This is interesting. I had to go to Mormon services when I was at BYU Law School in 1982. I found the people there friendly for the most part. I went there on a Merit Scholarship which was for non-Mormons but covered the cost as much as if had been a Mormon.

I had a recent convert as a roommate which was a huge problem as I needed to study and not talk about religion. and recent converts often want to spread the news, so to speak.

immersion conversion is a strategy to gain new converts. Hence your new convert roommate, and not just by chance I'm guessing.

I think the answer is: "no eye has seen it" = complete void, "no ear has heard" = complete and absolute silence, "what no human mind has conceived" = infinity.

By "Infinity," are you saying after life? Please explain what you mean.

It's a tragedy what hunters do to wild animals; then hanging up their heads as trophies. Watch the movie "Sequoia." The Capitol Presents 'Sequoia,' a Distinguished Animal Film The New York Times - Breaking News, US News, World News and Videos › 1935/02/23 › archives › the-c...
But the film possesses genuine artistic distinction, and it encompasses an emotional cycle that is more profoundly touching than most human make-believe.

My son and his wife converted to the LDS church a few years ago and I attended their baptism. When I asked my son why he was converting he said "They take care of you, Dad". Well, right after the service his bishop, a dentist, came up to me and asked me when my son was going to get a job. lol

Later on after my son and his family moved to the Reno area I went to church with them when I visited. I got to know his bishop who I liked very much and visited in his office on occasion. One time his assistant came to the door and announced Mr. So and so was there with his W2. They are serious about tithing!

More than likely. And two BYU ladies already seemed to have me in their future plans. You need BYU's approval for where you live when attending so I was on campus in a dorm that had separate towers like for the sexes. But a shared food court.

I think the BYU Law School Class of 1985 had two women in it and maybe almost 100 men. Most of these married. And they could bring babies to classes. The law school seemed to encourage it.

Since we are finite creatures with a begining, middle, and end, infinity is a concept that, imho, is impossible to convey or conceive. My spur of the moment attempt goes like this. "With out end. No up, down, right, left, begining, ending. No point of reference. FOREVER."

Can you imagine you are on a line that goes to your righ and to your left. You go one we and I go the other. We both set out. We travel a trillion times the speed of light and we live a million life times. Neither of us are any closer to the end of the line because there is no end. No end! That would be infinity in one dimension. We exist in 3 dimensions. No mater what direction you go you are never any closer to an end, because the is no end. Eternal life would not get you closer to an end, and since you have eternal (never ending, infinite) life, even death can't release your never ending travel.

So, Infinity, could be a curse or a blessing. There is always the possibility of infinite joy and love.

What do you think?

I’m not sure what happens after death. I have a very close person pass away recently. Then a few days ago, as I was watching golf on the television and checking my emails on the iPad at the same time, this person came to me dressed as usual, from the air and gave me a sweet hug and left the same way. I have never, as a scientist, never believed in ghosts but this event was as real as the couch I’m sitting on.

Believers in Jesus will spend eternity In heaven with Him. Those who do not believe will spend eternity in hell If you repent and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ you will be saved. He is the only one who paid the price for sin. Many will say I’m narrow minded but you asked a really serious question and you deserved the Truth and a serious answer.

I agree. The fun part is defining the " we". Our real selves, our unreplaceable selves is the electrical impulses that course through our bodies, which like dominoes can be traced to the creation of energy at the big bang. Hence the phrase brain dead when this energy is no longer present. Remember after the big bang energy cannot be destroyed.to me this energy houses our souls not the mystical enchantment assigned to the heart . Be prepared to meet our creator for " you know not the hour".

Ever had a general anesthetic? There’s a momentary rush of relief, then nothing. No pain. No tears. No knowing.

Only 30% of the world is christian. Combine that with how many of those christians are hypocrites.What if one believes one day and the next has doubts I.E. waffles. Do they get an admission ticket? That heaven you speak of is a pretty exclusive place.
