Which would you choose?

After reading the post about Nelson getting the Covid vaccination made me wonder what I would do if given the choice to A) Go along with the church and it's slow journey towards Babylon. Or B) Maintain my belief in various freedoms and the "old beliefs" of the gospel
What I mean is what if the church cracked down on those who keep speaking of freedom, America, whatever you like. Recall the church purging the survivalist in the 80s/90s. Or the ordain women group today. If they demanded us to quit participating in forums such as this or face disciplinary council what would you do. Fall in line and humble yourselves or continue your outright rebellion and suffer the consequences? I for one would maintain my beliefs as I do today. I understand the teachings that whatever the priesthood binds on earth is bound in heaven. Do I believe that if I were excommunicated that somehow my marriage would become invalid in the eyes of the Lord? Absolutely not. If men, including the church leaders, make mistakes as mortal men then their decision to kick me out for some sort of rebellion is also not valid in heaven. So what are your thoughts? There is no right or wrong. Would you submit to the leaders and give up your "extremist views," or would you raise your own Standard of Liberty and raise a giant middle finger?

I will not beat my sword into a plowshare. I will fight for truth and not concede for peace.

I have anti-conformist DNA.
I don't like ultimatums.
Persuade me or piss off

They will chase you out. Formally or informally. Divergence is not to be tolerated in any religion. Find out what the Lord wants YOU to do and do that no matter what. Let athoritah damn itself.

My birth certificate states for race, ANGLO SAXON. I have seen no mention of their beliefs being forfeited as their language was forcefully removed by England. The only certainty I have, is God is no respecter of people or nations. Borders will not exist when Christ rules. I look forward to sanity being restored. When the prophet included in one of his letters, which was church distributed, he said "We are following the directives of govt and health care leaders,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,," I knew we were expected to rely on the Holy Ghost for daily prayer to guide and direct us. The one point which causes concern is masks and hand sanitizer in Temples. China is the nation making the masks???.

Option B every day of the week

Think about men like John Taylor and what they sacrificed and did, without making a single compromise or concession. We need men like that

Option C. Do what the Lord tells you to do and only that.

Option D. Do whatever you think is best and quietly go about your life and let whatever happens happen.

Option E Buffet Table the issue.

And so on and so forth.

This is a classic case of the Black and White fallacy.
