You know, what I’m wondering is, when the one dude called himself legion in the bible, was he really posessed, or did he have multiple personality disorder, or is there no distinction.

By the way, I’ve switched to John now. George had to sign off. Fred says hi too. And now Mike would like to chime in.

You know, it seems you think your are “defending the faith” in your comments, but don’t you realize that your un-Christlike attitude is exactly the type of thing that poisons Mormon culture and drives people out of the Church? Shouldn’t we be trying to make the tent bigger out of a motivation of love for God’s children instead of trying to exclude as many people as possible from our midst?

George — your views about Sunstone and its ilk seem very well-settled and, while I disagree, I can respect where you’re coming from. The ultimate question in the recommend interview is, “do you consider yourself worthy to attend the temple.” All other questions are ancillary to this. If your “a la carte” approach enables you to answer this question with confidence, then good for you. I’m in no position to “find fault,” as you suggest. At the same, I take a differing approach and am entitled to the same deference. Your views on Sunstone, whether right or wrong, have absolutely no place in determining my personal worthiness to attend the temple, period. What works for you is not a universal standard to applied to all seeking to enter the temple. That’s what concerns about your talk of “apostates.” You need not besmirch others in order to better yourself. That’s all I’m trying to say.
