21 common questions about the Mormon faith as answered by Fox News

These questions were answered very accurately. Honestly, I don't think Mitt Romney has much of a chance anymore.

I make jokes about Scientology and the who Xenu thing, have I been offending you? You never offend me :) Actually, I hadn't put the two together. Kolob is something that I rarely think about. In my mind, it is just another name for heaven. Heaven has to be somewhere, doesn't it?

Um, heaven is not the Griffendor common room. rofl!! Oh, if only it were...

Then again...I know some other non-Mormon Christians who are like this too. So never mind. I just answered my own question. *lol* Yeah, this would have been my answer. I think many men (not all!) of all faiths, non-faiths, whatever, have this problem. Many women as well, let it happen.

As for your last point: This is deep, deep doctrine. It's not discussed on a regular basis and honestly, I couldn't tell you exactly where the church stands on this. We are taught that someday we can become Gods and Goddesses and help in the creation of worlds. Does this mean that we will "rule" our own planet? i have no idea. Whose to say that God didn't employ our help in the creation of the earth? You've seen Hitchhikers Guide the the Galaxy. It takes a lot of people to build a planet :)

Mice! You need mice!

I'm reading Hitch right now and it's hilarious! I just got to the part where the guy explains to Arthur that's it's really the mice that wanted earth built.

You know, who's to say what the afterlife is going to be like. We may all be dispatched to other universes or be reincarnated or whatever. Heaven, afterlife is just too much for my little brain to try to conceive. So I dont'. It's just tooo much for me.
