Thought train

Have you ever reversed your train of thought to determine how you got there? Tonight, I would like to document where a train of thought went using some hyperlinks for your own benefit- and 'cause I love 'em- and amusement.

1)Preparing to teach a primary class about baptism for the dead.

2)Doing a Yahoo search on what other churches takes on 1 Corinthians 15:29 is. (Oi! Did some of that make my head spin.) The most ironic and poignant comment I saw there was, "Vicarious baptism... The strongest argument for this interpretation is that it is easily derived from the plain reading of the verse...."

3)After that, I looked at what the Primary lessons so far this year had been. One was on Gov. Bogg's extermination order. In that, there was a neat story of a boy who his hip had been destroyed and his mother was inspired how to fix it.

4)I did a search on "mormon+'new hip'+alma" to see if there was any medical research on how she did it. That gave me a hit on"Feminist Mormon Housewives".

Right, it's 1 AM and this is longer than I like, so I am going to shortcut some.

5) Found various Mormon blogs. Somehow hooked onto Mormons and martial arts.

6) Got this hit by a gent w/ the nickname "Ninjormon".

7) Did a search for "ninjormon" and got the culmination of tonight's fun. Enjoy.



I realize in retrospect that I was going way A. D. D. w/my web searches. :)

Also, I plan to post sometime soon about my Kajukenbo black belt test, which I passed in July.

As much as I hate mormons, I have to admit that that wasn't half bad. Only I think Mormon Ninjas definately would kill people. Why not? Nephi, Joshua, Porter, Ammon, Moroni, David, ... religious people have a long and pretigious tradtion of killing other people. Why else would half the songs inb the hymn book be about war? Onward Christain What? Bakers? Preachers? no, I don't think so. Onward Christian Assasins!

Hey do you teach primary on a regular basis?

Peaceable warriors, that's us. Don't forget Teancum.

First time. I put myself on a volunteer list to teach primary. I was teaching Sister Clements' class.
