The thoughts of a middle-aged Mormon who deconstructed and is rebuilding spirituality. The poster child for a theologically totally depraved person.

I’ve been spending countless hours debating Mormonism and arguing with you all on this app. When the 💩 hits the fan though like it did today, it’s stupid and meaningless. I want all the Mormons in my corner. I love you guys and you’re my tribe.

The wisemen in Matthew symbolically are used to hint how outsiders will follow the savior while insiders will reject him. Here are the details: ☑️Herod asks the chief priests and scribes where the Messiah is to be born. They quote Micah 5:2. But they don’t go with the Magi.

Let’s check in on the Baptist ministers, shall we? The result of Sola Scriptura …

Need more of this and less tribalism.
Mormon Missionaries in Guatemala help out some Roman Catholics by carrying the 'Virgin of the Immaculate Conception' on their shoulders.

If you can’t see anything wrong with the side you DO agree with … AND … You can’t see anything right with the side you DON’T agree with … Then you have been manipulated.

Google, who invented Calvinism?
Calvinism is just biblical Christianity. It’s not a system invented by anyone. It’s believing what the Bible says, particularly concerning the study of God’s work in our salvation.

What bothers me about Christians criticizing Mormonism or Catholicism or whatever, isn’t the disagreement. It’s the asymmetry. They call out all the flaws, inconsistencies, historical problems, theological contradictions. Fine. Critique is fair game. But they do it from inside

Did Paul Teach Tithing? Or Did He Get Rid of It? Paul was a Pharisee and lived tithing. He was one who tithed down to herbs (Matt. 23:23). And yet … Paul never once tells Christians to tithe. Instead, he says Jesus fulfilled the law and presented something new: a giving

This is a symbolic story and not meant to be a discussion of Jesus literally turning water to wine. This story is about transformation of the human soul. Water = potential Wine = realized potential Fermentation = the hidden, slow work of the Spirit Jesus transforms the

You’re not meant to stay the same your whole life. You’re supposed to change. Octavio Paz wrote about this in The Labyrinth of Solitude, an incredible meditation on identity, loneliness, and transformation. He contrasted rock and water to describe human identity. Most people

People don’t see reality. They see their thoughts about reality. Their conditioning, beliefs, fears, desires. They see and hear their made up concepts & stories. Deconstruction helps you see more of the naked reality. Makes you more open and receptive to what is.

Jesus Christ knew he was God. So wake up and find out eventually who you really are. In our culture, of course, they'll say you're crazy and you're blasphemous, and they'll either put you in jail or in a nut house (which is pretty much the same thing). However if you wake up

The study of religion brings me to a pretty clear conclusion: That there is no one true church. No one true faith. There may indeed be a God but it’s not necessarily found in any specific church. The mystics and prophets were souls who were awakened to some spirituality and
