Where Are The Links?
We have given this a lot of thought and have decided not to include a links page on this site. Here are the reasons why we feel this is an important decision.1.) There is so much meat in the book that it will take days, weeks, months or years for someone to absorb the information. Once they get their own remission of sins then the Spirit guides them, ideally.
"Grazing" thru the web can be a profound distraction that can discourage stopping at this true mother load of information. So to discourage such grazing and let those who come to this site know that this really is an incredibly important destination point that should be fully read and absorbed is my first and primary reason for not including links.
2.) The other related sites, for many, will be a far more mind bending, paradigm shifting experience, than ETMC that could cause more than a few people to just chuck the whole "ball of wax" including ETMC. In short, loading too much on them too fast, burns out the brain circuits and just causes total shutdowns or rejections. No one can handle too much change too quickly.
What I'm trying to say is that let's let the Spirit guide here with a gentle hand, rather than force feeding, which never works. It's going to be hard enough for someone to absorb the vital message of ETMC without risking totally blowing them out of the water with the other material.
Remember, the ADVERSARY hates this doctrine with every fiber of his being and from the time that Adam & Eve left the garden, he has successfully used every resource at his disposal to prevent this from being understood and taught. Even Joseph and the other early brethren did not fully appreciate the significance and importance of the mighty change. This is really the first time since the restoration that this doctrine has been taught with the clarity and effectiveness needed, yet, even with that it's very difficult for LDS folks to get the message. So the Adversary is going to use every means at his disposal to block people from getting the message of ETMC.
Let's not give the Adversary even the hint of an opportunity to lead them astray by diverting them once they get to this site.
For these reasons I really think it would be wise to not have any links to related sites here.
Sincerely,
Randall Klimt
