Nice! Especially #3. I'm used to cognitive dissonance, so that years ago it wasn't much of a problem anymore. I've noticed that most people with cognitive dissonance go searching for an answer, and have to have one, or the c.d. becomes too great to bear; and if they can't find one, then something has to go. This saddens me. It saddens me more that many people against the vaccines and Covid plandemic have thrown out the apostles, that they are knowingly complicit, because that is the best their brains can come up with.BKColt wrote: ↑November 1st, 2021, 10:27 pm 1. Go peruse openvaers.com and look at the various menu choices in the upper left 3 lined menu. Of particular note is mortality... and the graphs show just under half of the reports are identified as US. So 8,000-9,000 deaths in less than a year in the US. ( CDC has an official number in that range.) Then look at the number of days between injection and death. Very heavy in the 1st 4 days. That sure looks like a causal effect... and it continues to hold true each reporting week after week.
2. Morbidly, I anticipated some deaths in church leadership by now from the injections but that has not transpired. I do have a close friend neighbor member who succumbed a month after the second mRNA vac, full of blood clots and COVID positive. He was doing all he could to follow the prophet.
3. I wonder if we are asked to be vaccinated for a greater cause and not an individual benefit, which may be negative for a small-yet-real and significant portion of the membership.
4. If the prophet is in error and it negatively impacts the moving forward of the Lord's will, I'm confident that truth will prevail within some small season.
5. I have a strong belief in both the precepts and historicity of the Book of Mormon, unashamedly.
Yes, I strongly believe they are wrong about vaccines, not just these. But...
Give it time. Just give it time.
It's not a wise thing to throw out the Lord's apostles.
I'll bet my life that President Nelson as such has had more inspiration and revelations in one week than every single person berating him and the other apostles have had in a month, and likely those who haven't.
There are other possibilities in the mysterious workings of God.
