|
| |
| As I approach 40 years in this world, I am increasingly impressed that I ought to try to write down my personal spiritual journey. I have not seen heaven with my physical eyes. And I have never to my knowledge taken leave of my physical body these 40 years. But I have read the personal words of many ancient and contemporary people who have. And something inside of me (since October 27 2003) undeniably recognizes these experiences as the highest truth. My focus in life is forever changed for the better as a result of the icing my recent awareness has been on the sweet cake of my life. I am extremely grateful to those who have received unusual dispensations of the mercy of Heaven for venturing to share their experiences!

| This is an experimental [[non-partisan, non-sectarian | Partisanship]] area dedicated to [[reverently | Reverence]] affirming in a [[global, interfaith | Partisanship]] way a reality of [[sacrificial love | Love]] [[transcendent | Transcendence]] of this world. This area is currently and tentatively titled [[God]] Works Wiki in the tentative belief that such a title will speak universally to all believers as to the truth that the transcendent, loving, purposeful [[omniscience | Omniscience ]] is revealed continually worldwide in personally surprising and undeniable [[experiences | Experience]]. The intended message is that the experiential affirmation that [[humans | Humans]] have a transcendent purpose and destiny that can only be realized within each individual heart and for humanity through seeking and practicing sacrificial love.

| |
| I am not [[partisan | Partisanship]] when I speak reverently of a just, loving, great God. I have chosen the least biased term available to me.
| |
|
| |
| == God in languages other than English==
| |
|
| |
| To demonstrate what I mean by speaking of God in non-partisan terms, I consider the following as fully satisfactory and equivalent translations that need no separate articles or explanation.
| |
|
| |
| * Allah = God in Arabic, the language of Islam
| |
| * Brahman = God in Hinduism and Buddhism
| |
|
| |
| == Nuanced expressions for God==
| |
|
| |
| I accept the reverent use of nuanced expressions for God that may deserve articles to explain the nuances they express. These nuances are widely appreciated, though we may not all agree on all of them.

| We are *reverent* by checking that our own hearts feel awe, or at least that our words express respect, when we speak of the subjects this web site affirms. We are especially careful to observe reverence when using terms that are not personally familiar to us, but are used by others in expressing Holy things.

| |
| We avoid splitting hairs about the meanings of words. We try to find in all words an acceptable nuance of meaning, and assume that nuance is the appropriate one.

| |
| This web site speaks directly and expressly to and about *humans* without denying the love of [[God]] toward and the presence of God in all things. We may not all conceived identically of what this means, but at this web site I am generous about [[words | Words]] and agree that the transcendence of God is great.
| |
|
| |
| I say ''humans'' instead of ''humanity'' because I desire to emphasize the personal nature of our individual transcendence through our individual sacrificial [[love | Love]].

| |
| At the age of 15 my heart was changed as I read the Book of Mormon prayerfully for the first time.
| |
|
| |
| Before then I generally complied submissively to what was expected of me as a son of Latter-day Saints. In fact I was zealous and judgemental. I would have been called a goody-goody by some children. And I was called Righteous-Kenighteous by some of my loved ones.
| |
|
| |
| But in that deep part of me nobody ever saw, I often wished I had been born and raised ignorant of the commandments of God. I remember distinctly in early adolescence wishing earnestly that I might have been born a heathen that I might have partied up good and enjoyed sin for a good long time, and then in my later years have heard the sober news, received baptism and forgiveness, and continued on to my glory in the eternal world.
| |
|
| |
| Those feelings and thoughts were obviously misinformed. Righteousness is its own reward, and sin its own punishment.
| |
|
| |
| The year I was 15, I studied ''The Book of Mormon'' in a high school Latter-day Saint youth seminary class. The teacher continually insisted we had to pray for a personal knowledge of the truth of our religion as we read ''The Book of Mormon''. I remember praying earnestly all through my reading of the book. And I remember that the day I closed the last page, in my heart I said, "Amen," in response to the prophetic benediction at the end. But at that point I was not conscious of the change that had taken place or was taking place in my heart. Within a few months I noticed written somewhere the phrase, "Conversion: The Divine Miracle". As I pondered that phrase and whatever I had found written with it, I realized what a miracle it was to take a heart and change it mightily so that, where it previously had desired to commit more sin, it now desired to commit no sin, but to do good continually.
| |
|
| |
| I before long came to the conclusion that I had experienced personally a great miracle, and that the miracle itself was the answer to my prayers. I never again rejoiced in any sin of mine, nor wished I had opportunity to sin more. Instead I praised God for every sin from which I was spared, and yearned within to be more holy.

| My Dad once said
| |
|
| |
| Perhaps forgiveness is like I read in a book on Kuna recently, "giving permission for the offender to have acted the way he/she did".

