Lol. Every year we get a new rendition of Hamlet, "To celebrate Halloween or NOT to celebrate Haloween... THAT is the question!" This time, the prominent nay-sayer is Allie Beth Stuckey, but she isn't just coming for your favorite little holiday, she is after horror movies and true-crime drama herself! But, in the words of John Crist, "That's a tricky theology" right? We analyze in this video. #christian #relatable #LDS #bible #halloween

A proposed data center in Liberty, Missouri sits on the old Michael Arthur plantation.That’s where several Book of Mormon witnesses are buried. Christian Whitmer. Peter Whitmer Jr. Others nearby. Same ground holds slave burials, Mormon refugee graves, and the spot where pieces of Zelph were reburied after Zion’s Camp.John Haya-Czech walked into the Liberty City Council and told them. They said they’d never heard of it.- Church headquarters in the 1830s. Refugees living in the slave cabins. Bricks made by the Saints for Arthur’s house.- Monument placed in 2011. Right spot for awareness. Wrong spot for the actual burials.- Zelph’s thigh bone carried in Wilford Woodruff’s wagon, then reburied near Liberty.- Church owns the surrounding land. This parcel stayed private. Now it’s a data center site between Amazon and Ford.- City council: “This is the first we’re hearing of it.”- Taxes, archaeological surveys, and what happens when nobody checks.Call Gail Miller.

Pope Leo just made an announcement against the Death Penalty, and Trevor Tomesh and Kai Schwemmer were on board! Here's the conversation and THIS is how they almost changed my mind.

Pope Leo just called the death penalty an attack on the dignity of the human person.Catholics are already fighting. Trads say Chicago went woke. Others say finally.Trevor Tomesh  @realdrtt  (Catholic, former atheist) and Kai Schwemmer  @kaischwem  walk into the wigwam with Cardon.- Not new. Catechism changed in 2018 under Francis. The word is **inadmissible**.- Respect Life Month: conception to natural death. Euthanasia, MAiD, then this.- Cardon’s radio-show argument: the death penalty as a path to repentance. The pastor said he’d think about it for days.- Millstone for child offenders. Woman caught in adultery. Both in the same book.- Augustine, Aquinas, Trent, the Papal States. Then John Paul II. Then Francis. Then Leo.- Green Mile: “Don’t mess with him. He has paid his price to society.”- The one case: premeditated murder, then he wants to atone. Have we closed the door?- Two deaths don’t balance the scales. Corrections officers pay too.- Cost, martyrs, and the guy who would rather die than sit in the trial.- Steel-man the other side: deterrence, Deuteronomy, slippery slope.- Then Nephi and Laban. And Ezekiel 33:11.Cardon starts at 99%. They almost get the last percent.#PopeLeo #DeathPenalty #WardRadio #TrevorTomesh### Chapter Markers0:00 – Pope Leo says no death penalty 2:50 – “Inadmissible” is not “morally wrong” 4:55 – The repentance argument that stopped a pastor 5:50 – Authority of the pontiff.
