According to Gordon B. Hinckley in this last Stake Conference we had (it was a regional broadcast.) said that "ten years ago you could go to Washington, kick a tumbleweed and out would pop a jack-mormon."
I think it;s sad that there are places like that in the world. but it happens i guess, all you can do is hope for the best and try to uplift them.

That's what you think you hear, that's not what they are saying. Stop projecting you opinions on what they are really saying. If you actually understood the problem, then you could be a little more compassionate, but then again, I've never seen compassion to be one of your strong points.

That would work, if you actually tried it. :areyoucra

I tried to enlighten you that Sister Beck is right, so yes.

There is a difference between your supposed 'enlightenment' and uplifting a woman, you obviously can't see it.
I'm completley done with this thread. It's disgusting that you actually think the way you do, that sort of attitude has put people off from he Church so many times. Instead of being compassionate and trying to understand, the person is stubborn and always has to be right. Don't tell me that it's their fault they won't come to the Church, Church members should be inviting, and we should always be an example for the Church.

Of course it is, but it happens all the time. People are turned off by self-righteousness in the fellow Church members, and whether it's a good reason to become inactive or not, it's a fact that more people leave the Church because some holier-than-thou jerk has offended them than do over disagreements over doctrine.

And it's even worse if the holier-than-thou jerk is the way he is because of a disagreement over doctrine.

Gee, and all this time, I've been thinking it took a man's anatomy, too.
I only had two children. It was by a mutual agreement between my husband and me that we limited our family. We did not have our first child for nine years into our marriage. Our second was born two-and-a-half years later. Here's my question to you:
Was my "sin" not wanting more children or was my "sin" not having additional children I didn't want?

Sorry, Katz. Flame and ash for you.

Also, question, It showed nutshell as banned, then someone comes on ehre and posts under a different name, and now Nutshell's name is on "her" posts. Was Nutshell pretending to be someone or is it a glitch?
