Subject: Some things people say make me cringe . . .
In reply to: Cricket 's message, "individuals can be cruel" on 08:39:26 09/28/06 Thu

A few years ago, there was a young man just leaving for his mission and gave a talk in sacrament meeting. In his talk, he said that the Latter-day Saints have the "corner on the truth." YIKES! It was all I could do not to look around the chapel to see if there were any non-member visitors.

I believe that a lot of the stupid things people say aren't necessarily intended to be so cruel, but there is no doubt that comments like that hurt and do no good in trying to bring people to your way of thinking.

My delivery isn't always so good, especially in political circles, something that I still work on.
