I live in very hostile conservative country and many members equate being a Republican with being a good church member. Your right in that being too aggressive means alienation but opportunity often comes my way. The scriptures support many liberal agendas. I spend lots of time in cultural preservation activity & in the politics of archaeology so often are ask by members why I do that. I think where the scriptures talk about gifts given to different individuals,,,I see this passion as a gift and a stewardship.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02407966152222494497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3605441624638211892.post-47721107645113077352008-01-11T08:19:00.000-07:002008-01-11T08:19:00.000-07:00Let me know if you find a way to gently offer a gr...Let me know if you find a way to gently offer a green perspective a church...the gospel clearly encourages environmental stewardship.L-D Sushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00845905845446101759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3605441624638211892.post-50506759265528127462008-01-10T22:20:00.000-07:002008-01-10T22:20:00.000-07:00nice to know others are out there with this perspe...nice to know others are out there with this perspective even if we get into trouble during priesthood meetingJeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02407966152222494497noreply@blogger.com
