I wonder if the video feed picked that up?"They're good. They've always been good" - David Shaw.
Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

Maybe it was a plant...and the Stake Presidency will hand out flyers..."see what happens next time 'As the Stake Turns.'Originally posted by Surfah View PostI don't know if it did. I am kicking myself right now. I have always wanted to witness that."They're good. They've always been good" - David Shaw.

Our first counselor got five words into his testimony before mentioning Davies. Apparently BYU, and the Church in general, drew a line in the sand, and we're now nationally respected for it.Not that, sickos.

Mercy can never outweigh justice, otherwise there is no justice.Originally posted by Surfah View PostThey do. Until they need mercy."Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy; its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." - Winston Churchill

Tell the instructor he is one week behind on his lesson schedule and move on.Originally posted by Uncle Ted View PostMost the priest q lesson today was taken up with Davies talk. Somehow the instructor worked it into his lesson on justice and mercy.A man who views the world the same at fifty as he did at twenty has wasted thirty years of his life. - Mohammad Ali

Only one mention of Davies/HC from the pulpit today. Relatively mild comments about BYU (and by extension, the church) being seen as sticking to it's principles. No mention in SS or priesthood."You interns are like swallows. You shit all over my patients for six weeks and then fly off."
"Don't be sorry, it's not your fault. It's my fault for overestimating your competence."

Only seen it once, when I was younger. I asked my dad about it and he explained how objecting worked. Didn't get any of the specifics on that particular episode and I have never seen it since.Originally posted by Surfah View PostI don't know if it did. I am kicking myself right now. I have always wanted to witness that."You interns are like swallows. You shit all over my patients for six weeks and then fly off."

So the question then becomes, how much justice the atonement makes up for. Otherwise we are all screwed.Originally posted by il Padrino Ute View PostMercy can never outweigh justice, otherwise there is no justice.

Last time I checked the atonement was "infinite". So that answers that. I think not a few people will be surprised at the CK bunkmates.Originally posted by FMCoug View PostSo the question then becomes, how much justice the atonement makes up for. Otherwise we are all screwed.

A Security Forces policeman in our ward bore his testimony today. He had been stationed in Afghanistan since May and returned home this past week. He looked and sounded like a different person, about what you'd expect from one who had just returned home from war. He spoke of missing his wife and four children, receiving cards from ward members, relishing the rare experience of taking the sacrament on base, and fervently praying while listening to the shriek and standing on the other end of missile attacks. It was harrowing, touching and uplifting. Hearing his testimony today was worth ten years of attending church.