| The highest expression of love may be giving that gift that is hardest to give for the sake of the receiver, not knowing that thereby the giver is eternally changed for the better! (kdh)

| Howard Storm's experience is a great prototype of death experiences as related to LDS belief. It is heavily reminiscent of Alma II's experience and of Lehi's dream. Storm was invited by spirits into a dark and dreary waste where he wandered for many hours (or weeks) until he came to an abyss where he was racked and tormented until his mind caught hold on the thought of a Savior and called out for Jesus to have mercy on him. Then what light did he behold, and he was filled with joy as exquisite as was his pain.
| |
|
| |
| On June 1, 1985, 38 year old Howard Storm, an atheist, found himself in the spirit overlooking his body in a hospital room. Anger and frustration overcame him. "This is crazy! I can’t be standing here looking down at myself. That’s not possible," he told himself.

| On the morning of Sunday 16 January 2005, before I awoke, I dreamed that I was in a family setting teaching a lesson as in a Family Home Evening. While I shared my lesson, the children started singing, and I thought that soon angels joined with them in singing of the love of the Father in Heaven. When I awoke I tried to write down the song they were singing. I translate it something like this:
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| We love our Father, he loves us forever.
| |
| No sadness or danger will make us afraid.
| |
| Alelluia the children were singing
| |
| With angels around them arrayed.
| |
|
| |
| Or
| |
|
| |
| We have a father who loves us forever.
| |
| No sadness or danger will make us afraid.
| |
| Aleluia, the the little children were singing
| |
| With angels around them arrayed.
| |
|
| |
| A Song
| |
|
| |
| One night I lay asleep; I dreamed a dream most heavenly.
| |
| Around me my children gathered, glowing with love.
| |
| And as I taught them, in answer came a melody,
| |
| And soon they were joined by the angels above.
| |
|
| |
| A-a alleluia. A-a alleluia. The little children were singing with love.
| |
| A-a alleluia. A-a alleluia. A song to their Father above.
| |
|
| |
| We have a Father who loves us forever.
| |
| No sadness or danger will make us afraid.
| |
| For we are his children; we love Him forever,
| |
| in warm light He holds us; our strong house He made.
| |
|
| |
| Alleluia. The little children were singing. Raising a song to their Father above.
| |
| Alleluia. Angelic answers were ringing. A witness of heavenly love.

| Lehi left (fled) Jerusalem with his family in 600 B.C. (1 Nephi 2:4, 19:8), "came down by the borders near the shore of the Red Sea", and travelled along the coast of the Red Sea. After travelling three days (240 to 300 km) in the wilderness, he made camp in a valley by a running stream that emptied continually into the beginning of the Red Sea (likely Wadi Tayyib al-Ism, 115 km miles by trail from Aqaba [[Google Map|http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&t=k&ll=28.562964,34.809494&spn=0.052468,0.045662&om=1]] or below).
| |
|
| |
| Is the anomaly on the coast at left indicative of flow at the time of photograph?
| |
|
| |
| [[Wadi Tayyib al-Ism 2007 photo showing vegetation at right and mouth at left|http://www.hawsedc.com/wadi.jpg]])
| |
|
| |
| While they tarried at their wilderness camp, the sons of the family returned to Jerusalem twice for important things they would need (scripture--Laban's Brass Plates--in chapters 3 through 6 and wives--Ishmael's daughters--in chapter 7), gathered provisions for a long journey (chapter 8), and received further instructions from heaven (chapters 8 through 16).
| |
|
| |
| Finally one night at the camp (one wonders just how many weeks or months they tarried there), the voice of the Lord told Lehi to strike camp the next morning (16:9). The next morning, Lehi discovered "a round ball of curious workmanship", "of fine brass", at the door of his tent, with two spindles inside it, and "the one" (or was it "they" one) "pointed the way" to go in the wilderness. One student has conjectured that the two spindles bore testimony of each other. If they were at odds (or perpendicular), the ball was not functional due to a lack of faith. If they were as one pointing the way (parallel and perfectly overlaid), the ball was functional. (Is there not a type in this thing?)
| |
|
| |
| They packed up all, crossed the river of water, which they had christened the River of Laman, and travelled south-southeast four days to a second camp along the Red Sea coast, which they called Shazer, and where they hunted animals for food.
| |
|
| |
| After the camp at Shazer they continued south-southeast many more days along the Red Sea coast, hunting along the way, and being led to oases by "the directions of the ball", until they made a third Red Sea camp.
| |
|
| |
| At their third camp, where they had stopped to rest and get more food, Nephi broke his steel bow on the first major hunt, and the hunting party returned with no food. (Note that this was likely a fine wooden bow with a steel reinforcing band or spring on its tensile or outer side.) Nephi's brothers were upset at him for breaking his bow, and a general spirit of grumbling overtook the fatigued and hungry company. After trial, tutoring, and repentance, the family got food and resumed their journey south-southeast again for many days.
| |
|
| |
| Ishmael, the father-in-law of Lehi's sons, died (16:34). He was buried at Nahom (likely the Nehem a few dozen miles north of modern Sana'a, the capital of Yemen [[Google Map|http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&t=k&spn=0.1,0.1&ll=16.27,44.53]]), and a renewed spirit of grumbling pervaded the group. At this point they wanted to go back to Jerusalem, and discussed killing Lehi and Nephi. But the voice of the Lord spoke to the grumblers and chastened them. They repented (chapter 16) and took their journey inland, nearly eastward (17:1) (likely at the trade route branch in the Jawf valley (Wadi Jawf) just a few miles from Nehem).
| |
|
| |
| For eight years they sojourned in the deserts of modern Yemen, Oman, and perhaps Saudia Arabia. (17:4) The Lord kept them from making much fire, and they lived on raw meat. (17:2,12) The Lord said he would make the raw meat sweet to them and would be their light in the wilderness, and they would know He had led them through.
| |
|
| |
| At last they came to a beautiful land they called Bountiful (likely Wadi Sayq/Khor Kharfot in Oman [[Google Map|http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&t=k&spn=0.1,0.1&ll=16.67,53.15]]), where they rejoiced, rested, and prepared to travel across the sea to their promised land.

