Unrelated to the current question but for the sociological record, I would like to point out that there are three Mormons on this blog (me, JohnF, and Arandur), none of us no each other in real life, and I detect no active, believing members of any other religion on LessWrong. (Swimmer963 doesn't believe so she doesn't count.)
If you want to compromise, read Alma 32 verses 21-46, 2 Nephi 2, Alma 7, Alma 42, and Moroni 10. They are probably the most interesting chapters from an intellectual perspective, and total about 8 pages of a 520-page book.
MrHen is a believing Christian. There have been many others, but I'm not sure how many currently remain.
I thought he was on blog-reading hiatus?
He stopped participating in the site for a while, but he returned, and his most recent post dates back to four days ago.
I'm a practicing pastafarian, calcsam.
Well, to be nitpicking, calcsam wrote "active and believing"- which is regarding to pastafarianism a valid differentiation, I think.
I don't follow.
You say you're a Pastafarian, but knowing that I would still be very surprised to learn that you anticipate as if you believe in a flying spaghetti monster that created the universe.
Though from a religious perspective, I'd imagine that you'd want to recommend 3 Nephi, too...
Nice to see another Mormon on here! Thought I was alone. :P
