of things as they are, as they were and as they are to come and whatsoever is more or less than this comes of evil. All the world is lies and deception. Many are deceived by false information. We all need to pray daily for spiritual discernment, and to try the spirits, and to check things out by what the Word of God says, and what he reveals.




Star Wars Santa — Today at 4:33 PM
Can you not find something online that's free?
[4:35 PM]
Have you tried Khan Academy? I've used it. It's got practice exercises and fantastic teachers.

(SW Santa gave me a link to Khan University)

Brent: I'll have to take a look at that but God commanded me to study math books
[4:48 PM]
And I could occupy a lot of my time with Khan; it and Hillsdale would keep me out of trouble. Thanks

I got Mathematics: A Practical Odyssey Fifth Edition. The book dealer sold it to me for five bucks and a nickel: 796 pp+Guide to Using A Scientific Calculator, 6 other Appendices and Index and two Geometric designs in the inside back cover and flyleaf.

6:07 PM Perhaps Pastor Pete will take me to the library to drop off my books tomorrow.

Catalyst: A Rogue One Novel, James Luceno, Disc 10
The Force Awakens, Alan Dean Foster, the first 35 Minutes
The Testimony of Mark
The Beginning of The Testimony of Luke

I took a good shower. Last night, I brushed and flossed my teeth. It is 7:25 PM.

I tried joining Truth Social today, Trump's new Social Media platform, but for now it's only available in the Apple App Store for the iPhone. Soon it will be available on Google Play.

EVERYONE in that sentence refered to the wicked and then i distinguished the wicked from the innocents, however, I think you knew that.

You didn't distinguish wicked from innocent. You said everyone that was killed. Everyone means everyone, not some. In the same sense that if I said "Everyone that believes in god is a child molester" that would be rightly criticised, and wouldn't be 'fixed' if I said "well, by everyone, I just meant only the ones that molest children".

You really haven't even *started* answering questions. You post plenty of unrelated responses or make things up instead, but you haven't actually answered questions you've been asked. The whole ordeal has gone on this long specifically because you refuse to answer questions.

study3600 said: ↑

AND I know EXACTLY WHAT THE HUBBLE DEEP FIELD IS WHEN IT WAS DISCOVERED AND WHAT IT REPRESENTS, it is presumption on your part to make a false claim that I don't.

You don't know what it represents, given that you just told someone that is not believing in god that it would be a 'demonstration of god'. It isn't that. An objective look at it does not lead to any conclusion that there is a god, and that you think it does just highlights your lack of understanding of it. This seems to reflect your broader lack of understanding when it comes to science.

24. I’m ELCA Lutheran. @blackmyron has Martin Luther correctly pegged. The man was, among other things, an anti-Semitic ***hole. He only gets credit for putting forth the idea that nobody can pay to get into heaven and that nobody should have to wait for the priest to read the Bible to them. No Catholic now buys into what Luther was initially protesting.

The ELCA Lutheran church, however, recognizes that Jesus of Nazareth was a brown-skinned homeless guy who, in the words of the great Douglas Adams, got nailed to a tree for saying that maybe people should be nicer to each other. Also that the religious authorities of the time were full of **** and put ethnocentrism, profits and ritualism before actual humans. So it aligns with my beliefs pretty well.

3. Joseph Smith Jr only had a fifth or sixth grade education and never went to college but at his death at age 37 or 42 i think in 1844 he knew more than all the rest of the world because of the things God taught him. I make no such claim, but I may not be the king of grammar but i write what i write from the heart. I may not always put every participle and comma in the exact right place, sun]bect and verb all my agrrements, dot everyv i or cross every t and sometimes i do ramble but i speak what comes directly from my heart enhanced by all the knowledge i have obtained by testing it and finding it true and rejecting all i know to be false.

4. I just looked at the Wikipedia page for Heaven Is for Real. The co-author admitted they made some stuff up. And I could not find any credentials for the author other than he’s a pastor, which could mean anything depending on the denomination. He could have become a pastor by standing in front of a church and claiming he got called to preach.

One thing I like about ELCA Lutheran seminaries is the pastoral candidates are required to learn to read the New Testament in ancient Greek, and IIRC the Old Testament in Hebrew as well. You catch a lot that got lost in translation that way.

And ah, Joseph Smith…apparently what he “knew” is that men could marry several women at once but could not marry another man, nor could a woman marry several women at once. Also that trying to regulate the number of children you have is bad. I can live without what he “knew” and any “god” who taught him that.

