readstoomuch Posted November 27, 2014 Author Posted November 27, 2014 I did find readtoomuch which lacks an s that I use here. So Nevo didn't make it up. See above. Believe me if you want. Maybe I can change mine in some way to not be mistaken. I hate to start allOver trying to get a descent reputation. Ugh!
Tacenda Posted November 28, 2014 Posted November 28, 2014 It's a good thing Nevo said something so you could straighten him out, though I do understand his concern. Hopefully it's all squared away, because from what you've said on this board, you would only be defending the church not critiquing.
readstoomuch Posted November 28, 2014 Author Posted November 28, 2014 Yes, I am for the most part a defender. I am not sure I have really straightened it out. If someone reads both boards, they will be confused or at the very least think I am an angry postmormon.

You can get the mods to change your user name, and this will not zero out your reputation, I don't think.
Stargazer Posted November 28, 2014 Posted November 28, 2014 (edited) I wish I could relate to this better. Or maybe not. But anyway, every time doubts starts to creep into my head, my mind grabs it in a full nelson choke hold, followed up by a pile driver. Finally, after getting whupped most severely doubt crawls out again, this time due to being beaten badly rather than because of its initial stealthy slink. Having had too many experiences with the Spirit that I cannot explain away, I find myself in a situation where reality IS the gospel, and Jesus Christ is Lord. There's no room for doubt any longer, though I will say that I have not yet reached the point where I have faith no longer, but knowledge. Man, would THAT ever be intense. But I will ever be vigilant. Had a private conversation here with another poster whom I shall not name, a poster who has lost his testimony, and the upshot of it was, he thought his testimony was bulletproof at one time, too, but lost it anyway.

Guest Posted November 29, 2014 Posted November 29, 2014 Its a good thing that the church released the essays. For all the mileage that some ex mormon are getting from them right now in a couple of years this stuff will largely be a non issue.It is a good thing...telling the truth always is, not to mention I knew during the discussions I was taking in 1979. I am surprised that so many did not know. The subject is taught openly in Sunday School and Priesthood, with investigators looking on. I agree it is a good thing concerning the essays...just puzzled at response?
