We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

That makes the church irredeemable. In a sense, it's just a denial of the atonement, the past cannot be forgiven under any circumstances."...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

Originally posted by Northwestcoug View PostEh. Do you know a lot of people who claim they would actively participate in church if only their 'demands' are met? From where I see it, most of the beefs with the church are seen as symptoms of lack of divine guidance. Once someone sees it that way, not much is going to drive that person back to a state of active belief. Now I know there are some progmos out there who both actively clamor for change and hold on to some testimony. I see that a few feminist members very happy over the changes in the temple ceremony. But most progmos are still connected to the church in some manner; they are not threatening to leave if the church doesn't change.
