Spirituality of the Rising LDS Gen. Pt2b: "Transformation"

man that one eyebrow is locked in the upright position

I get so sick of this.

Obama came to our campus and we weren't allowed to protest(not that I wanted to).

No one was even allowed to have signs etc!

Please QUIT pretending it is BYU!!

But you wouldn't be able to make a viable legal case against Obama for committing war crimes.

Also, Ashley supports Nader. It's not a partisan issue.

Boy, I don't know where you found Ashley but she is intellectually smokin hot. She is purely fantastic. I love it. I feel 70% of who she does and feel that our generation will infuse much of those spiritual growth platoes as we mature as a religion. I truly believe that.

[vintageyellow71]

As I have seen younger bishops and If I ever am I think our modern spiritual evolution will be more identified as a custom experience based on the pursuit of ideas and how we arrive to what we believe even when we end up at the same place or conclusions.

[tumblingmatt]

This is why conservative Mormons will ultimately leave the faith and liberals will remain - those in power (the honchos down at Church Headquarters) will appropriate Miss Sanders' way of thinking in order to maintain their authoritative position. She is their shill.

[vintageyellow71]

So do you feel that conservatives in the church don't like to think or reach beyond the basic principles we so easily talk about each week. I guess I mean do you feel we should not reach beneath the surface of our principles to realize why we have such a hard time applying them. I think that holds us back from knowing how to internalize our gospel principles.

[vintageyellow71]

We learn how to maximize financial portfolios. Why not be the same way about our deep seeded beliefs. Maximizing the greatest spiritual potential is really a human thing not a conservative or lib thing. That to me denotes that some members don't want to be deeper and I don't think were supposed to be that way. I think the GA's understand that and would love us all to be more Ashleyesq.

[tumblingmatt]

I think the GAs are having a good chuckle over all of this. Anarchist and Mormon, too? That's some major brain bending!

[vintageyellow71]

maybe so. They may not care at all, your right

[bitherwack]

To a sheep it would seem like brain bending. For the rest of us who actually use our brains, pretty basic.
