Joseph Fielding Smith is the architect of controversial LDS orthodoxy. He has some controversial writings about Blacks and Ezra Taft Benson. We'll also delve into his role with Lowell Bennion, a BYU professor who was fired. Was JFS responsible or was it someone else? Matthew Bowman answers. We'll also dive into his role in shaping orthodoxy in the 20th century. Check out our conversation... https://youtu.be/toqjRr1B8Eo Joseph Fielding Smith: Architect of Controversial LDS Orthodoxy Joseph Fielding Smith described as a "lightning rod" due to some views considered politically incorrect today, particularly regarding race. Dr. Matt Bowman, author of "Joseph Fielding Smith, a Mormon Theologian," sheds light on Smith's impact on the church. One of the most uncomfortable aspects of Smith's legacy is his writings about Black individuals, especially concerning the priesthood. In his work, The Way to Perfection, Smith explicitly stated his subscription to the theory that people of African descent were less righteous in the pre-existence. He used language suggesting they were "not entitled to be born white." Smith was a staunch "defender of the racial restrictions" in the Church and became a major exponent of the idea, which the source traces back to Orson Hyde, that Black people possessed souls less righteous in the pre-existence. This stance led to prominent public clashes, notably with church educator Lowell Bennion at a symposium in the early 1950s. Their argument over the ban contributed to Bennion's eventual dismissal by Ernest Wilkinson, who was president of BYU and commissioner of church education. Wilkinson viewed Bennion as too liberal on race and saw Smith as an ally in this regard. While Wilkinson was the person who carried out the dismissal, the collision with Fielding Smith helped instigate the decision. Disagreement with Benson Smith also had complex relationships, even with those seen as ideologically sympathetic. Despite being viewed as a fellow conservative, Smith had significant disagreements with Ezra Taft Benson. A letter from Smith exists in which he hoped Benson's "blood will be purified" upon his return from a mission in Europe in the 1960s. Smith was skeptical of the Church becoming heavily involved in American politics, viewing Benson's fascination with politics as distasteful and inappropriate for an apostle. He considered it "unseemly" and "disreputable." Smith also saw Benson as a conspiracy theorist, distinguishing standard conservative politics (like that of Dwight Eisenhower or David McKay) from conspiracy theory. Smith hoped Benson's time away would rid him of these inclinations, allowing him to return as an apostle rather than an aspiring amateur politician. This highlights that "real deep divides" can exist even within the conservative camp. Controversial LDS Orthodoxy Perhaps Smith's most enduring theological contribution was his role in developing the idea of orthodoxy within the Latter-day Saint tradition. Orthodoxy, an older Protestant concept particularly associated with John Calvin, posits that being a faithful member requires believing certain things and that incorrect beliefs can jeopardize salvation. This was not a central idea in the early Christian Church's first century. Smith, possibly influenced by Protestant fundamentalism, began insisting in the mid-20th century that belief is actually really important and that believing "the correct ideas" were crucial because incorrect beliefs could "ruin your salvation." He defended this notion vigorously. Historically, while early Christianity saw debates over ideas like the Trinity, and Roman Catholicism emphasized sacraments and art for teaching, the strong push for average members to understand and adhere to correct doctrine emerged from the Reformed Protestant tradition. Smith's emphasis on orthodoxy gained significant traction in the church. When he became President, many members of the Quorum of the Twelve were individuals he ...

By James H Butler - Big subject, but one foundational principle that is very important in achieving unity, in any area of life, is prioritizing relationships. Disagreements will happen. Unless they are very significant disagreements many disagreements can help those involved grow and mature.

“The difference now is horizontal wells, faster drilling, and better geophysics. That makes today's EGS attempts more promising than ever.” In this episode, host Andrew Geary talks with Michael Wilt and Bill Cumming, guest editors of the April 2025 The Leading Edge special section on geophysical applications to geothermal exploration and development. With decades of field experience, Bill and Michael dive into the lessons and findings from the U.S. Department of Energy's FORGE Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) research project and Fervo's Cape Modern EGS commercial project. The interview features thoughtful back-and-forth that reveals the complexity of emerging EGS techniques. They discuss how microseismic monitoring, DAS systems, P-wave velocity models, and well design are shaping the future of EGS development. Importantly, they share practical advice for how geophysicists and students can get involved in this rapidly evolving field. KEY TAKEAWAYS > Utah FORGE and Cape Modern are shaping the practical future of EGS, offering real data and insight into what works, what doesn't, and what still needs to be figured out. > Back-and-forth perspectives from Bill and Michael show that even experts are still navigating unknowns in EGS development, especially around velocity modeling, fiber reliability, and stimulation strategies. > Geophysics is critical in reducing uncertainty in geothermal projects, but models must be questioned and continuously updated as new data arrives.

