Related to the ‘am I better for suffering’ section of the pod: Opinion | A man at work, A half century of George Will

https://wapo.st/4g7HdgJ

Quote: “In “The Roosevelts,” George, the conservative thinker, found empathy at the core of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal. “Polio gave FDR the gift of empathy.  There was no suffering that he could not in some sense relate to,” George explained. “Just as the irons were clapped on his legs, the steel entered his soul by having to fight through the constant pain of therapy that was unforgiving in its demands and not very fulfilling in its success.””

The Religious Affiliation of Director George Lucas

https://web.archive.org/web/20050612235541/http://www.adherents.com/people/pl/George_Lucas.html

But hey, there is an LDS connection to George Lucas!  From the article:

“Lucas eventually came to state that his religion was "Buddhist Methodist." Gary Kurtz, a Latter-day Saint who had studied Comparative Religion extensively in college and on his own, was pivotal in introducing Lucas to Eastern religions (particularly Buddhism) and Native American religion, and discussing with Lucas how best to improve "Star Wars" by giving it a believable but sufficiently universal religious underpinning. Kurtz was the producer of "Star Wars" and "The Empire Strikes Back" and also did some work on the "Star Wars" screenplay.”

Face in Hat: 1.10 Translation and the Book of Abraham

https://faceinhat.podbean.com/e/episode-10-translation-and-the-book-of-abraham/

In 1st Corinthians, Paul teaches about protecting the weak ones by avoiding the appearance of evil.  Is this applicable to online discourse?  Should we avoid the musty corners of church history or should we investigate?  Is there harm in causing doubt, or will that doubt come anyway and is best met head on, guide in hand?  We want to frankly look at these questions. Join us, and let us know your thoughts!