| "On journeys lasting for several weeks, camels cover a distance of approximately 30 to 40 km per day. On shorter journeys, lasting less than a week, they cover 80 to 100 km per day. In exceptional circumstances, bulls are able to walk more than 120 km in a single day, provided that they have a whole day to rest afterwards." http://www.fao.org/ag/aga/agap/frg/feedback/war/war92/x1700t05.htm

| ==About Gospel Hobbies==
| |
|
| |
| At a May 1, 2005 LDS Church Educational System Fireside for Young Adults, Elder Dallin H. Oaks of the LDS Quorum of the Twelve Apostles said the following:
| |
|
| |
| "In a memorable message given at the 1971 October conference, Elder Boyd K. Packer likened the fulness of the gospel to a piano keyboard. He reminded us that a person could be 'attracted by a single key,' such as a doctrine they want to hear 'played over and over again.' He explained:
| |
|
| |
| 'Some members of the Church who should know better pick out a hobby key or two and tap them incessantly. . . . They lose track that there is a fulness of the gospel, . . . ~[[which they reject]] in preference to a favorite note. This becomes exaggerated and distorted, leading them away into apostasy' (Teach Ye Diligently ~[[1975]], 44).
| |
|
| |
| We could say of such persons, as the Lord said of the members of the Shaker sect, 'that they desire to know the truth in part, but not all' (D&C 49:2). And so, I say, beware of the hobby key. If you tap one key to the exclusion or serious detriment of the full harmony of the gospel keyboard, you are deviating from the recommended tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime."
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| ==My Gospel Hobbies==
| |
| I was first startled by the concept of Gospel Hobbies when as a teenager I read the Gospel Hobbies entry in Elder Bruce R. ~McConkie's Mormon Doctrine. Being a naturally energetic and exuberant person, I have since often asked myself if I am a gospel hobbyist. As an answer, I have decided to make a list of the piano keys I love to play. I have chosen to list those areas that I pursue or have pursued with such zeal that any one might be individually identified as my gospel hobby.
| |
|
| |
| Music:
| |
| I love beautiful music. I sing at the top of my lungs at home, in my car, at church, in choir, and in the wilderness. I have directed choirs. I have written a hymn. I hold choir practice in the summer and on Fast Sunday (an LDS thing) when allowed. I flail my arms like a mad man when I direct. And I encourage my children to be musical.
| |
|
| |
| Scouting:
| |
| I am (when asked to be) a zealous Scouter. I take "my boys" on long explores and arduous treks. I magnify the spirit of the advancement requirements. I exemplify and expect a full uniform. I believe in the safety and spirit rules; no jumping off cliffs over 6 feet high, no hazing or initiations, and tour permits for every excursion. I long for a fully realized Patrol Method in the LDS church. I fancy that I have the vision of the program.
| |
|
| |
| The Word of Wisdom:
| |
| I am somewhat a vegetarian or possibly at times a vegan, and caffeinated soft drinks are almost taboo to me. I have studied the Word of Wisdom word by word for clues to dietary recommendations. I believe it states that the Lord asks us to use all domestic mammal and poultry flesh sparingly, and furthermore He is pleased when we abstain entirely during times of abundance in the warm seasons. I believe it states that the Lord has made wild mammals for the use of man only in times of famine or excess of hunger.
| |
|
| |
| Marriage:
| |
| I abhor divorce. I may go so far as to say I do not believe in divorce. I interpret Malachi as having the Lord say as much himself (2:16). And Jesus clearly taught in the Sermon on the Mount that divorce is a grave mistake. As an allowance, I do believe in separation for a minute, a day, a week, or a decade. Staying true to the spouse of your youth is one of the supreme tests of life.
| |
|
| |
| Genealogy:
| |
| I have taken a university course from a certified genealogy enthusiast. I have bugged my kin crazy about genealogy. I have posted genealogy web information and maintained a family e-mail genealogy work group since before the web was cool. I have assisted in the development of the Open Source phpGedView software.
| |
|
| |
| Church History:
| |
