And I love it. We're a truth-gathering people, and the fact that we're not too proud to gather it from other religions and cultures is a very beautiful thing. (Which isn't to say that I think our religion doesn't have a fulness of the truth. But there are many other facets to the truth, different and equally valid perspectives, and we'd be fools to discount all the truths out there merely because we weren't the source.)

Michael Wilcox for a few years now, it's becoming abundantly clear to me that to be a good Mormon, one must become well-versed in the writings of an Anglican. One of life's little paradoxes.
