Stop the Persecution

I want you to read THIS and think of what it would be like if this was passed. No more would you see anti-Mormon this or anti-Mormon that. No more commercials talking about the Mormons trying to take away your rights. No more protesters standing outside our temples. It would all end if we had this anti-blasphemy law.

Now that you are excited and think you have found a way to get the world off our backs I want you to re-read the article and think about the implications of it. What is it we believe? We believe that we are the one true church, the only church that holds the priesthood. Under such laws like this anti-blasphemy law we would not be able to proclaim this because it denounces all other religions as false. There are already law suits against pastors in other churches that declare homosexuality as wrong because it is discrimination.

Let us not fall under the craftiness of the evil one and think that laws restricting our freedoms as a way to force people to do what is right. That was the plan of Lucifer, to not give people the choice to do bad, or good. Let us be like Alma and Amulek in Alma 14:11. We must let the wicked choice to be wicked or else they could not be justly punished. It is ours to stay the course and though it may be hard to endure we must not fight against agency. Remember the words of Alma “…for behold the Lord receiveth them up unto himself, in glory...”

Boys will be Boys... or will they?

The meaning of this phrase has changed drastically over the years. If any of you have boys or are boys then you know how important it is to avoid stuff like what was found in THIS public school. Yes I know that your child might happen to run across something like this other places but the peer influence saying that this is acceptable is what you should truly be worried about. You can’t always shield your kids from evil but to put them in a place where evil is said to be good and at a time in their lives in which they are trying to figure out who they are is a mistake. Maybe it’s not necessarily the evil in public schools that you should be worried about but the acceptance and promotion of it.

There is no doubt that your kids will be faced with the choice between good and evil but why make them chose in an environment that is pushing them to the evil? How many of the kids who snickered in this article wouldn’t have if everyone else wasn’t doing it? That I can’t tell you but I can tell you that kids are not inherently bad and so if you don’t let them be influenced by unnecessary evil they are much more likely to make the right choices.

Don’t forget why we are here. We are here to prove ourselves that we will do what God has commanded us. We are not here to be the most popular in school or to let the world teach our kids in the ways of the world. Step up to what you have been given steward over and do not fail inside the walls of your own home. Don’t out source your responsibilities because when the day comes it is still your salvation on the line for the raising of your children, not the public schools.

Who is going to public school?

Read THIS and tell me if our democratic president elect, who is against vouchers, doesn’t even trust public schools why do you?

”…the Obamas felt that a private school was in the best interest of their children. The two girls currently attend the private University of Chicago Laboratory Schools, where Michelle Obama is on the board.”

Do you know who is responsible for the climate change

The Earth is responsible for the climate change.

“…soils are by far the world's largest source of carbon dioxide, producing 10 times more carbon dioxide each year than all the carbon dioxide emissions from human activities combined. Small changes in how carbon emissions from soils are estimated, therefore, can have a large impact.”

Lucky Me

Ok so I don’t know how many of you have Gmail accounts but I love mine. Yesterday I saw this little banner that said Gmail now had themes. I thought to myself “sweet!” so I now have the option of picking a theme for my Gmail account. When I got home I was going to change Jessica’s theme and surprise her. Well come to find out only some people got the themes and she was not one of them. I had such a good time showing my theme off to her that I thought I would rub it in a little more to those of you that didn’t get it either. The theme I picked is the weather. It changes with the current weather for my area. Way cool! I’ll post some screen shots to show you, just don’t drool on your keyboard.
