Sky Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 (edited) Here’s some more that I thought of (in no particular order): We really have a lot of them - maybe somebody should publish a Mormon dictionary for new converts!

DispensatorMysteriorum Posted November 10, 2011 Author Posted November 10, 2011 The term Holy Spirit is used in the Book of Mormon, too. If there are two possible terms we can use, why not use the one that makes us sound less weird?Exactly. I agree 100%. Not sure what is so complicated about that to people. The term "wot ye not" is also scriptural. Should I start saying that instead of "Do you understand" ?
altersteve Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 (edited) I prefer the definition of "gospel" that is attributed to Jesus in the Book of Mormon: "[T]his is my gospel which I have given unto you--that I came into the world to do the will of my Father, because my Father sent me" 3 Nephi 27:13. Another good Mormon definition of "gospel" is D&C 76:40-42: "And this is the gospel, the glad tidings, which the voice out of the heavens bore record unto us--that he came into the world, even Jesus, to be crucified for the world, and to bear the sins of the world, and to sanctify the world, and to cleanse it from all unrighteousness; that through him all might be saved whom the Father had put into his power and made by him."Or the plan of happiness, in other words.That Jesus came to save us is the "good news." What we do in response to the good news is, in my view, not the gospel itself. The article of faith says that the gospel is associated with "principles and ordinances," but I don't think those principles and ordinances are, themselves, the "good news."I don't think so either. I think the plan of happiness is excellent news.The gospel, to me, is the work and the glory of God, to bring to pass man's immortality and eternal life; i.e., happiness. That sums up everything for me. Edited November 11, 2011 by altersteve
LeSellers Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 The term "wot ye not" is also scriptural. Should I start saying that instead of "Do you understand" ?Sorry, "wot ye not" is not "do you understand", it's "did you not know".Lehi
jo1952 Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 It's funny when people are pedantic and wrong at the same time. Hahaha.....love it!
DispensatorMysteriorum Posted November 13, 2011 Author Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) Sorry, "wot ye not" is not "do you understand", it's "did you not know".LehiThanks for making the point even clearer. EDIT: Wouldn't it be "Do you not know" and not "did you not know?" "Wot" is not the preterit, but the present tense. Anyway, the point is made the same anyway--just because something is "scriptural" doesn't mean it's the preferable choice for conveying meaning. Edited November 13, 2011 by DispensatorMysteriorum
Stargazer Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) "Fry sauce."I know it's a Utah (not just LDS) thing, but I jokingly asked a cashier at a fast food restaurant in California if they had any fry sauce when I was there last weekend. The look they gave me was priceless.Like the look I'm giving you now? What the bleeding heck is "fry sauce"?Edited to add: Nevermind. Calmoriah filled me in already. Sounds disgusting. Although here in Olympia Washington we have a local indy fast food outlet called "Big Tom's" that offers something vaguely similar that is called "Goop". I say vague similar because it is based more on mustard than ketchup I think. They won't tell me what goes in it when I ask. Edited November 13, 2011 by Stargazer

Does anyone have a recipe???Thanks!!joCombining Miracle Whip or Mayonaise with Ketchup. Usually equal amounts. Once mixed, you dip fries or tater tots in it and you've made fry sauce.
Calm Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 You can substitute thousand island dressing for ketchup also....
jo1952 Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 Thanks! The thousand island and mayo combination sounds pretty good. Rats!!!!!jo

KevinG Posted November 19, 2011 Posted November 19, 2011 Bah! This is what you should be dipping your food in... don't cheat yourself on the Brown sugar or Molasses. I used about 150% of the amounts below in my last sweet batch. If you want it hot substitute chipotle powder for the mild chile powder.Daddy G’s Sweet BBQ Sauce2 cup apple cider vinegar2 cup ketchup1cup chili sauce1 cup water1/4 cup finely chopped onion8 tablespoons minced garlic4 tablespoons butter2 tablespoons liquid smoke¼ cup molasses8 tablespoons prepared mustard¼ cup yellow mustard1 cup brown sugar4 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce2 tablespoon lemon juice2 tablespoon paprika2 tablespoon mild chili powder2 tablespoon cinnamon2 teaspoons dried oregano2 teaspoons dried thyme2 teaspoon salt2 teaspoon black pepper2 teaspoon cayenne2 teaspoon celery seed2 teaspoon powdered cloves2 teaspoon whatever you think sounds good at the timeCorn starch to thicken (optional - and for petes sake mix it with cold water first)
Calm Posted November 19, 2011 Posted November 19, 2011 IOW, open your cabinets and your refrigerator and throw anything handy into it. 1
KevinG Posted November 19, 2011 Posted November 19, 2011 That recipe is secret (not sacred) by the way. Don't go posting it on a public discussion board or anything like that. If you do sell it commercially send me 5% gross in royalties and we'll call it even.
KevinG Posted November 19, 2011 Posted November 19, 2011 (edited) IOW, open your cabinets and your refrigerator and throw anything handy into it.We have a winner! That second to last ingredient is important. If you do it right you will be tempted to eat your finger when you use it to test the sauce. Edited November 19, 2011 by DaddyG
ged1650 Posted November 20, 2011 Posted November 20, 2011 Proper BBQ is based on the rub, not the sauce. 5% won't net you very much.My wife reads bios of any dead church guy you can name so she tends to speak with the same syntax as men who have been dead for at least 50 years.Why do we call each other brother all the time? I never referred to my sibs as "Brother" or "Sister". Why do I have to do It at Church? I don't "rub shoulders" with anyone nor do I know how.

ERayR Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 Gotta be mayonnaise. It's nasty with Miracle Whip. Ack!As I said above its better with Ranch and Ketchup.
Scott Lloyd Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 (edited) You can substitute thousand island dressing for ketchup also....Thousand Island is mainly ketchup and mayo. So substituting thousand Island would just make it fry sauce with a higher concentration of mayo. Edited November 23, 2011 by Scott Lloyd
Scott Lloyd Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 As I said above its better with Ranch and Ketchup.I really like Ranch. And I even occasionally eat it on hamburgers and hot dogs.I'll have to try this.
seriously honestly Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 I really like Ranch. And I even occasionally eat it on hamburgers and hot dogs.I'll have to try this. Have you ever just used ranch to dip your fries in?