Anakinfansince1983:

On Colton Burpo. He recently went on TV not only reaffirming his testimony but saying there were rumors and lies being got up saying he had denied his testimony and some of it was made up when it was not.

On Smith:
THere were three groups of conspirators satan raised up to try and pin polygamy on Joseph Smith Jr: Brigham Young, who tried to kill his son after helping Albert Pike kill Smith, also the author and publisher of the Nauvoo Expositor William Law who accused hiim of things he didn't do, and Smith was outvoted in the council so he couldn't stop the destruction of the printing press which led to Smith arrest and trial on trumped up charges and assassination. Third a man named Cochrane and his sect accused him of it, as well as John C. Bennett. On her deathbed, Emma Smith proclaimed that she was the only wife Joseph had.
"I had not been married scarcely five minutes (forgive this man a little hyperbole, or maybe it wasn't, it doesnt ,matter) and made one proclamation of the Gospel, before it was reported that I had seven wives. . . .I am innocent of all these charges. . . .What a thing it is for a man to be accused of adultery, and having seven wives, when I can only find one. I am the the same man, and as innocent as I was fourteen years ago; and I can prove them all perjurers.-Sermon, Joseph Smith Jr, 1844, the year he died.

If you two (or three I lost count) read the Bible and the Bible thougherly Exigeted, then you DON'T understand it at all nor any of the ways of the God who wrote it, or you all or both would not only be Believers but YOU would be the one accused of being a liar and a troll who speaks like the devil's servant and just trying to win Divine favor!

And if those blatantly FALSE accusations are not persecution, then I DON'T KNOW what IS!

Trying to control women’s bodies, trying to keep people who love each other from getting married, denying the humanity of trans people. All far more harmful than people arguing with you on the Internet, which is not “persecution.”

And God did not write the Bible. Humans did. The Old Testament was mostly oral tradition written down later. The New Testament was written by a variety of authors—Matthew, Luke, John, Paul and Peter being among them.

You may not have made anything up, but you are demanding that people take your word without proof and you still are not providing academic sources for your statements.

1. You do paint them all with one broad brush, because you claimed that all atheists know that god exists. That's a very broad brush that, arguably, doesn't apply to any of them, let alone to all of them.
2. there aren't theistic atheists, because that's a contradiction in terms (for someone so obsessed over cognitive dissonance, you seem very confused by actual contradictions),as theistic would mean someone that believes in gods, and atheist means someone that does not believe in any gods.


(and again, you still haven't been able to identify two beliefs I hold that are contradictory. Largely as you seem to not even be able to identify beliefs/thoughts I hold in general, let alone find contradictions within them)

They ask you what faith you were - I said "Catholic" because I was raised as such but, y'know, I wasn't - and then had a set spiel to create 'conflict' tailored with whatever belief system that you said you possessed. When I pushed back, then immediately would go "Say, that's a good point, maybe you should bring it up at the meeting. Come to the meeting and tell everyone what you told us!"
Now, I could've just gotten up and left. But I decided that no, they are going to leave, not me. I tried to get them to mention what religion they followed, but they coyly would just say they were "Christian" without any denomination, and attempts to get them to narrow it down failed. And then, inspiration struck. I realized what their goal was, and used it against them.
I agreed with anything they said.
They seemed excited at first, but when they insisted I come to their meeting - the goal was obviously to get people there by hook or by crook and then 'overwhelm' them with numbers - I refused, stating that "I already believe everything you do, why do I need to come?"
When they said "Well, you can worship with us", I responded, "I have my own church, thanks, no interest in worshipping in a different one. Besides, we believe the same thing, what does it matter?"
The two of them finally got up without a word and I went back to reading the paper.

That was rather clever of you.

I find that rage and coarse language gets rid of them much more quickly and easily.

Islam is NOTHING like Christianity! Nothing! It teaches the complete opposite of everything the Bible teaches, training its radicallized followers to be murderers, rapists, pedophiles, polygamist (And Mohammed, peace be upon him, was ALL these) and they BEHEAD CHRISTIANS and JEWS just for being CHRISTIANS and JEWS or make them submit and pay a jit'za tax or some such word. It's all right there in the Koran and the Hadith, the very traditions of Mohommed.

@anakinfansince1983 I am surprised that you, after reading , THIS^^^^ CAN SAY THISVVVVVVso I presume you just SKIMMED THIS ^^^^^
Muslims literally worship the same God that Christians do, as do Jewish people. And you have not read the Quran.

