Has your church taught you that pride is the sin that leads to all other sins. Pride separates you from God. Humility is the trait that Christ honored.
“Has your church taught you that pride is the sin that leads to all other sins.”
You know there are two different definitions for the word “pride,” CC. Are you just looking for a way to pick at SD?
Interestingly, Italian has two different words that are translated to English as “proud.” It’s most useful distinction in that language. For example, when a parent is proud of his child, pleased with his performance, he will say he is “fiero.”
The Italian word for the sin of which you accuse SD is “orgolioso.” This is the pride that the Scriptures preach against.
It’s unfortunate that this distinction doesn’t exist in the English language.
I, too, am “fiero” to be a member of the LDS Church. It has brought great blessings and joy to my life, as well as a personal relationship with my Savior, Lord, and Friend, Jesus Christ; and my desire is to share that joy with others.
