From Kolob In Peace

Really makes ya think.

I can't help but find it amusing that the FBI agent assigned to dealing with Robert Jay Matthews, who converted to Mormonism, was named Joseph Smith.

"...marriage opponents don't have the same social movement..."

The predominant religion in Utah gives homophobic screeds as wedding gifts, dude.

This is gonna make the next Chad Daybell.

Josh Coates driving a tank.

The guy who created this also owns a M18 Hellcat tank destroyer. Pictured here.

I've had fun with the LDSBot.

Good thing Utah has an abundance of subpar, scammy software companies to fit this educational need

Yeah isn't the point of a technical to be cheap and rugged? The Cybertruck is neither or those.

Makes for a good ad too. "They are so powerful the Air Force had to test their missiles on them specifically!"

"In the operating theatre it is likely the type of vehicles used by the enemy may transition to Tesla Cyber trucks [sic] as they have been found not to receive the normal extent of damage expected upon major impact"

“Additionally, its 48V electrical architecture provides superior power and efficiency, a feature that rivals are only beginning to develop. Extensive internet searches and industry outreach by [redacted] found no vehicles with features comparable to those of the Cybertruck.”

"The [market research] revealed that the Cybertruck’s aggressively angular and futuristic design, paired with its unpainted stainless steel exoskeleton, sets it apart from competitors typically using painted steel or aluminum bodies"

Tesla Cybertrucks Wanted By Air Force As Missile Targets The Air Force says enemies may use Cybertrucks in the future, so its Test Center needs to add them to its live fire target fleet.

The Air Force thinks other countries are going to start using combat Cybertrucks? Color me skeptical.

The source document reads like a Tesla ad.

Yep, he didn't start down that path out of nowhere.

In one area the previous missionaries had to cast out a demon from the apartment like one week before I transferred over. I just missed it!

It's way more common than they would lead you to believe, they just don't often call it an exorcism. A man can put his arm to the square and cast out an evil spirit using the power of God. I found a Reddit thread of people discussing having done this while Mormon: www.reddit.com/r/exmormon/c...

I was so disappointed that I never got to cast out evil spirits on my mission.

"Lohmeier claims he gained the ability to shake someone’s hand and tell whether Christ or Satan was the guiding influence in their life."

Here's the scriptural reference for where this idea come from: www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/script...

I also hope people revisit Bleeding Edge, because it got middling reviews at the time but I think the last few years have vindicated it, especially in regards to internet politics.

Buying more Palantir stock has ended up being a smart investment for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

David A. Bednar: Tomorrow, I am participating in the Silicon Slopes Summit—a large tech and business event—in Salt Lake City, Utah. For me, this is an exciting opportunity to stand as a witness of Jesus Christ and His restored Church. I’ll be sure to share updates from the event soon.

I think about this a lot.

The Silicon Slopes are such a good resource for the church because it lets them hire people who already have a bunch of experience with tech companies to run departments like this. Get a ton of experience at Qualtrics, then use those same skills at the church.

An interesting nugget in this article is that the church has a Reputation Management division, and they are the ones who handle paying TikTokkers.

You should organize it like the Preach My Gospel lessons

From the shortest presidential campaign to (presumably) the longest. Now that's what I call progress.

This makes me feel bad for members. They're being asked to accept Joseph Smith's polygamy after the church denied it for a century, and one of the sources they are using is the guy who they blame for setting the wheels in motion for Smith's assassination. Honestly, it's cruel.

Sourcing the Nauvoo Expositor on the church website is sending me.

The "this has always been the acknowledged truth" tone is funny because I remember Rough Stone Rolling being the first time I had heard about Joseph Smith's polygamy, and that was the mid-2010s.

It's unfortunate that Dune's most prescient prediction, the Butlerian Jihad, has been changed in these 21st century iterations from "humanity realized that over relying on thinking machines diminished their natural faculties" to "fight the giant evil robots."

When is YoungBoy Never Broke Again going to follow up on his desire to convert to Mormonism?
