    I joined the church in my mid-30s and stayed a couple of years. Got depressed and started missing. Also got tired of all the marriage talk I was hearing. I wasn't married then and am not now. So it really got to me. So I started missing and seeing a therapist who said I did not really...

    Pentecostal Woman and their Beauty

    I am not Pentecostal but I see Pentecostal women in their blue jean dresses on a regular basis. I find these women to be the most pretty and honorable looking women in the world. I've been out (on dates) with two women who were Pentecostal but in a church where women did not wear blue jean...

    Methodist and Alcohol and Gambling

    I visited a Methodist church on Sunday. The people were very nice. I have been visiting the Catholic church and love the Mass. The Methodist church did things they do in the Catholic church. I do drink from time to time, not much, maybe once every two months, and not much at that. Plus I...

    Sweat Lodges

    Is there anybody here who has been through a sweat lodge ceremony? How popular are they in the U.S. with Native Americans and non Native Americans? I've read that some Native Americans are upset with others that go through sweat lodges. If this is a religious ceremony, wouldn't...

    What is myth?

    So does a myth just say something about something or somebody or must it also contain something important to learn? I've got a Grimms Fairy tale book waiting on me at the library with complimentary by Joseph Campbell. I hope it touches on this subject.

    Philosophy degree?

    I feel like I'm in the same boat. I do have a degree in Communications but now I'm dealing with depression and reading books on religion, psychology, philosophy, and nature, I'm starting to think I would like to go back and study what makes people tick inside their mind. Then again, I'm...

    Joseph Campbell

    I'm only in the first chapter of Hero/Thousand Faces book. But the point I'm picking up is - all myths are 99.99% the same with the same answer - the answers to our problems are inside each of us, not outside, not in other people, not in other books, but in our individual minds/souls/brains.

    Joseph Campbell

    I just got his Hero with a thousand faces book. First time I've read him. Robert Bly's book was some what hard but still readable. Hero though is much harder to follow. Bly's Iron John book is really good.

    Infallible Prophets?

    lds.net is a great representation of the church. You be a little too honest and you get banned. Try speaking about LDS "prophets" being fallen prophets and you get banned.

    I'm interested in how many of the Quorum of the twelve/fifteen are Republicans vs. Democrats. Also, what about the rest of the 70? Any statistics on the Republican/Democratic breakdown? How about a rundown on the Quorum members past jobs before they joined the Quorum? For instance...
