Comment on Forgiveness Mormonism by Shirley

I am very distressed over the fact that my 25 year old Mormon granddaughter refuses to forgive her mother for not attending her one year old grand daughters evening birthday party. The mother (my daughter) had a very important business event that affected the success of her business and offered to come in the morning to help set up for the party and was told if you can’t come for the party, don’t come at all. My daughter went to visit on the actual birthday (3 days later) and was literally thrown out of her daughters house. Now my grand daughter says part of the reason she is shunning her mother is that her mother “was never there for her”. My daughter did not work out of the home and spent her life for her kids until an ugly divorce from a controlling, manipulative, abusive man nearly destroyed her life. From that time on my daughters ex husband manipulated controlled the children and tried to poison their minds against their mother. One instance that I know of for a fact with this granddaughter was that he told her if she lived with her mother, he would not pay her college tuition. He also managed to bankrupt my daughter which she eventually climbed out of working and driving 120 mile round trip to attend school and now has a successful business. But my grand daughter can’t accept the fact that her mother couldn’t be there for many of her high school events during the years after the divorce. and I guess the birthday party was the “straw that broke the camels back”. My grand daughter told me she will forgive her mother when she starts to put family first. My daughters business is their livelihood and if it fails for lack of attention they will be broke. My daughter has called my granddaughter numerous times in the past 3 months to ask if she could come visit and her daughter always has some excuse why they cannot. My daughter was the only one in the family who attended the temple wedding, she was there for her grand daughters birth and spent 4 days with my grand daughter after the baby was born, she did many things to help with her daughter’s wedding. What can I do without offending my grand daughter to move her to forgive her mother?

In reply to Ruth Myers. That's wonderful. We bought some chimes for the office and are ringing them now to celebrate. Thanks so much for letting us know!

Just wanted to leave a note with my sincere gratitude toward this website. Five years ago, I found this website when “googling” a question about Mormon beliefs. It was the information on this website that prompted my further investigation into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and 2 1/2 months later, my baptism and confirmation. I have been so blessed since that initial investigation! Thank you, indeed, for the part you have played in bringing peace and contentment to my life!

Comment on Honor the Sabbath Day by freedom of religion

A genuine religion should increase trust, a bridge to God. The perfect religious conviction command us in community to express be in love with toward each other and toward those less providential, and mobilizes us to feed the hungry, dress the poor, cure the fallen and protect the bereaved. Theology guides our emotions while religion guides our actions. Theology is inward while religion leads outward. Spirituality can be practiced alone, but religion in society. When holiness makes us additional empathetic, religious conviction impels us to perform concrete acts of loving-kindness.

Comment on Fasting Mormonism by Susan Zmolek

As a life-long member of our church, I’d like to point out that it is not a matter of Mormon doctrine that Christ fasted without any food or drink for 40 days. You may sincerely believe this, but please re-phrase your post, before someone else thinks this is an actual requirement for us to believe. Otherwise, thank you for demystifying what fasting means for us!

Good article probably the only one that shines a light on truth, on this topic, on the net.