| I have read and wrestled with a lot of provocative subjects and learned holy lessons from them. I've read Juanita Brooks's ''Mountain Meadows Massacre'', John D. Lee's Last Testimony, Lavina Fielding Anderson's edition of ''Lucy's Book'' (The History of Joseph Smith by Lucy Mack Smith).
| |
|
| |
| Scriptures and the Book of Mormon:
| |
| I have read the Book of Mormon around two dozen times. Passages and concepts from it slip into my daily communications and thoughts. I have read every word of the Holy Bible at least once, and much of the New Testament repeated times. I compare things I read and hear to scriptural passages and sayings. I believe that scriptural grounding is one form of spiritual insurance.
| |
|
| |
| Book of Mormon Studies:
| |
| I am enthused about reformed Egyptian, Lehi's wilderness journey, a Mesoamerican geography model, the Three (and other) Witnesses of the Golden Plates, and the visits of Moroni to Joseph Smith and his recovery of the plates. I believe the Book of Mormon is not, nor purports to be, perfect, but is the testimony of a real people concerning the gospel of Jesus Christ.
| |
|
| |
| Life After Death and Modern Revelation:
| |
| I have read dozens of accounts of modern heavenly experiences from people of all faiths. My Amazon.com wish list is full of books on Near Death Experiences and the spiritual world. I say that my life and outlook are changed forever because of personal insights the Holy Spirit has borne to me while I have partaken of this literature. I believe the earth is full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the seas, and that the spirit of the Lord is being poured out on all flesh, with old men dreaming dreams and young men seeing visions
| |
|
| |
| Polygamy (formerly):
| |
| I've testified before the Arizona State Senate Judiciary committee in favor of a Child Bigamy Bill to aid enforcement against Colorado City ills. I've (regrettably) acted impetuously to involve friends and relatives questionably in a certain case of runaways from Colorado City. I've been in contact with a group (including Flora Jessop) working behind the scenes to shine the light of public scrutiny on Colorado City ills.
| |
|
| |
| Pacifism:
| |
| I am a pacifist in the tradition of the Book of Mormon's Abinadi, Alma the First, Alma the Second, and the people of Ammon (Anti Nephi Lehis). In the tradition of LDS Doctrine and Covenants 121:34-46 I believe I am diametrically opposed to the holiness that is in God when I (often) use control, dominion, or compulsion in any degree to (futilly attempt to) enforce any purpose on any brother or sister. I not only believe I am wrong, but I believe I am doomed to failure because such influence ''cannot'' be maintained by such methods.
| |
|
| |
| Forgiveness:
| |
| I believe in extending total, absolute, and endless forgiveness in the similitude of the Heavenly Father. In the words of the Book of Mormon, "To any doth he say depart? No." A forgiving person trusts fully that in the end all things will be made right (fair), and that "all things will work together to them that love God." If I don't let go and forgive, I keep only myself from becoming Godly.
| |
|
| |
| Love:
| |
| I believe God is Love, which is the greatest of all. I might say I believe "all you need is love." And that is true. But be careful. What is love? I believe that the eternal meaning of the simple word "love" can only be revealed individually to the heart of each free soul by ever-refining, whole-hearted worship. Ask and ye shall receive; seek and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened unto you. Pray unto the Father with all the energy of heart that ye may be filled with this love, which He hath bestowed upon all who are true followers of His son Jesus Christ. For if ye have not the pure love of Christ, ye are nothing. Nothing.
| |
|
| |
| I will refrain from interpreting the above. But I will observe that I have identified exuberance as a trait of mine that can be turned for good or for bad.
| |
|
| |
| ==About Moderation==
| |
| In the fireside address quoted above, Elder Oaks said, "...I need to issue a caution. The principle I have espoused, that we should pursue steady dedication and avoid frenzied excesses, could be understood as implying that we should have 'moderation in all things.' Not so. The Savior has commanded us to serve with all our 'heart, might, mind and strength' (D&C 4:2), to 'seek . . . earnestly the riches of eternity' (D&C 68:31), and to be 'valiant in the testimony of Jesus' (D&C 76:79). He has also told us that if we are lukewarm, He will spue us out of His mouth (see Revelation 3:16)."