And BTW, I studied and studied the Qu'ran for hours.

I swear, God, these people think I know nothing.

I certainly did read that, and I will ban you if you generalize Muslims that way again.

10. I wanted to beat them at their own game, for once.

Honestly, I could've just got up and left as well. But I was initially amused by their attempts to show how "Catholicism" was terrible and wrong to someone that wasn't Catholic. (Did you know that that nowhere in the Bible is there a reference to a "Pope"?)

13. @timmoishere As I before stated plainly, I don't want you guys to bow down to any belief of mine, just to think. And if you say you do think, then to think more, and if you say you think more, then to think ouside the box and not put God or no god or gods in one, and if you don't choose to think about my words, then that's ok. That's your choice. God gave you all freedom to choose what you believe. But no belief or lack thereof is without consequence. But whether or not you choose to believe this is no skin off my back. Conversion if it takes place at all takes one man or women or group of men and women or women or men (not debating that lib stuff Anakinfansince1983, politics is explosive like dynamite) to sow the seed, either he she or them or someone else that comes along later to water, but neither they nor I can control what fruit or results comes from that later down the line. My words may only serve to harden some more, and soften others at the same time. The same sun that melts ice hardens clay. I am not in charge of your conversion or lack thereof. I just try to sow seed thoughts. Atheists oft call them mindworms but believers call true mindworms the lies of satan, and I speak the truth of God. And that was addresed to all on the forum, not just to timmoishere, though the first part was, just thought i'd spell that out for you so you don't come back at me later and accuse me of directing all those words at only timmoishere.

@rogue1-and-a-half an open secret. The cheif aim of the humorous versions is to show what the Star Wars charaters would be like if they were all seriously flawed humans and not exemplars of perfect humanity like gods, which generates hilairity and keeps one in stitches so to speak all the way through the script parodies, as well as all kinds of other sight gags, plot twists and other types of jokes abound in abundance (that was a Hebrew poetic device called the cognate accusitive like dreamed a dream or saw a vision, not a grammatical eror) and I make no apologies for the drug references and sometimes rather crude sex u al humor throughout. This is real life we deal with. So deal. Plus there are plenty of genuine clean-minded laughs all throughout, and a joke per person's tastes it seems, whether you are atheist, Believer, satanist, Ba'hai, it's just plain funny, sure to tickle anyone's funnybone for any occasion in which you or anyone has enough downtime to read through them.

No idea what you mean by mindworm (I don't recall ever hearing that term), but that's exactly what an agent of Satan woud say. And an agent of Satan would have the same level or proof that you have, too.


And you say you want people to think, but then as soon as people started thinking things you didn't like, you got quite irate. You're not behaving as someone who wants people to think would behave, you're behaving as someone who wants people to agree with them would. Someone who wants people to think for themselves would appreciate people questioning what evidence is being alluded to if it hasn't been presented, not get hostile about it.

You go right ahead and keep telling yourself that my nonbelief will have some sort of consequence for me. Keep on believing that until the day you (or I) die if you like. It won’t make one bit of difference. You can threaten me with every hell you can imagine, and I still won’t believe, because I don’t respond to threats. I need evidence to believe, evidence which you are either unable or unwilling to provide. At this point, there’s no practical distinction between the two.

21. I have never believed in any god, and I have never prayed to one. That’s not the result of a hardened heart. Even as a small child, I didn’t believe. I never believed in Santa Claus, either, I knew it was simply my family that was providing me with presents (lol they didn’t hide it all that well). I knew god was a similar fiction.

I had even less exposure to religion than Ken’s kids. I’ve never been inside a church, never been exposed to a religious sermon that I can remember. I don’t even know what Passover is. I just looked it up to see, as I’ve looked it up a hundred times before, and I’m sure I’ll have forgotten within the week, because I’m just not interested in remembering.

To say that there are no atheists is just ignorance of so many people in this world. It’s a lack of exposure to people like me, not to mention many millions of Buddhists who don’t believe in a creator god, obviously don’t pray to one, and don’t seek to be saved by one or believe that it is possible to be saved by one. Not only are they atheists, but they come from an ancient culture of atheists, so they lack that ingrained belief in a god that can result from growing up in a culture/society that is largely made up of theists.

