"Infallible Authority" by JJ Dewey

Well, it's been a while since I posted anything to this blog. I renewed my license, and I'm up and running again.

I decided to start off by posting the links to a book by JJ Dewey called Infallible Authority. It describes how the leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have set themselves up as the ultimate artibors of all things spiritual. By their lights, what their "prophet" says today takes priority over that the same prophet said yesterday, or what another prophet said 100 years ago, what an ancient prophet said in the Bible, or even what Jesus Christ Himself taught.

JJ exposes the flaw in this thinking.

Any intellectually conceived object is always in the past
and therefore unreal. Reality is always the moment of
vision before the intellectualization takes place. There is
no other reality.
