[ZION] Linux Help

2003-06-19 Thread Chet Cox
We have a reactivated brother who is having difficulties with Redhat
Linux.  He says it's the basics (upgrading and uploading).  I remember
John leading a good and informative Linux discussion over a year ago. Is
there anyone left who might be able to help this good buddy out?

Grampa Bill whispers:
   They were/are real. Special Operations group for the Council of the 
Fifty. Co50 is another shadowy organization. Set up by Joseph Smith, 
their mission is seldom really clear, If you read the minutes and 
comments of its members, there seems to be confusion. Some even thought 
the Fifty was to take the lead of the Church after JS's martyrdom. 
Almost childish ramblings and jockeying for position. Last meeting in 
late 1800s after which it dissolved. I don't believe a word of it.
   Co50 was undeniably real. JS spent much time and effort establishing 
it (and JS didn't waste his time). Purpose is less clear but seems that 
even as the Church is to prepare the world spiritually for Christ's 
return, the Co50 was/is to prepare the world politically and 
economically. I believe that it became expedient to do this in a very 
quiet discreet manner and so the group mocked itself and publicly 
dissolved while continuing its work unseen by the world. I suspecct that 
a great deal of the world's wealth and resources are controlled today by 
the Co50 awaiting the time to publicly turn it over to the Lord and His 
prophet.
   If the Co50 was what it appeared to be, s group of buffoons who 
sqabbled and fought until it fell apart, then JS spent a lot of time and 
energy on what became a total failure. Can't believe that. Was real/is real.
   Back to Danites or Avenging Angels. I believe they did/do what 
had/has to be done. That does NOT mean midnight visits to everybody 
whose testimony was/is weak or who was reluctant to allow his daughter 
become a plural wife of one of the Bretheren. Did/do they have a 
license to kill? Probably, but used EXTREMELY infrequently, and only 
when the necessity approached/s that of Nephi wasting Laban.
   Today, I 'spect there is some shifting back and forth between Church 
Security and the Danites with Church Security providing a training 
ground and a ripe field for recruitment of Danite operatives.
   All of the above is probably merely the fevered ravings of a 
somewhat delusional old man. Only the Danites themselves (if they 
exist), the First Presidency, the Fifty, and the Executive Committee 
(the three with the most seniority) of the Twelve are likely to know for 
certain.
Love y'all,

No, it's his number he gave me to use to call him while he is in Utah 
County. I think he just got in a hurry, forgot, and put AK's area code in 
by mistake.

John W. Redelf's, bless his heart, on Sunday morning is traveling about 180 
miles out of his way just to come visit me down here in Enoch (5 miles 
north of Cedar City) Utah. If everything goes as planned, he will meet me 
for Sacrament meeting (9AM) and after Church spend a few hours shooting the 
breeze. I look forward to it. The only other person I've met from my 
on-line activities is Doug Schell.

The last couple of times I was in Utah County, I used my cell phone to call 
people and gave them that number to call me.

Although as it turned out the morning after I arrived the first time I had 
to spend two or three hours fussing at the local cell phone company before 
they would recognize the signal from my 
guaranteed-to-work-anywhere-in-the-US cell phone so it would work at all in 
Utah . . .

[ZION] Royal Families

2003-06-19 Thread Maj Tom Merrill
Folks

I guess I'll turn off the lurk mode and bring up something about which 
I have a passionate opinion.  The subject is royal families.

There is someone in my stake who comes from what some would call a 
prominent family.  They teach in church, and especially within their 
family, this doctrine.  Seems that, according to them, some families 
within Israel have been singled out for greatness.  That there are 
lineages that have been set aside to rule and reign over the rest of us.

What is the opinion of the group?  I'd find your comments interesting as 
well as educational.

As I said, I have some rather strong feelings on this, but I thought 
that I'd ask this august group.

Thx  Cheers
Tom

Hmmm. First of all, ain't no one gonna rule over me (Paul Osborne the
Great), except Jesus, and that's if I let him. So please tell your royal
friend that he will have to rule in some other kingdom and not the one
I'm in ;-)

Second, I think royalty is for the birds and bees who make honey for the
kings to lick up. Sounds like a sticky jar to me. :-)