Let's turn this hot debate into a pleasant conversation. I said it at least three times before and I think someone or ones also did. Debate is both fruitless and pointless. It gets no one anywhere. I can't convince you of squat. You can't convince me of squat, nor are you trying to , nor would you gain anything if you did. But we can learn from eachother. You all come from different educational/job/life, etc backgrounds. A wise woman or man (I forgot where I heard this, maybe I read it somewhere, that everyone has something to teach and everyone has something to learn. I can learn just as much from an atheist as I can from a Believer in certain cases. Or an agnostic, or Ba'hai, or satanist (I once learned a ton from one satanist internet acquaintance and one satanist friend) I find that I';m the only Believer on this thread who comes on here like I'm all that and a bag of chips (and trust me, I'm not) and tries to convince everyone of the things I have learned in my experience, and you're right, sometimes I don't listen well. So let's try to learn from eachother all of us, setting aside our belief or lack of belief in any gods.

Hey, Jedi Merkurian: Side note: Your sig is dead on.

BTW, I'm curious about something you said earlier and I realize I may be taking you completely out of context, but it seemed to me like you said that the Bah'ai have no real religious texts yet you keep quoting what I think are Ba'hai religious texts plus the very accurate quote in your sig. Could you, please enlighten me on what you meant by that statement if me and @rogue1-and-a-half understood you correctly, or not, so we can understand, because we were both a little confused on that point.

And if you already answered Rogue, please refer me to the page on which you answerd him because there's a lot of pages.

2. I'm having trouble finding links between Richard Dawkins and the term 'mindworm', which doesn't preclude them from existing, but certainly suggests they aren't prominent, at least.
3. Atheism isn't a belief, it's a lack of a belief. So comments about 'atheistic belief' in the context of Dawkins is missing the point still.

4. Pretty sure I've already posted this in this thread, but as you can see from the picture, I was essentially raised Catholic. My parents are atheists, but my grandmother insisted I learn about religion. So, I did all of it, over the years, and was confirmed. By that time, I decided I was finished. My grandmother was fine with my decision. I think she was just glad I finished that process.

I haven't found a religion that does it for me, and there's a chance I wont, which I am okay with. I am perfectly content with the state of my soul, the way it is.

If you end up killing me in a voodoo ritual and raping my corpse, please at least keep my pickled head in a jar as a memento.

5. Well, that's your right and there isn't a god anywhere who can take away your Divine right to be content with the state of your soul. I was raised essentially Community of Christ but converted to the RLDS by baptism and Confimation at age 22.

Well, 2003 is when my conversion began. I wasn't baptized and confirmed until 2005. I didn't even become a True Believer until October of 2019.

Which probably explains my spiritual immaturaty and whininess and need to be right all the time, which is not a need at all but basically pride. This thread, I have to say, really shaped me and changed my heart, made me examine my own pushiness. It's safe to say I was converted by atheists, agnostics and some True Believers with hearts of Gold. So thank you all. My own pushiness often gets me in so much trouble. People are turned off, driven away, which you guys endeavored to show me how rude and cold and pushy and ram-it-down-your-throat-dity I was being. I apologize for my pride, but recall none of the truths I know, but I could have chosen not to try to convince you all that I was right and you were wrong because I was probably wrong about one or two things or more back then, after all "In the multitude of words, there wanteth not sin" and I obviously sinned when I was complaining about the rules but some of my other sins were probably way more subtle. And just so you know, most of you nonbelievers have hearts of gold too. Probably everyone on this board. Everyone has some good in them.

You're wrong if you're calling it a belief when you are discussing it and we don't hear it, also, then. That's a point you seem to not be taking in even though it's been pointed out several times. There is a critical difference, in terms of the logical construction behind them, between "belief that there are no gods" and "lack of a belief in gods". In practice they function the same way, but the two are not interchangable.

So it is, very simply, wrong to say that I "believe that there are no gods". You aren't listening to that.

1. Serious questions:

If heaven exists and people in heaven can eat food and drink does that mean they have to go to the bathroom and if so does that mean there's plumbing in heaven or can heaven folks go to the bathroom anywhere they want without consequence?

Do people have to wash their hands after peeing and dumping in heaven? If so, why?

Again is there a law in heaven about taking a wiz in public? This could be important.

Can the plumbing get clogged in heaven?

Are there plungers in heaven?

Can I call a plumber in heaven or will the clog be magically fixed? How long would I have to wait around for a plumber to show up in heaven? Do I have to wait around or will the plumber let him or herself in? If we're in heaven I don't have to worry about the plumber stealing any of my stuff and i won't have to talk them about the bill so why would I need to be there when they're fixing the clog? Who are these plumbers? Who would want to be a plumber in the afterlife?

