  9. Something I don’t think anyone else mentioned is baptism by proxy. This has particular significance for me because of a story my seminary teacher shared with me, so it’s one of the first differences I think of. Essentially, members will be baptized in place of those who could not be baptized in their life. Usually the members are descended from them, but that isn’t a requirement. Don’t take me wrong, this is not a conversion against will baptism. We believe that the soul will chose for themselves in the afterlife. The importance of this, from my perspective, is two things. First, people who had never had a chance to even hear Christianity have a choice of conversion. And second, there is a small group of people who would be physically unable to be baptized (this is the story that I heard).
  10. Yes - definitely. There is a passage of our history (during translation) in which Martin Harris, who was helping translate, requested the papers (there was only one copy at that time) to show to his wife, who was pressuring him about his beliefs at the time. Joseph Smith told him no, but after repeated requests, he gave him 116 pages, what we know as the Book of Lehi. Short story, the pages were stolen. We believe that Joseph Smith refrained from retranslating them because whoever had stolen them wished to tamper with them and then essentially say that the prophet was contradicting himself. We never got these pages back. However, we also believe that the Lord has already provided a “backup” - but we also believe that, rather than it being a backup, it contains more detail and more prophetic guidance (Nephi wrote two books, one he called a historical record - lost, and one he called a spiritual record) - that was also translated. After this, Martin Harris kinda sinks into sullen shame. And so, everyone is surprised when Joseph Smith brings him back - forgives him. He becomes one of the Three Witnesses, and never once denies the truth of what he saw. We don’t worship our prophets. Just like we don’t worship the prophets of old.
  11. Carp, the universe swear silently. It had forgotten about those. Those will make this interesting. ”They… they just appeared. Crap. Sshhh. In here.” The urchin pulled up the floor next to a train station, entering the tunnel.”
  12. “Interesting. Them peoples are going to try to convince them to help us - I believe I have a bit of a detour.” He looked to the fox. “So. If you go with them… could I have a hair of yours? I don’t currently have my power, so I’ll have to use that to meet back up with the group. I believe the Slumber, and the travel, will disorient me to the point that I will not be able to find the Plot again.” @Bird Furious Addressing their guide, ”I believe I would like to leave early, I am afraid.”
  13. The urchin led him north - away from the square. “They came from the north, but I’ve found it easier to avoid them in their territory than where they came from.”
  14. The urchin returned, tugging at his arm. “You gotta go! The Depthdrinkers are coming.”
  15. “Hhhmmm… Сталинград! Я в Сталинград! Я пилот, и я уже в водка!»
