There is a long tradition [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The other night I was reading from the scriptures and I found a passage that didn&#8217;t make sense to me. Here are the verses: 18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We need to be very careful when we read the scriptures and use them to take a stance on issues in the church. It is not wrong to do this, per se, but cherry picking a single line can end up with incorrect conclusions. For example, In D&#38;C 76, when talking of those who live [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mormons really have no business sneering at the ideals of socialism. What is socialism? We get this from the wiki: Socialism refers to an economic theory of social organization advocating social or collective ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods, and the creation of an egalitarian society where one&#8217;s labor [...]]]></description>

My answer was probably a parrot of something I read in the bloggernacle at some point in the past, but I don&#8217;t really remember where I got my current view. My answer was to this effect: Q1: Why do we [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a book called The Nine Commandments, David Noel Freedman argues that the Old Testament contains a hidden pattern, carefully crafted and put in place by an anonymous master editor&#8224; of the Primary History (Genesis &#8211; Kings). The hidden pattern is based on the Ten Commandments. According to Freedman, the history from Genesis to Kings [...]]]></description>