| As I approach 40 years in this world, I am increasingly impressed that I ought to try to write down my personal spiritual journey. I have read the personal words of many ancient and contemporary people who have viewed heaven. And I myself have seen and heard unspeakable things. Something inside of me (since October 27 2003) undeniably recognizes these experiences as the highest truth. My focus in life is forever changed for the better as a result of the icing my recent awareness has been on the sweet cake of my life. I am extremely grateful to those who have received unusual dispensations of the mercy of Heaven for venturing to share their experiences, and pray that I may share according to the Holy Spirit!

| '''Fasting''' was practiced anciently and continues currently among the world religions whose adherents comprise most of the world's population.
| |
|
| |
| In Christianity, fasting is practiced as abstinence from certain foods or practices at certain times in Catholicism. It is practiced as a monthly 24-hour period of zero intake in my own heritage, LDS Mormonism. In the mainline Protestant half of Christianity, fasting is not widely taught or practiced.
| |
|
| |
| In Islam, fasting is practiced as zero intake during daylight hours throughout the month of Ramadan.
| |
|
| |
| In Hinduism, I understand fasting is practiced.
| |
|
| |
| My first experiences and awareness of fasting came as a boy younger than eight when my parents asked me to skip breakfast and not eat until after sacrament meeting (around noon) on the monthly LDS Fast Sunday. When I was around 12, I decided to attempt to fast 2 meals (24 hours). At my first attempts I experienced nausea and didn't complete the fast. But before too many months I was fasting 24-hours each month in the LDS style, trying to choose a spiritual purpose and pray over it during the fast. In the LDS style, I would also specifically pray
| |
| to begin and end the fast.
| |
|
| |
| When I left the home of my parents, I began to follow the LDS custom of giving a fast offering for the poor in conjunction with my monthly fasts. At about this age (around 18 to 25 years old) I began to sometimes feel my fasting was too commonplace, and I wondered if perhaps there ought to be more to it. I considered fasting longer. I may have tried fasting a bit longer a time or two, but I generally decided I needed to simply dedicate myself more to prayer during my fasts.
| |
|
| |
| Fasting brought me many blessings as a young man. I knew by repeated and common experience that the spirit me could withstand and overcome flesh appetite. I at times experienced higher spiritual attunement and vision through 24-hour LDS fasting. And I had the opportunity to remember and consider the poor monthly.
| |
|
| |
| I was aware from my childhood of the 40-day fast of Jesus, and of his teaching to wash and anoint "when you fast" so that you won't "appear to men to fast". I sometimes wondered, in the context of my LDS tradition of fasting as zero intake, what exactly Jesus did for 40 days. I was aware that he was in the desert, and I didn't think the Son of God probably had zero intake for 40 days. Since I didn't have additional information, I surmised that perhaps he either ate once a day or drank water during the fast. As for his teaching about washing and anointing, it didn't really occur to me that I was without any specific understanding of what he meant.
| |
|
| |
| In my late 30's, I experienced significant spiritual awakening amid significant life difficulties. I began to seek and find answers to the questions I had always had about ancient fasting. I began to practice some of the principles I learned. For my own clarity and that of my people, the Latter-day Saints, I began to think of fasting in terms of the Spirit of Fasting, LDS fasting, and Ancient Fasting. Here is a summary of what I learned:
| |
|
| |
| ==The Spirit of Fasting==
| |
|
| |
| 1.1. The Spirit of Fasting is simply the spirit of denying flesh appetites. Any denial of any flesh appetite for any period of time observes the Spirit of Fasting and accrues heavenly blessings.
| |
|
| |
| 1.2. Like all things, the Spirit of Fasting is subject to the Spirit of Love as expressed by the Golden Rule and the Sermon on the Mount.
| |
|
| |
| 1.3. All accountable people old and young, rich and poor, male and female, well and sick may be blessed by observing the Spirit of Fasting.
| |
|
| |
| 1.4. Various religions that codify the Spirit of Fasting do so to the blessing of their adherents. Most of the major world religions (Christianity, Islam, Hinduism equal 67% of world ) except for Mainline Christian Protestants codify the Spirit of Fasting in some way.
| |
|
| |
| ==LDS Fasting==
| |
|
| |
| 2.1. An LDS fast consists of a monthly 24-hour total abstinence from intake.
| |
|
| |
| 2.2. To avoid constipation and extreme thirst in an LDS Fast, it helps to hydrate very well previous to the last pre-fast meal, hydrate very well previous to the fast breaking meal, and go light on both those meals.
| |
|
| |
| 2.3. An LDS fast is a good way to observe the Spirit of Fasting in a minimally disruptive, maximally fool-proof, and maximally intense way. If I were the president of an authoritarian world-wide church (responsible and legally liable), I might codify the LDS fast.
| |
|
| |
| 2.4. An LDS fast should NOT be extended more than 24 hours.
| |
|
| |
| ==Ancient Fasting==
| |
|
| |
| 3.1. An Ancient Fast is my name for a 40-day or less (I believe there are reasons to call 20 days a minimum) abstinence from all intake other than water. After 31 years of wondering, I finally have settled my mind about this and can now see that the scriptures and ancients indicate this in many ways.
| |
|
| |
| 3.2. An Ancient Fast brings blessings in addition to an LDS Fast, including additional ponderings, additional appetite denial, additional health, additional vision and awareness of the mortal condition, and additional compassion.
| |
|
| |
| 3.3. An Ancient Fast is an art that must be understood and approached properly to be a safe blessing. There are gallons of water to drink, enemas to take, rest to observe, washing and anointing to do, and bodily conditions to expect.
| |
|
| |
| 3.4. Hunger and deprivation are not part of an Ancient Fast. The body is a temple of the Holy Spirit.
| |
|
| |
| ==My Fasting Plans==
| |
|
| |
| As I continue to fast, I am intending to keep in mind the following safety rules so that my fasting glorifies the Father rather than becoming an embarrassment:
| |
|
| |
| 4.1. No LDS fasting over 24 hours. Water is essential to life.
| |
|
| |
| 4.2. No Ancient fasting over 40 days.
| |
|
| |
| 4.3. No sleep deprivation while fasting. Observe regular bedtime and adequate sleep.
| |
|
| |
| 4.4. No gluttony in association with fasting. Tapering intake is kind to the body.
| |
|
| |
| 4.5. Drink gallons of water with electrolytes. I'm not sure yet what I will do for electrolytes in a long fast, whether lemons, salt, or spring water.
| |
|
| |
| 4.5. Clean my large intestine with enemas, psyllium husk or other method. Entering fasting constipated is toxic.
| |
|
| |
| 4.6. Keep quiet about fasting and wash (toxic smells) and anoint (dry skin) per Jesus. Glorify the Father instead of alarming or impressing people.
| |
|
| |
| 4.6. Do good per Isaiah 58:6-7. Feed the hungry, clothe the naked, shelter the homeless, liberate the captive, be there for my family.
| |

