Yes, there is a lot here, and unfortunately, we don't really teach what Alma was teaching in the Come Follow Me lesson, in my opinion. Instead of teaching that breaking the law of chastity is an abomination, like Alma and Paul taught, we teach about looking at pornography. I do believe that pornography can lead to the breaking of the law of chastity, that is not what Alma was teaching. If we have an honest discussion about the law of chastity and added in the proclamation on the family, I think we could learn a lot.
Thanks, Jim, good discussion. Lots to ponder.
