I like that!

Thanks.
I am so glad it resonated with you. Some people might have felt insulted to be compared with vain psycho-babbling. But, not you. If the shoe fits...

Thanks, Wade Englund

Another accusation-confession. The celibate Mormon heretic is really knocking it out of the park today!

They are hardly inside-the-box-only thinkers I had in mind…
Of course not. That’s because your thinking is illogical and you don’t realize that what you sound like to others is nothing like the image you apparently have built up in your mind. That’s why getting an education and continuing to learn is so important.
It is ironic that you would say this since I have been offering you and others here a way to get educated and continue learning about spiritual things, Yet you all refuse to think outside the narrow confines of your materialistic box, and are even proud of such a narrow confinement and self-limiting perspective.

And, I get how I may sound within the echo chamber of that conformist box, and how the distortion within that box may give the false impression that my thinking is illogical--for, Inside The Box Rule #1: anything outside the box is illogical and fantastic and should be mocked. It is as if those of us with eyes to see should somehow be trouble by what the blind may think of us. That doesn't sound logical to me.

To each their own.

Thanks, Wade Englund

Bednar himself hosted a Q&A on the Sabbath…
Looking out among 15,000 students in the BYU-Idaho Center here on Sunday, September 22, Elder David A. Bednar of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles moved his finger across the screen of his iPad and read a question.

It was one of approximately 11,000 anonymous questions texted to him during the devotional.

Why is Bednar facilitating a Q&A session on the Sabbath when he denounces it in a separate breath as inappropriate? What is that telling us about the character of the man?

It wasn't the Sabbath that made the Q&A problematic (Sunday School and Priesthood/Relief Society meetings are held on the Sabbath, and often involve Q&A).

Rather, it was the Sacrament.

Which is entirely irrelevant. So a question makes the sacrament null and void or something?! That is truly nonsense. It was Bednar's way of saying I am not here to teach you, I want to lecture, and by gosh I am gonna lecture.
