Comments on: The Spinozist Take from General Conference, October 2006, Day One http://www.spinozist.us/2006/09/30/the-spinozist-take-from-general-conference-october-2006-day-one/christian-y-cardall/ Exploratory deployment of two Mormon imperatives—“prove all things; hold fast that which is good,” and “awake and arouse your faculties, even to an experiment upon my words”—from perspectives unfamiliar: secular, scientific, humanistic, cultural (high and low), and maybe even—gasp!—feminist.

I guess President Hinckley would be disturbed by this, but maybe he would be happy to know that my husband makes far more money than I do. Hmmm…I have far more education than my husband.

Good job on summarizing everyone's talks so quickly. I was curious to see if someone would post something immediately following the session and you didn't disappoint! Point taken.

And Church callings were not the only thing mentioned that caused scheduling difficulties: he also mentioned his job and social commitments. But certainly this kind of situation could be the kind of thing Elder Ballard was cautioning against, and I don't think Elder Winkel's intent was to hold it up as an example to be particularly emulated. Actually I think there is greater potential tension between Elder Ballard's and Pres. Faust's talks, which were immediately juxtaposed.

Ballard admonished members to not spend so much time on church callings in a way that it negatively affects other important aspects of life (i.e. family) and Winkel had talked about how so very busy he was that the only time he could find to spend quality time with his son was at 5 in the morning? What's wrong with this picture? "Family. Isn't [5 a.m.] about time?" Do you think that Ballard’s comments are in conflict with Winkel’s?
