god has given us the precious gift of free agency. a choice to do evil or good. i believe people committing such horrible acts of hate will be accountable for their actions. god cares about the sparrow falling from the tree, god cares about the little girls in africa, he cares about all his children every second. let's continue to meditate and pray for the world and do all that we can to help those in need. i prayed to know for myself and felt warmth spread from my heart to my whole being. love

I'm sorry... I don't mean to be rude to you, but with all the atrocities committed in the world today, muslim extremists go around beheading children & twisted cults have sex w/ children, 1/2 of sub-saharan Africa has AIDS, but THERE IS A GOD! And he is interested in helping little Jimmy get an A on his test, & whether or not I get a speeding ticket when the cop is walking over to my car... I mean, come on... Really?
I gotta be honest with you, that makes ZERO sense to me.

oh no, those were not mormons at all. they formed their own (twistied i think, those poor children!!) religion using only a few mormon ideas. we in utah are trying to help kids out who have escaped the compound they were held in. sad, sad stuff.
LDS is all about god being a loving and personal god who cares very much about his children and who sends angels and his spirit to comfort us, guide us to happiness and bring us eternal life.

LDS? They're all over the news in the US right now... Some 400 children were just seized from one of their polygamist compounds. I think I'll pass.