| |
| Science and Faith are complementary important elements of all Religions, secular or spiritual. Seeking minds practice Faith and Science continually to discover ever more true Religion, whether secular or spiritual.
| |
|
| |
| ==Science==
| |
|
| |
| Science is knowledge. Or more usefully, the Scientific Method is the process of gaining knowledge, whether secular or spiritual.
| |
|
| |
| I tell my children that "Science is not what you read in a book; it is what you do in a lab." Again, science is not what you read, it is what you do.
| |
|
| |
| True science is the pure knowledge of a single piece of fact, or the act of performing a personal experiment to arrive at that knowledge. True science is accessible and repeatable, though the price may be higher than the average person is willing or able to pay. If a person considers the price of knowledge, or science, too great for immediate payment, she may reject the associated Religion, whether secular or spiritual, or she may adopt an interim policy of Faith.
| |
|
| |
| ==Faith==
| |
|
| |
| Faith is a working belief in a hypothesis. By means of the Scientific Method, faith is transcended or discarded as a hypothesis (secular or spiritual) is either shown to be a fact or a fallacy (useful or unuseful).
| |
|
| |
| Through faith people are able to take advantage of useful facts (secular or spiritual) about whose truth they have no personal knowledge. There are innumerable facts about which people can become aware, but about which people have no time or resources to become knowledgeable. If the price of a piece of knowledge is beyond the will or ability of a person, the person has no choice but to proceed on faith or reject the information. Because of this vast universe of unknown facts, it would be very difficult to accomplish anything at all in the world without proceeding very often on faith. Rejecting information as a standard operating procedure would be a very poor and ineffective approach to life at the start. Acting on informed faith is the standard and effective approach to living.
| |
|
| |
| Faith by reasoning people is always partially informed to some degree. We use the term Blind Faith to express faith that is particularly uninformed, or that appears irrational. What an observer calls Blind Faith may be irrational or may be in fact rationally, but unusually scantily, informed. People may act rationally on what we call Blind Faith because they have what they believe is good reason to trust some source. If Jesus, my father, or Albert Einstein has a reputation for giving a certain type of good information, I may rationally have faith in his word, and that might be termed Blind Faith, though somewhat well informed.
| |
|
| |
| ==Science and Faith==
| |
|
| |
| When a hypothesis of faith proves true or false, useful or unuseful, it ceases to become a hypothesis and becomes either discarded or becomes a piece of experiential knowledge, fact, or theory. Thus faith is a prelude to science (secular or spiritual). And through an act of science (secular or spiritual), faith in a particular hypothesis is discarded. We may accurately say then that faith and science are complementary, science being the natural validator of faith.
| |
|
| |
| ==Religion==
| |
|
| |
| Religion (secular or spiritual) is an operating system for life that consists of a mishmash of science and faith. All people have a religion. As people mature in a religion, their religion increases in personally and scientifically proven aspects of knowledge as it decreases in the number of aspects relying on faith. Because of the building body of personal knowledge supporting the remaining aspects of faith in mature people, their remaining faith is more rational, less blind, and more effective or powerful. They are at the same time increasingly skilled scientists and increasingly confident in their faith.
| |
|
| |
| Religionists who fail to use science (who stay out of the lab and never test their faith with experiments) never mature in their religion (secular or spiritual). They remain textbook religionists, dogmatically holding to the assertions of their masters. Advanced non-scientific religionists (secular or spiritual) may become expert logicians who are able to perform gymnastic feats with the dogma of religions (secular or spiritual). They may excel at showing how the assertions of their masters are logically consistent and beautiful. But non-scientific religionists never become masters themselves of their religion (secular or spiritual).
| |
|
| |
| ==Science and Religion==
| |
|
| |
| It is common to speak of Science and Religion as opposites. But this line of thinking leads to error. I propose below a more consistent way to conceive and speak
| |
|
| |
| * Religion = World View. An all-encompassing personal approach to life. Everybody has a world view or religion.
| |
| * Faith = Action based on belief in the unknown aspects of a person's world view or religion. Everybody practices faith in at least some aspects of their religion (secular or spiritual).
| |
| * Science = The Scientific Method. A repeatable, accessible experiment leading to personal knowledge. It is wise to practice science experiments to supercede faith with direct knowledge.
| |
|
| |
| Thus an inexperienced disciple of a physicist or a biologist is every bit as much the religionist as the inexperienced disciple of a holy man. And a holy man is every bit as much a scientist as a renowned physicist or biologist.

