Battlestar Galactica

 Been watching BSG a bit. I'm currently in Season 4, just started it. I love this show. It is a fine piece of work, that's for sure. Kara came back from the dead it appears. That was kind of nuts, but I accepted it. Lee freaked out about that, hell everyone freaked out when she came back. Is she the final Cylon? Well, I've seen the whole series, so I know the answer to that. We know there are four Cylon's in hiding for now. Pretty interesting choice of people to make Cylons though. Fun back story behind one of them, the chief. But you can look that story up.

Kara's been to Earth. She claims she's only been gone for a handful of hours, but it's been months. So, who knows where she's been exactly. It would be nice if the show explained where she was. Well, I guess they do, at the end of the show they reveal she was an angel or something like that. She manages to help them get to Earth though, so that's all nice and good.

But starting with Season 4, Baltar is seen as some kind of prophet or God like person. A lot of women seem to worship him... it only gets him into trouble. He's basically a cult leader now. It's interesting. Can't wait to watch the rest.

Experiencing suicidal ideation doesn’t mean you’re going to kill yourself, but it can be a warning sign.

An Opposition In All Things

Long has been the story told about how there must be an opposition in all things. From the pre-existence there was Satan, Lucifer the Son of the Morning. In the beginning we were with God in his presence. We learned all we could while there. Until the moment we couldn’t progress any more, we were unable to become like God. So, we were given the opportunity to come to Earth to gain a body. A Savior would be provided to atone for our sins enabling us to come back to the presence of God. The idea that an opposition must be in all things comes from 2nd Nephi: For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
