Seattle considers making it permissible to steal…if you really need to

The intent behind the law is to help the desperate. but this should bring to mind the proverb that “the compassion of the wicked is cruel” (Prov. 12:10b). This will drive businesses out of the poorest districts if they can’t afford the extra losses, or the cost of extra security, that would come with such a law. Their exist would means a loss of employment, and higher security would mean higher costs for goods for those who can least afford it. Good intentions, without good sense (Prov. 27:14), are not good.

The 7 habits in 7 minutes (some discernment required)

Stephen Covey’s The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is a very popular self-help book, and like many books of this type, there’s a lot of common sense to it.

This summary is actually better than the book, because in the book there’s more of a specifically Mormon theology discernible.

That’s a long way of saying, there’s common sense captured in this video that is well worth pondering…but it is valuable only in as far as it does line up with Scripture.

"Be Fruitful and Multiply" tour comes to Albertan April 19-22

Families are having fewer babies, and the world’s population is expected to peak and then decline later this century. The world isn’t prepared for the impact that this is going to have.
