@BasedMikeLee @ryanswalters73 I read it with an open heart, prayed about it sincerely and it's exactly why I left. So here's the honest answer to "what do you have to lose": For some of us that question isn't rhetorical. It's a receipt of decades of stolen life.

[Gateless Gate @gateless_zen]

@BasedMikeLee @BlkRobeRegmnt76 Yes. Cover to cover, more than once, as a kid, as a missionary, as an adult, and on my knees with Moroni 10 exactly like you described. Most of us read it more carefully than the people still defending it like you. That's the part that should bother you.

[Gateless Gate @gateless_zen]

@BasedMikeLee If I pray and feel it's true, that's the Spirit confirming it. If I pray and don't, I "didn't ask sincerely" or need to keep trying. A test where "no" is always the seeker's fault isn't a test, it's a loop with one exit. Devout Muslims feel the same burning about the Quran.

@binchpower @BasedMikeLee Love the metaphor, one problem: the original driver was Christ, and the route ended at the cross. Your bus added a stop in upstate New York to pick up a new scripture, a new God, and a dispatcher in Salt Lake who decides who gets a seat. It's a different bus going somewhere else

@BasedMikeLee @conservmillen I sat through years of temple recommend interviews as a member. You don't get into the temple, the center of LDS salvation, by affirming Christ. You get in by affirming that you sustain the prophet and that the Church is "the only true church." That's the gate.

[Gateless Gate @gateless_zen]

@BasedMikeLee @conservmillen In LDS theology Christ isn't sufficient. Exaltation requires temple ordinances, priesthood authority, and sustaining living prophets, all controlled by one institution in Salt Lake. "Christian" means Christ is enough. Mormonism teaches He isn't

@tferriss @DrSynbio These were very dense, and informative conversations. I love the conversation around healthcare spending, and got my mind building charts that I offloaded to Claude

Execution without regulation becomes aggression.
Clarity without regulation becomes rumination.
Regulation without execution becomes stagnation.

Great podcast on lying @iamstephenwest. I really loved the Hannah Arendt lesson on large scale distrust and lying distorts reality for the entire society.

@garrytan Imagine if everybody was just doing what they love to do for decades at a time. Serving each other out of love of the project because it's what one enjoys doing (depth / length of flow state). We need an Anti-Moloch movement to capture all that untapped flow productivity.

Thank you for reminding me to reclaim my funny, goofy, curious side. My 5-year-old son is the most fun human in the room all the time. He emits Joy. I love channeling that energy. I need to reclaim that. Too much programming.

[Gateless Gate @gateless_zen]

@The4thWayYT Hell yeah

[Gateless Gate @gateless_zen]

@garrytan Beautiful chart. The colors, the percentile, the labels. Slay 😘

@sama Still not sure how to get agents working on codex

[Gateless Gate @gateless_zen]

@garrytan @heydave7 Yes. I'm trying to get my company to use my personal task management system that is 10x better than Jira,.Asana, Clickup, and especially Planner 🤮, the one my comp uses. How do I sell it to my company? That's a conversation I'm not looking forward to.
