And if Elder Oaks is saying what God wants to be said, what then?
There in lies the rub: If.
This immature mockery of Elder Oaks is less than productive. If you disagree, have a mature discussion about it. This looks more like the response of an internet troll and not the proprietor of a blog with the key word ‘rational’…
I agree. Normally I see Miguel Barker as a good hearted seeker of truth who is respectful even in disagreement and thoughtful. This post is juvenile mockery. While I understand the frustration and some probably very personal feelings about the talk, this feels neither rational nor productive.
