Classroom or Courtroom?

 I have recently been fascinated with NDEs (near death experiences). When I was Mormon I would look for ones that confirmed my myopic belief structure. I rarely found any, owing to the flawed nature of Mormonism (or any religion). Now that I am out of organized religion, I find inspiration in any sincere NDE. By using the Holy Spirit as my guide, I can usually tell who is honest and who is just seeking attention or who is working for the adversary. I am skeptical of any NDE that purports everyone goes to Heaven. 

I recently came across Vincent Todd Tolman's NDE on the Shaman Oaks YouTube site. Vincent wrote a book The Light after Death where he recounts his experiences while being clinically dead for over an hour, and then in a coma for three days. He was guided by his deceased grandfather Drake and taught 10 principles everyone must learn before being allowed entrance into Heaven. You can watch his 20 minute video explanation or buy his book, but I will relate his idea that most resonated with me:

Life is not a courtroom, Life is a classroom.

Earthquake in New York is a Warning

 I live in California and earthquakes are just part of the experience here. New York is different. What if the recent 4.8 earthquake in New York is a warning from GOD? My best guess (and this is the guess of a sinner) is that New York has had time to decide what to do about abortion since the Supreme Court overturned Roe V Wade. You can currently get an abortion in New York for any reason in the first 24 week period. GOD might be against abortion for any time period or any reason. Certainly 24 weeks seems excessive by any standard of common sense. If GOD mandated an earthquake in California, another home of infanticide, no one would think anything happened out of the ordinary. Have an earthquake in the Empire state (empire of secret murder) and you might get a few people wondering what is going on. I am a firm believer in targeted strikes by the Almighty. Everything from the  angel Moroni falling off  temples, to unusual weather, to Lincoln being shot by John Wilkes Booth...

France to be Destroyed

  I am sure you are aware the France has become the first sovereign state in the history of the world to make abortion a constitutional right. It makes sense, this is same country that basically laid down for Hitler at the start of WWII. The French are consistently foolish and cowardly. Based on the Lehite cities in the Book of Mormon, I predict (not prophesy) that France will one day soon be destroyed. Why? "The blood of the saints" (aborted children) cries from the ground to the GOD of this Earth, Jesus Christ. I have a strong feeling He has had enough of listening to the distress calls of people whose second estate has been horrifically terminated before it began. When the day of mercy runs out, the day of justice begins. Will it start with France? The US is not going to fare much better, but at least we have not as yet made abortion a constitutional right. If that does happen, you may want to move to El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras, Madagascar, or the Dominican Republic....

17 Million Mormons?

Dr. Ryan Cragun has done some excellent research on the decline of religion generally (secularization). He grew up LDS in beautiful Morgan, Utah (up Ogden Canyon), served a mission to Costa Rica in the 1990s, and then left the church in 2004. His latest work turned up the fact that Utah is no longer a majority Mormon state. The LDS church via its media holdings in Utah would like you to believe that 60 percent of the state is still Mormon. They are just not allowed to utter the word "Mormon" for fear of spontaneously combusting, or at the very least going to Hell at some future date (despite the fact the founding scripture of the institution has "Mormon" in the title). Perhaps the church will rename the book, The Book of Nephi, which would be great since it was actually Nephi that appeared to Joseph Smith all those years ago. Cragun's research indicates with a 99.9 percent confidence interval (most studies only use 90-95 percent) that 38-46 percent of the popula...
