My wife told me I’m cute. Latter-day Saint. The foundation of my testimony rests solely on the dishonesty of our critics.

Be embraced, ye millions!
This kiss to all the world!
Brothers, above the starry canopy
There must a loving Father dwell.

Do you fall in worship, ye millions? World, do you know your Creator?
Seek Him above the starry canopy! Above the stars must He dwell.

- Schiller

@nicoraytruth @bi02247255 @AndrewGossage33 I don’t think so but I see where you’re coming from.

[Alex Watson @Quehijo11]

@sister_slay Yes but barring divine intervention or the possibility of hyper-lightspeed travel I don’t believe we will ever meet

@DChadwickAuthor @SandyofCthulhu I just recorded a work of music called Eisegesis that was written with basically this principle in mind

@Primary_Pianist What about disrespectful agreement?

[Alex Watson @Quehijo11]

@JasontheLayman @Primary_Pianist I’m still waiting for the part where we’re somehow Muslims?

[Alex Watson @Quehijo11]

@JonnybgG007 @Primary_Pianist @JasontheLayman What was objective about this?

He’s wrong about some important things, assumes his own worldview, and whenever there are places where there is ambiguity he seems to take the worst possible interpretation.

That’s how Richard Dawkins reads the Bible.

@PTSPentax I’m sorry

[Alex Watson @Quehijo11]

@ThisMomSaid What about the inverse? What about men’s spaces?

[Alex Watson @Quehijo11]

@CuriosityonX Because not only would our civilization need to exist near enough to an advanced alien civilization in space, we would also need to exist at the same time.

Tell me, why did the Babylonian empire never go to war with the English empire?

[Alex Watson @Quehijo11]

@CreedalHeretic @Mormonger @LizzieMarbach Sorry that was a typo. I meant *couln’t*

Sometimes I wish X would allow editing

[Alex Watson @Quehijo11]

@CreedalHeretic @Mormonger @LizzieMarbach That is an interesting thought. There is a way to see these two views as the same, as long as both sides agree God could violate goodness and remain God.

@EndWokeness @grok I might be living under a rock. What is going on here?

[Alex Watson @Quehijo11]

@RykerJackson97 @TomToepfer53 I’m confused. Does he want Jesus to be the focus or Moroni?

[Alex Watson @Quehijo11]

@ITalkOfChrist But I wonder how to do it while staying functional, balanced and emotionally centered? I don’t think we could bear the kind of empathy and concern Christ has.

I feel a similar struggle of balance with belong politically informed/engaged while keeping the Spirit.

@Dauntless502 @FiredUpCoug Actually of all this Monty Python lines, this one might make the most sense.

You, an alien: “…”
Deep space broadcast transmission: “…….I fart in your general direction!……”

@Virgini23166650 @ATIF_Podcast I don’t think there is enough certainty in enough doctrine to create a catechism for us, but I could be proven wrong.

I also may have incorrect assumptions about what’s in the Catholic Catechism. One of these days I’d like to read it.

[Alex Watson @Quehijo11]

@realDrTT The other day I got to listen to a Catholic man pray for me after the manner of his faith and then read from the Book of Mormon after my faith. I felt the spirit in both instances. It was a really good day.

[Alex Watson @Quehijo11]

@RodRuiz14 @j_divis Your unnecessary jab aside, this is exactly the kind of chart tracing Catholic line of authority I’ve been looking for! This is too low resolution, do you have a source for where you got this? I would be very interested.

[Alex Watson @Quehijo11]

@realDrTT As a Latter-day Saint, I don’t think it would make much sense to accept our baptisms, nor vice-a-versa. Our claims to authority are not compatible.

I’m not sure why people get offended by this, it just makes sense. No reason not to admire each other’s faiths.
