I like to make programs and devices smarter and easier to use. I experiment with new, brilliant interface concepts. I'm a programmer, designer, web developer, and a nice guy.

I like to take pictures. I enjoy good humor in others and the simple things in life, like thunderstorms. Music is a great companion. I seek after anything of good report which makes life more fulfilling.

I believe choices make us who are, and are a major part of how we and others feel.

comment Why do LDS use water and leavened bread in communion when the Jews used wine and unleavened bread?
Certainly, particularly the wording of various ordinances. Paul strove to impress that the Law of Moses was done away in Christ just as equally as he strove to enforce unity and uniformity among the congregations, condemning those who made unauthorized alterations to the services.

@Narnian God gave Jews the Mosaic Law to prepare them for a higher law, which is more liberal in its application. The principles haven't changed, but the application depends upon the circumstances.

♩♫ Hey, I beat Mason Wheeler! ♬♪ ... anyway, valid point, I'll edit that in. @Narnian I don't really know; there's nothing wrong with grape juice, but I suppose some members would potentially have medical needs that just makes water a simpler choice. In some LDS wards, a piece of bread has to be substituted by a corn tortilla for the gluten-intolerant.

comment What does the Bible say about life before conception?
I'm up-voting the answer and both comments. This answer is detailed and partially answers the question at hand, in a very specific way. But I also recommend adding some Biblical references to come slightly more on-topic with the question being asked. Welcome, by the way.

comment What is the LDS meaning of the New Jerusalem?
@jayyeshu Changing doctrines and beliefs is very different from changing the application of the doctrines/beliefs for various contexts.

comment What is an LDS general conference?
@Aubrey, sorry for the delay. I totally missed your comment somehow. I think the other answers covered the rest, but yours specifically mentioned the audience. And yes, citing reliable external references is always encouraged!
