The Truth about Mormons

[Avatar4321]

Do you have to be somewhat of a retard to be a mormon? It's not like anyone of them has ever split the atom or anything...

Funny you should say that:

A nuclear engineer is a simpleton?

I am pretty sure that nuclear engineers split atoms for a living.

My point was that no mormon invented anything of any worth, so he worked as a nuclear engineer, he didn't invent the field, he gave up to go recruit more mormons or whatever. He all you got?

Hister, waht up, man? Mormons, including the LDS, are no better and no worse than anyone else, so why are you flogging a dead horse.

Good question. Just haven't figured out what exactly he is looking for. What is acceptable?

The idea that there aren't intelligent accomplished Mormon's is simply absurd.

I would put money on the mormon guy I take care of, being ten times smarter than you.
And I might remind you, that Ken Jennings who won more money than anyone else on Jeopardy was a mormon.

I was just wondering if any mormons had discovered anything major, or if they were basically all just goobers, like they appear to be when they come to my door.
Ok, so the TV guy, I looked it up, interesting... But the Jeopardy guy, gimme a break, he knew a lot (I like the show and watched him win), but c'mon, that's hardly Nobel quality.
Buncha goobers.... I guess?

If you ever have heart problems, you might want to thank this Mormon:

Russell M. Nelson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A native of Salt Lake City, Utah, Nelson studied at LDS Business College while in his mid-teens and then worked as an assistant secretary at a bank.[2] He did undegraduate studies and then received an M.D. degree from the University of Utah in August 1947. Shortly thereafter, he began working with the team of doctors which created the first heart-lung machine. In 1951, the machine was used in the first open-heart operation on a human being. Four years later, Nelson was the first doctor in Utah to perform successful open-heart surgery using a heart-lung machine.

Nelson served a two-year term of medical duty in the U.S. Army during the Korean War, being stationed in Korea, Japan, and at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. Later he worked for a year at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts. During this time in Massachusetts he also received training from Harvard Medical School.[3]

He received a Ph.D. degree from the University of Minnesota in 1954.

Nelson returned to Salt Lake City in 1955 and was initially on the academic staff of the College of Medicine at the University of Utah, where in November of that year he performed the first cardiac operation in Utah utilizing cardiopulmonary bypass. That operation was performed at the Salt Lake General Hospital (SLGH) on an adult with an atrial septa defect.

In March 1956, Nelson performed the first successful pediatric cardiac operation at the SLGH, a total repair of tetralogy of Fallot in a four-year-old girl. In 1959, he joined the staff of the Salt Lake Clinic, became associated with the LDS Hospital, and continued to make major contributions to the development of the thoracic specialty both in the clinical sciences and as the second director of the residency program.

Nelson's surgical volume was sufficiently large that it was a critical component of the residents' experience. He was an innovative and facile surgeon responsible for many improvements in cardiac operations. He also established a research laboratory at LDS Hospital.

By the late 1960s, Nelson's experience with artificial aortic valve implantation was such that he was able to report a large series of patients with an exceptionally low operative mortality.

In a unique combination of spiritual and professional obligations, Nelson performed heart surgery on LDS Church president Spencer W. Kimball.

So that's it I guess?
Gooberdom.

You will find that Most of the LDS on this board are fairly low key and hard to piss off. But you will also find I am quite capable of defending myself. Your name is quite interesting, tell us the entomology of it and why you chose it. Goober boy.

No biggie? I'm willing to bet you'd disagree if you were having serious heart problems.

So what exactly do you think would be significant?

Oh no, there are many, many more I just listed three that I could remember off the top of my head. I'm not Mormon so I'm not really up on the who's who...

But why continue to beat around the bush? Why not just come out and say you hate Mormons? That's what this is really about.

I can't figure out what he wants. He wanted a Mormon who split atoms. I show him a nuclear engineer. He wants examples of Mormons who have discovered and developed things. I give him the Television, New heart surgery techniques. Not enough yet. Just not sure what he wants here.

Doesn't matter though. We could have the smartest people in the world. Doesn't mean our faith is true. The only way to learn whether Jesus is the Christ, Whether He rose from the dead. Whether the Book of Mormon is true or if Joseph Smith was a Prophet is to study it out and learn it directly from God. You have to learn the way Peter did, from the Father.

It's just one of those things of life.

I don't think he hates Mormons though. I just think he is highly skeptical and finds it completely irrational. I don't blame him for that. When you don't know anything about us, it be pretty easy to say we are absurd. When you look into what we actually believe and try to understand it, you will find that it's very rational. We just accept different premises.
