uuuhhhh.....
yeah.
Right.
Here's one.
A Baptist pastor, a Mormon bishop and an atheist were going fishing. When they were out on the lake in the boat, the Mormon bishop said, oh, shoot, forgot the worms. He got out and walked on the water to the shore, and got the worms and walked back out to the boat. The Baptist preacher said, Shoot, forgot the soda's, so he, too, got out and walked on the water and got the soda's, etc. The Atheist, not to be outdone, thought, hey, if they can do it, so can I. He gets out of the boat and promptly sinks to the bottom. As the other two watch, the Baptist preacher says to the bishop "Think we should tell the brother about the stepping stones?"
The bishop said, What stepping stones?

The responses to the above link seem mostly unfavorable to the premise. That indicates there seems to be a resistance to cease using the word yet, at least those who felt moved to answer. The choice to continue it's usage or not would have to come from the general authorities, not the membership. That's simply how the church is organized: from the top down. My turn: Sometimes a question will be posted in a certain fashion that indicates a 'side' has been chosen, and responses may be all over the board. I'm guilty on that regard, but I do not, or at least try not, to attempt to be 'inflammatory'. Being advesarial does not necessarily mean 'foe'. Answering post to preserve a point of view is equally difficult, and sometimes it's a chore to separate the poster from the post. Once again I'm as guilty as the next, but I try to at least research the 'other side of the coin', as the first side has usually been presented. I certainly never intended to become a vicious 'anti' and preceived as a villainous cretin, but I knew from the beginning this was not going to be a walk in the park. I've reread some of my past posts, and I can say that some were handled without too much sympathy or compassion; others I think are spot on. Learning to live with diverse attitudes is the beginning of acceptance. Without that, people will continue to run on emotions where reason could prevent a disaster. Like, Peace
