What is a good book on Mormonism?

I think a lot of people have a problem with “Federal Visionism” because they refuse to understand the teachings in the context of the church, where, generally, people really do believe God. Instead, they look at everything as individuals (individualism?), and then things get all screwy.

Well, I was just going to same some things about the James White ruckus, but I don’t want to get into that mess, and if I posted what I had typed up, I’d be a hippocrite.

Instead, I will talk about a movie I saw recently: An Ideal Husband.

I haven’t yet gone through and really thought about it, and made an attempt to discern what I was being fed in watching it. I haven’t typed up my page about the movie, giving the pros and cons, and a critical analysis from a Christian worldview (something I recently decided would be a good idea to do for each film I see). So I can only give some initial reactions to the film.

I liked it. I enjoyed watching it, and was on the edge of my seat (so to speak) during the climax of the film. I enjoyed the characters, an thought that they were well presented. The moral of the story is to repent, and also to forgive. Of course, other, more minor elements are throughout, but I think that’s the biggie. Or, to put it even more bluntly, everyone’s a screw up, so don’t pretend like you aren’t. But don’t settle for being a screw up, either. “Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more”.

so anyhow.