You can say, "I will be free when I am rich," "I will be free when I leave my parents or wife," or "I will be free when I die." But the world and the eternites are full of wealthy, single, and disembodied captives. In this world and in eternity, you will only be free the moment you let go of the thing that holds you captive.

| 5. Bruce R. ~McConkie said the Second Coming of the Lord is within the lifetime of every faithful Saint. And perhaps, say I, it is just beyond the lifetime of every living soul. I pray it is not that last day that forces me to reliquish claim on all things worldly. I pray I attain the Kingdom of God by my own free will while the day lasts. (2006-08-07)

| This paper outlines the organization of the Care For Life Family Preservation Program Custom Graphing Application.
| |
|
| |
| ==Executive Summary==
| |
| The Care For Life Family Preservation Program needs a custom graphing application that makes it easy and inviting to focus on areas of need, areas of success, and areas of improvement across a wide variety of combinations of dimensions and variables. The application needs to show trends and relationships in an intuitive way.
| |
|
| |
| ==Prototype==
| |
| Stock charting applications are well-developed examples of what the CFL FPP Custom Graphing Application might become. The ~MarketWatch ~BigCharts Interactive Charts application at http://bigcharts.marketwatch.com/intchart/frames/frames.asp is the leading prototype candidate.
| |
|
| |
| The ~BigCharts Interactive Charting application is layed out in two frames including a right-side menu frame and a left side (main) charting frame. The right-side menu frame has a few categories of options that are collapsed into a small list, but can expand into a lengthy array of drop-down menus. There is at the top a single "Draw Chart" button. There are "Store Chart Settings" and "Clear Chart Settings" buttons at the bottom.
| |
|
| |
| ==FPP Graphing Concepts==
| |
| The FPP Custom Graphing Application might cobble together presentations on the fly, juggling dexterously order and hierarchy needs on a page, by using the logical building block concepts of *dimension* and *quantity*.
| |
|
| |
| Then once the basic outline of a page is established, there are for each logical piece of a page (each object on a page) attributes or properties that must be set once the type of the piece (the object) is known. The basic properties of each building block (object) are given below with the object.
| |
|
| |
| ===Dimension===
| |
| Dimensions are the logical groupings we use to give hierarchy and meaning to graphs. There are two major types of dimensions we are interesting in: *program dimension* and *presentation dimension*.
| |
|
| |
| We begin with some dimensions to limit the scope of a page, add others to further limit the scope of a graph or graphs on the page, others to even further limit the scope of a graph item or items, and finally others to give exact meaning to a data point. For example, we may say a *page* is about Orphan Prevalence, include a comparative *graph* each for 2 zones of a community (*population*), on each graph include bars or lines (*series*) with the *x axis* representing a progression of Care For Life investment (*intervention time*), on which we plot the *y axis* value of orphan prevalence (*demographic measurement*) trend along with the *y axis* value of the trend for some intervention strategy (*intervention measurement*).
| |
|
| |
| From the example just given we can extract basic program and presentation dimensions that must be handled independently by the FPP Custom Graphing Application.
| |
|
| |
| ====Program dimensions====
| |
|
| |
| * population (community, zone, family, person or combination)
| |
| * intervention time (initial, progress, final, or series)
| |
| * demographic measurement (interview record, appraisal record)
| |
| * intervention measurement (goal setting record, goal follow-up record, attendance record, expense record)
| |
|
| |
| Other dimensions that might be of lesser or no interest include:
| |
|
| |
| * world time (year, month, day, etc.)
| |
|
| |
| ===Presentation dimensions===
| |
|
| |
| * page (sizes, colors, fonts, titles, background image)
| |
| * graph (sizes, colors, fonts, titles, background image)
| |
| * x axis (scale, colors fonts, titles, legends)
| |
| * y axis (scale, colors fonts, titles, legends)
| |
| * series (type, sizes, colors, fonts, labels)
| |
|
| |
| ===Quantity===
| |
| Any dimension may be used any number of times on a page. So we add the concept of quantity to dimension to compete our framework for the logical layout of a page.

