  %IDOL TABOO LIFE STYLE SCRIPTURE EXPERIENCE LEARN 920717

     There are some experiences which are so evil that any
persons  who  have  had those experiences  are  inherently
evil;   and  any  confessions by them of having  had those
experiences are good  grounds for us to reject and totally
avoid any persons who confesses to having had such totally
evil experiences.

     We  must  disassociate  ourselves totally  from  such
people.   Just associating with such people is exceedingly
dangerous;   so  we must not talk with,   visit with,   or
converse  with  them:   for if we were to do so  we  might
change our mind about how evil they are,  and be converted
from our present state of grace.

     We  know  which  experiences  are  good  grounds  for
totally rejecting  evil  people,  because holy  scriptures
tells us.

     We have no need for informative confessions from such
people regarding what the nature of their experiences have
been, or what the natural consequences of the  experiences
have been; for holy scripture is the one and only adequate
ground  for passing judgment.   Those people who  have had
such experiences are totally evil people, because they are
always alienated from good people like us;   who know with
full  confidence  what  holy  scripture tells us  we  must
always  do,  and tells us what we must never do.  We  must
never change our minds about the meaning of holy scripture
as  we  have  always understood holy scripture  since  our
childhood.

     If  we  are  to be saved from the  mortal  danger  of
knowing in detail what it is like to have been involved in
taboo experiences, we must not consider for a moment  what
it is like to be despised and rejected by men,  and put on
a   cross  because  of  having  been  involved  in   taboo
experiences.    Such   knowledge   is  too   terrible   to
contemplate,  too dangerous to consider. Such knowledge of
the   consequences  of  experiencing   our:    rejections,
alienations,  excommunications, shunnings, disfellowships,
and  banishments  is evil knowledge;  we must avoid it  in
order  to be saved!  We must not listen to the people  who
have   experienced   evil  because  of   our   rejections,
alienation,       excommunications,      shunning      and
disfellowshipping.    The   people  who  have   had   such
experiences  are totally evil people,  and we must totally
avoid them.

     Praise be to God for giving us our gospel by which we
can  self-righteously separate ourselves from evil people,
and  so view them from a morally safe distance,   as  they
suffer in hell because of their evil experiences and   our
holy rejections.
