mikbone Posted November 28, 2023 Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) Funny yes. Also brilliant! Notice that Dwight made an intuitive leap that reflecting on his intuition, and then ACTING UPON it - changed his life.

JohnsonJones Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 I really haven't seen this show, but from what I've gathered over the years is that this character (Dwight) actually does some rather foolish things. Not sure how this fits into this context though. Good thought though. Sort of along the lines of...WWJD...but sort of approaching it from the opposite direction.

mikbone Posted November 29, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 (edited) WWJD is the next level. Seeking inspiration to help make a crucial decision. The Gift of the Holy Ghost. The Light of Christ is much more basic. A) Should I watch just a little pornography? Well it isn’t even pornography, its just in shape women in tights and well fitting clothing showing off their figures and posing for their iphones. It’s just innocent flirting with a person that is not my spouse. etc. B) I work hard for this corporation. They don’t compensate me for what I’m worth. They won’t notice if I carefully embezzle this money. I will use the money to bless my family and pay my tithing. Both of the above decision making processes took place leading to a Bishop Attorney and an High Council FBI agent receiving excommunication and prison time. Disgrace, pain, and their spouses and children suffering the consequences Would an idiot do that? I would not do that thing.

mikbone Posted November 29, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 I’m doing a kitchen remodel right now. It’s a nice house built in 1982. I have had to pay 6 figures in basic re-structuring stabilization because the original contractor slacked off and did some sub-par construction with inferior materials. He must have known it at the time. Sloppy plumbing and wiring as well. Save a buck now, and a few minutes of extra work here and there. I’ll be dead and gone when it collapses.
