Didn't the Nephites adopt something similar in terms of freedom of

What is your current belief concerning the United States? Does it need to
be destroyed in its present form--White House, Congressional buildings,

Theophylline, however, does not mean friend of the gods, as one might
naively guess

It shocked me to realize that coffee has theophylline in it. That's

I'm much less enthused by Harry Potter. This was discussed on another
