Hi Dena, nice to be remembered - thanks. I check back here occasionally to read, but I haven't had anything to say, since when did you say, April?
I could check in every Sunday and give a re-cap of things I have gleaned in worship, or I could enter some of the discussions, but to be honest, there hasn't been a topic in me or on the board that has sparked a response.
I found nothing wrong with your banned post. You shared your honest testimony and I admire you for that.
It's not easy to talk religion without offending. For instance, my belief in Jesus Christ as the only begotten Son of the Living God is a shade different than yours, in that I believe the Godhead, though *one in purpose* is three separate and distinct individuals. The root of my belief goes back to the Joseph Smith vision where he learned more about the true nature of God in five minutes than he could have learned by reading all the volumes ever written about Him to that time.
Does me stating my belief offend you, or can you accept that I have my truth, which as you see is a little different than yours?
And, who knows how mine and your truth will be perceived by Dr. Bob? If I'm going to post, I must be allowed to write from my heart because that's how I write. I don't feel safe here and that fear is what blocks me from a response or a post. I am a person who likes to please and help out, not hurt or offend.
