It is an interesting focal point in urging simplicity for the sake of keeping people in the fold. |
The apostolic K.I.S.S. message. Hooray!
Simplicity is good. But not always. |
Who cares about the false doctrine boogie man?
I don't believe the same things I did 20 years ago, and I'm better for it. Figuring out that some POV has error is a great way to cultivate love of truth. As Hugh B. Brown said, the remedy for bad thinking is generally more thinking. I'm not interested in becoming a simpleton, or a tape recorder for someone else's thoughts. Mortality is not about safety. Adam chose safety, but Eve chose rightly. It's as though some members of the Church have a "stay in the Garden where it's safe" fetish. Seeking truth and avoiding error are not the same quest. I'm all about the former. |
A ship that will not risk running aground will never find new lands.

Is "personal interpretation" kind of like "personal revelation"? and if so, does the Holy Ghost help us avoid it?