If the clog is magically fixed why not make it so people magically don't have to poop or pee?

If people don't have to poop or pee in heaven will that do a psychological number on them?

Isn't it a relief taking a big dump after a big meal or taking a massive wiz after a lot of drinking? Wouldn't people want to experience that kind of relief and satisfaction in heaven?

If there's plumbing in heaven where does all the waste empty out to and who is maintaining the waste removal?

Does all the waste magically disappear once it's flushed?

Do bathrooms in heaven get smelly and if so do people us air fresheners?

Do people light a candle after going to the bathroom in heaven?

Where does toilet paper come from in heaven and is it all White Cloud?

Is the toilet paper divinely supplied or do souls in heaven have to shop for toilet paper or do they just think "I need toilet paper" and poof! it appears?

Is there ever a line for the bathroom in heaven or do restaurants in heaven have individual bathrooms for everybody in the restaurant so nobody has to wait?

Is the toilet seat aways magically up or magically down when one enters the bathroom depending on who's using it because that would be pretty cool!

2. Based upon my draw of experience, toilets exist in telestial glory and so do porno theaters because people are still filthy there, still in need of repentance. Not sure about plumbing. As they progress to Terrrestrial, the Glory of the Moon, toilets disappear but people still live in unbelief, still in need of progression. If they read the right books and ask the right questions, as they rise to the first level of celestial glory everytone there believes in the full gospel, but can still progress further to the third level of celestial, or the glory of the sun (as the sun is typical of it comparing sun to moon to stars (telestial). There is no falling from grace anymore from Level three to all the way up and up and up to all the endless glories and realms beyond. Like in the game Sorry, the first two levels of Celestial, and all of telestial and terestial are the safety zone. It only takes one backwards four or backwards one to be on the board again, in danger. The Third Level of Celestial and beyond is Home and Safe, like home plate in baseball.

And in answer to your what feels good question, some beautiful but nonsex u al feelings in the heavens are better than sex or urination or defecation, especially between marrieds.

Source material: Personal experience of visiting the heavens, Return From Tomorrow by George Ritchie, RLDS and LDS Section 76, The Sermons of Joseph Smith, The Joseph Smith Papers Project, though I got it from the now taken down site Woodland Institute and a section solely in the LDS Doctrine and Covenants.

If you end up killing me in a voodoo ritual and raping my corpse, please at least keep my pickled head in a jar as a memento.

You, Rogue1-and-a-half and Rylo Ken like this.

25. Their interpretation of what the bible teaches about modesty and shamefacedness. IMO, they tend to take it to the extreme.

As my Barber, a Conservative Trump supporter, cut my hair, I said, Putin is evil. He agreed.

A man before the CPAC speech of Trump's today in the LIVE CHAT, whom I will name, said: Jackie Haigh said:
​Putin thought he had done enough to divide America and divide Europe. Bigly mistake.

O Lord, please help Dad to see the light. Amen.

Answered Prayers:


*Yesterday I prayed specifically for money for snacks, money for my math book and money to pay my library fine and money for my haircut.
It took me two days and God gave me all this through my payee in addition to money for a good sit down meal at a dine in restaurant and the assurance I would soon get my SSB external drive, and groceries, and assurance I'd get more groceries not to mention stock up on water for my house and get Community Service League food help. God did above and beyond what I asked or thought, and Monday I may finally get my taxes done, which Paul and Jesus commanded us so to do.


*I prayed for a dream in which I was married to Maggie after waking up from a dream where she and I were mean to each other, and on that same night I had another dream where we had been married for a while.

MONDAY

4:36 PM I finally got my taxes done at the tax place.  Now all that needs to happen is that they need to be processed and Joy needs to pay the 50.00 fee, then I'll get the blessing-the tax return.  It should really help me this year.

Black House Disc 10-12
Genesis 2
Words of Moroni 1:20-23

Yesterday I read Genesis 1.

  By convenience, both I, Colt and Rick happened to stay home from Pastor Pete's church Sunday.  This alarmed me so much that I questioned Pastor Pete tonight, late, over the phone and he said that someone unfamiliar had arrived late and left early.  He was midddle-aged-gray hair, not tall, and wore no sunglasses.  The odd thing was that I was prompted to ask Pete if anyone new had come in that Sunday and it just so happened that someone had.

I am visiting Rick.  He gave me a brand-new legal pad to write in.
