Time prevents me from writing as much as I want. I intend to write a series of topics that will serve as a foundation for the next stage or incarnation of this blog (yes, even blogs have multiple lives!). As this blog is currently aimed at those unfamiliar with deeper spiritual matters, I am having to build a foundation upon which to delve into more esoteric topics that I believe LDS Church members desire.
Mormon Christianity tentatively touches many profound subjects, but does so in a way that neither truly educates nor enlightens. Truths are (unintentionally) distorted, and those distortions become 'dogma' that captures the individual - you are not free when you live with dogma. You may not hear the word dogma in church, but you do hear 'doctrine'. Its the same thing.
The spirit is alive. Period. It cannot be reduced to a set of 'principles' without losing something of its essence, or life. If it sounds simple, thats because there is a whole lot more you are missing. Life is complex, it is difficult to understand, it takes strenuous efforts to uncover one truth, then another, then another...and then there is plenty more you still do not know.
Anyway, I hope to introduce you to aspects of life that will provide a more fuller understanding of our temporal and spiritual existence. I'll probably revise a few of the posts on here to ensure that all the necessary concepts and ideas have been laid out.
