Something to consider . . . "Why do 54 percent of us say that "there is only one true way to interpret the teachings" of our religion, while 43 percent say there is more than one way? The question is simply inapplicable to Mormons. If you concentrate on the belief that only the general authorities are entitled to speak authoritatively, you give one answer; if you concentrate on the simple observation that in any class or quorum of Mormon adults you will find dozens of different views on many doctrines, including lots of folk doctrine and private speculations and conclusions, you'll give the other. Both answers are truthful. . ." Orson Scott Card in Mormon Times, August 13, 2009

Thanks, everyone. What a nice welcome. Canyon Riim is part of Millcreek Township which is located on the rim of the canyon leading into Parley's. Actually, I am originally from Illinois. I'm a transplant.

Thank you, Melissa23.

This is my first experience on this site and having just read through this entire thread, I was expecting something very different here. I'm not sure I'm where I want to be.

Hi everyone! I am new here. I haven't quite figured out how the site works yet but I'm learning. I hope to participate regularly. StuckinMiddle
