Adjunct history professor? That’s pretty cool. I didn’t know that.

Re: Theology: Not Convinced
Thank you for sharing that precious experience, msnobody.What happened with me was that God brought me to the point to where I understood that I was much different than Jesus, and I wanted what I saw in Jesus and not myself. He showed me who I was as compared to a holy God. It was around eleven years old. I can’t say I knew much theology at the time.
Looking back, what I do know now is that someone preached the word of Christ, He pierced my heart through the word of Christ, and I was changed.
For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. Heb. 4:12
As Heb. 1 says, in these last days God has spoken to us by his Son. I recommend for persons to read the New Testament as a child.

That’s someone else.
“But if you are told by your leader to do a thing, do it. None of your business whether it is right or wrong.” Heber C. Kimball, 8 Nov. 1857

Ah, Ok. Thanks!

"I am happy to say that I argued for a similar point"
Maybe, but the agendas behind the arguments are totally different. In one instance, the point is to make room for everyone. In the other, it's make room for my niche views so they have time to take root and eventually overrun the rest of the field.
