 You're welcome!Just for the record, I forgot to mention that none of the two persons I mentioned on my post grew up in the Church or are in Church. I was just teasing you... but seriously, your spiritual description there is quite close to one of them!!! Yes,... a spiritual twin... I'd say!  A good friend!Have a wonderful day!

Well, fortunately, your message got to me unedited in my email, due to the way subscribing to threads instantly sends replies out. I appreciate the warning. I just think it's a matter of semantics. Jesus was accused of performing miracles by the power of the devil. So whether you call it magick or miracles, it's not what you call it that matters, but the power behind it, don't you think? Kevin

I'm not "inactive", and I'm not "bitter". I'm "done". That chapter of my life has been written and is closed. I will not return to the LDS church. No good would come of it. I would be miserable. I'm full of joy and love and peace as I am right now. The ONLY suffering I am experiencing in my life right now is in relation to my financial health (because I've chosen personal happiness and freedom over monetary security and materialism) and my physical fitness (because I'm still too lazy to get my fat backside out every day to exercise like I should). Why would I ever want to go back? Kevin
