The guy holds and has held the position of scoutmaster in his Ward. Since you are so good at focusing on the postive, focus on that for awhile.

And if she would, her opinion doesn't matter too much to me, because I feel strongly that God would agree with this. Oh...except for your last sentence. I'm not sure I'm totally on board with that. Last edited by ERCougar; 03-05-2008 at 02:59 PM. |

I hope this isn't the message you're really pulling from this talk. I'm guessing you're being facetious.

Maybe that's why I'm not offended by this talk. Anyone who uses it as ammo for judging is really just envious, and I can see that for what it is. Ugly. |

UtahDan, I don't know any LDS women that have careers outside of the usual traditional areas: teachers, nurses, etc.
So I can't comment on the way that they are treated. |

We have lds phyisicans, entertainers, business women, entrepreneurs, and professors, but ignore reality. Of course, we live in a progressive society and you live in Texas.

There is one sister in College Station that is a professor. But I didn't know her very well. The idea that masses of Mormon women are getting graduate education and pursuing careers at the expense of family is ridiculous, based on my experience. |

Now I will say that last sentence about "knowing the desires of your heart" is not the most innocuous way of putting it. But I'll choose to ignore that possible implication that "God knows why you're REALLY doing this and that it's all about you", as she didn't actually say that. |
