Re: Personal Revelation
I have just been watching the face to face worldwide youth event with President Eyring and Elder Holland and I love how they both answer an initial question about how we know when we are receiving personal revelation from the Holy Ghost versus our own personal thoughts and desires, as well as a coup...

Re: Abortion
I abhor even the thought of abortion. I still remember the stories about different types of abortions that I heard during medical school. It is so hypocritical of our society that we will spend millions of dollars and months of NICU time to preserve the life of a premature infant at 22 1/2 or 23 wks...

Re: Attributes and Approaches of Effective Gospel Teachers
I agree. Thanks for being a great example of this (reading/preparing the lesson in advance even when you are not scheduled to teach).

Re: Family and Individual Scripture Study
Great topic! I'm always looking for ways to improve my personal and family scripture study (as opposed to just reading). We read from the Book of Mormon in the boys' room along with a few bedtime books and prior to family prayer. We also have a book that is a collection of Book of Mormon stories wit...

Re: inequality
In his talk today on opposition, Elder Oaks taught that Satan's plan would have forced "perfect equality." Satan would have us bring people down to make things equal, whereas the Savior has taught us in numerous ways (through His own voice in scripture and through the words of His witnesse...

Re: cooking with alcohol
We use extracts (like almond extract) on occasion in our baking for flavoring. I thought all of these had alcohol in them. I had not considered these a problem but would be interested to hear if some people avoid them for this reason. When I saw the title of this thread, I thought you were referring...

Re: Socialism
I intended to respond to some of James' posts and never took the time to do so. I am sorry to hear about the experience that your family had with your sister's health crisis. It sounds like that was very difficult and no doubt shaped the way you view healthcare. Yes, healthcare costs are exorbitant ...

Re: Socialism
I just have a few moments and have not read all posts from the past day but am very glad to see more discussion. For now, I have one question for James - what was the reason for quoting from 4th Nephi? Did you feel this describes a socialist society? I don't see anywhere a government imposed sociali...

Re: Socialism
the obvious answer is that increased government control would not improve things. That is what I would imagine as well. I asked because I would like to understand the thinking behind the opposite point of view. Thanks to James for your response. Could you provide more details? How would a total soc...

Re: Secularism
Thanks for those quotes, especially from Elder Romney and President Lee and for the verses from Helaman. Thanks to Angela for how she shared her testimony. Two of the most important attributes in holding on to the iron rod must be humility and faith. How could we ever, EVER think that our thoughts a...
