he is so funny and likeable! i don't see how anybody can not like him. if y'all don't like him, you don't know much about him. he's so positive:)

Look at all the sheeple laughing at this uninspired clown; a charlitain at best.

Disney land for a Disney doctrine... Mormonism...

So deep and profound. LOL! I have yet to hear anything substantive from him. Most of teachings (if you can call it that) I've noticed are anecdotal and philosophic. Nothing biblical. Nothing revealing the true character of God. Nothing truly profound. This is THE prophet of today!?!? Truly sad.

@Ingle92protege I certainly hope that people are learning for themselves. And just because someone else has proven their own beliefs to themselves does not invalidate them. I would hope that people are striving to gain knowledge and living by what they learn. There is a lot to be learned.

sorry, I don't believe someone elses word. I searched it out and discovered for myself if I could get confirmation for what they were saying. And there is more to it than just feelings. You have to have specific experiences that back up what your learning. And as for the Book of Abraham debate, I'm familiar with why some people think its made up. I don't agree with it.

@Ingle92protege actually, being a sheep is lazy religion. And in the case of mormonism, is the exact opposite of what is wanted. We are told to always test it for ourselves and to learn it for yourself. Don't stand on the testimony of another. The nice thing about God, is that he wants you to learn about him. And each person learns at their own pace. I agree that many religions are man made. I think the truth is out there to be learned, but that most people want to hear what they like.

@Ingle92protege actually, any rejection of any type of religious belief can lead to atheism. All atheism says is that you couldn't prove to yourself that there was a God. That can come from any religion study where you cannot back up what you have learned with your own experiences.

@Ingle92protege (last one!!) If you want evidence, logic, and reasoning for proof you will encounter all the limitations and barriers that they bring. You can investigate it yourself, science and logic have their limitations when it comes to finding truth. I wish you the very best :)

@Ingle92protege (cont...4) Holy Ghost, you ask and if u really want to know u will receive. God not only speaks to the heart but to the mind too, so a testimony is not only a feeling, it comes from reason too. But there's a difference between that and the reasoning of the world. If u want to come to know about the truth of something divine you can't expect a worldly answer or an answer in a worldly way.A divine answer will come in a divine way. It makes sense that it is that way... (last one...)
