pat, that is so true that people bring their whole life into their understanding of questions and answers.

People come from all walks of life and all types of experiences. This includes even answers about doctrinal or church related items. Everyone is at different spiritual places in life.

I hadn’t heard that before so I went looking. I think this might be the quote–it’s a great thing to keep in mind: “I have always had an inquiring mind. I am not satisfied just to accept things. I like to follow through and study things out. I learned early to put aside those gospel questions that I could not answer. I had a shelf of things I did not understand, but as I have grown older and studied and prayed and thought about each problem, one by one I have been able to understand them better.” — [Caroline Eyring Miner and Edward L. Kimball, Camilla (Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Company, 1980), pp. 126–27]

I remember Camilla Kimball saying that in her mind she had a bookshelf of questions. Over time some would get answered, but then more would appear. That feels so ‘right’ to me. Letting the questions ‘percolate’ while proceeding with a life of faith has led me to both answers and happiness. Thanks for writing on this topic.