| |
|
| |
| I had a dream last night of which I remember many segments. It took place in Texas. One of the segments strengthened my faith. I share that segment below:
| |
|
| |
| There was a movie or a play we attended. It had obscenities, and the entire audience walked out en masse, which heartened me to see. Then the thought occured to me we might ask for a refund. I was pricked in my heart and ashamed, because I knew our Lord had commanded not to seek riches. But I waved my wallet and went to the box office window. I must have received the refund, though that was not in the dream, because the next thing I knew I was flying over all the people.
| |
|
| |
| But in the next scene I had a hard time flying. It seems I was weighed down by something. I didn't realize it at the time, but later in the dream I found out what it was (and in the telling to you I am seeing the connection).
| |
|

| In the next scene I was off to the west of the crowd, and I had one of my boots filled with gold coins. I was not able to fly at all. Some young ruffians approached, presumably to steal the coins. I lay down on the ground and cried aloud, "O, Lord God, bless these boys that they may .... " and I don't remember the rest of the prayer. It was either a plea that they remember their mothers or have mercy on an old man, or remember their Holy Father. In any case, the boys stopped molesting me. It later occurred to me I should have either let them dig in my boot for "whatever you need" or offer them from my boot.

| A lady saw what had happened and apparently saw something miraculous in it. She started to call to the people to jubilate about the miracle, when I begged her to consider praying first before spreading the word abroad.
| |
|
| |
| She commenced (to my amazement) to have a Texas Baptist style prayer service with the people right there (and I considered how when the fervor of worship comes over the people they miss the mark so lovingly and sweetly), complete with gospel singing in which I joined.

| This story is a confession, a catharsis, a resolution, and perhaps a parable.

| The Boy Scouts of America has a National Honor Society called the Order of the Arrow. Scouts are elected to the Order by their fellow unit members, following approval by the adult leader.
| |
|
| |
| "The induction ceremony, called the Ordeal, is the first step toward full membership. During the experience, candidates maintain silence, receive small amounts of food, work on camp improvement projects, and are required to sleep alone, apart from other campers. The entire experience is designed to teach significant values." (OA Basics from OA web site)
| |
|
| |
| I was elected to the Order of the Arrow. I must admit that in my immaturity this gratified my pride. I experienced the Ordeal after a fashion (my adult leader at the Ordeal said that our camp improvement project required us to talk, so we didn't maintain silence so much). I slept alone, suffering through a chilly night outdoors after wetting my sleeping bag and attempting to wash up in the closest water I could find in the dark. I suffered at the scant food. After a year or more of activity in my local Order of the Arrow chapter, I accepted the assignment to act as an Elangomat for another Ordeal.
| |
|
| |
| Elangomat means "Friend". Elangomat "shares in the hardships of the candidates, and their silence." I arrived at Camp Geronimo, received a Elangomat information leaflet, and was sent to suffer with a group of initiates. I recall being silent like them perhaps; I'm not sure. But I also recall excusing myself at mealtimes, running through the woods to the mess hall, and loading up on food. Somewhere in the mix of my own immaturity, my never having seen an example of an Elangomat, my having received no personal training, and my incomplete understanding or reading of my little instruction leaflet, my Elangomat service became a sham. I was not a repeat initiate, willingly condescending to suffering with new candidates. Rather I was cardboard figure, having a form of Friendship, but denying the power thereof. I was pretending to suffer and serve while claiming the privilege of status and station.
| |
|
| |
| Perhaps now that I am forty I am old enough to be a true Elangomat.
