"Ignorance"


“Ignorance”

A nation seduced in vain
thinking unable to raped
pretending to know it all
while living in ignorance
adopted behavior theirs
unwilling to seek truth
(believing that they knew)
being taught for money
living in their ignorance
a nation seduced willing!

“And they who remain shall also be quickened; nevertheless, they shall return again to their own place, to enjoy that which they are willing to receive, because they were not willing to enjoy that which they might have received.
“For what doth it profit a man if a gift is bestowed upon him, and he receive not the gift? Behold, he rejoices not in that which is given unto him, neither rejoices in him who is the giver of the gift.” (D&C 88:32–33.)  Hartmon Rector Jr. “Ignorance is Expensive” April 1971 General Conference; https://www.lds.org/general-conference/1971/04/ignorance-is-expensive?lang=eng