China and the United States should return to a path of dialogue and win-win cooperation and shoulder their shared responsibility as major powers to serve as anchors for global peace and prosperity, Chinese officials and international experts said on Tuesday.中国官员和国际专家周二表示，中美两国应重回对话合作、合作共赢之路，共同承担大国责任，成为世界和平与繁荣的稳定器。Liu Jianchao, head of the International Department of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, said the world is closely watching China-US relations because of their significance to each other and to humanity at large.中共中央对外联络部部长刘建超表示，中美关系对彼此乃至全人类都至关重要，世界各国都密切关注。"It is our consistent view that China and the US must live in peace. Conflict and confrontation are not our options," Liu said at the opening ceremony of the Fourth Wanshou Dialogue on Global Security in Beijing. "We hope that the US side will join us in pursuing dialogue, partnership and win-win cooperation instead of confrontation, alliances and zero-sum games."刘建超在北京举行的第四届万寿国际安全研讨会开幕式上表示：“我们始终认为，中美必须和平相处，冲突对抗不是我们的选择。我们希望美方与我们一道，致力于对话、伙伴关系、合作共赢，而不是对抗、结盟和零和博弈。”The two-day forum, themed "Universal Security in a Turbulent World: The Responsibility of Major Countries", brought together officials, scholars and experts from across the globe to explore how the international community can reduce tensions and conflictsand build a more peaceful and prosperous world.�为期两天的论坛主题为“动荡世界中的普遍安全：大国的责任”，来自世界各地的官员、学者和专家齐聚一堂，共同探讨国际社会如何减少紧张与冲突，建设一个更加和平与繁荣的世界。Liu's remarks followed a high-level China-US economic and trade meeting concluded on Sunday in Geneva, Switzerland, which he said produced some positive outcomes.刘建超是在周日于瑞士日内瓦结束的中美经贸高级别会谈之后发表上述讲话的。他表示，此次会谈取得了一些积极成果。"We hope that the United States will build on this meeting, continue to work with China in the same direction, fully rectify its wrong practice of unilateral tariff hikes, keep strengthening mutually beneficial cooperation, uphold the sound, stable and sustainable development of China-US economic and trade relations, and jointly inject more certainty and stability into the world economy," he said.“我们希望美方在此次会议基础上，继续与中方相向而行，彻底纠正单边加征关税的错误做法，不断加强互利合作，维护中美经贸关系健康、稳定、可持续发展，共同为世界经济注入更多确定性和稳定性。”Liu also reiterated China's commitment to being a constructive force for peace, stability and progress, and said the country will continue to promote open and inclusive economic globalization and pursue common development for all countries.刘建超还重申，中国致力于做和平、稳定、进步的建设性力量，并表示中国将继续推动开放包容的经济全球化，实现各国共同发展。Participants at the forum criticized Washington's use of tariffs, investment barriers and trade restrictions as tools to pressure other countries, and voiced concerns that the world's two largest economies risk drifting further into confrontation.�论坛与会者批评美方利用关税、投资壁垒和贸易限制作为向其他国家施压的工具，并表示担心世界两大经济体可能进一步陷入对抗。 Douglas Bandow, a special assistant to former US president Ronald Reagan and a senior research fellow at the Cato Institute, said the United States and China bear a disproportionate responsibility to act not only in their own interests, but also for the benefit of the wider world.美国前总统罗纳德·里根的特别助理、卡托研究所高级研究员道格拉斯·班多表示，美国和中国肩负着不成比例的责任，不仅要为自身利益采取行动，也要为更广阔的世界利益采取行动。 "Our governments and peoples must find our way to work through present difficulties and disputes into a better, more prosperous and peaceful future," Bandow said. "Disagreements are sure to remain. Nevertheless, our peoples must remain in communion with one another, and our governments must pursue dialogues and policies which preserve communication, allow compromise, promote conciliation and encourage cooperation."“我们的政府和人民必须找到解决当前困难和争端的方法，迈向更美好、更繁荣、更和平的未来，”班多说。“分歧肯定会存在。然而，我们的人民必须保持相互沟通，我们的政府必须推行对话和政策，以保持沟通，允许妥协，促进和解，鼓励合作。”Benny Octaviar, former head of Indonesian Military Research Center and coordinating expert for the Indonesian National Armed Forces Commander, said major countries must reject zero-sum thinking and behave as responsible stakeholders in maintaining the international order.印尼军事研究中心前主任、印尼国家武装部队司令协调专家本尼·奥克塔维亚尔表示，大国必须摒弃零和思维，在维护国际秩序方面扮演负责任的利益攸关方的角色。"Sovereign equality, mutual benefit and peaceful coexistence should be the guiding principles instead of double standards or geopolitical containment," he said.他说：“主权平等、互利共赢、和平共处应该成为指导原则，而不是双重标准或地缘政治遏制。”Andrey Kortunov, former director general of the Russian International Affairs Council, spoke in support of globalization, saying it is not a national strategy but an inevitable stage in human development.俄罗斯国际事务委员会前总干事安德烈·科尔图诺夫支持全球化，称全球化不是国家战略，而是人类发展的必然阶段。"It can be slowed down, but it cannot be completely stopped or reversed," he said.他说：“全球化可以被减缓，但不能完全停止或逆转。”Kortunov said responsible major powers must master multilateralism, as simply multiplying centers of power will not automatically bring global security or stability.科尔图诺夫表示，负责任的大国必须掌握多边主义，因为仅仅增加权力中心并不会自动带来全球安全或稳定。"It is important to learn how to manage relations among nations in such a way that unavoidable competition would not overshadow cooperation, and would not turn into outright confrontation," he said.他说：“重要的是学会如何处理国家间关系，使不可避免的竞争不会掩盖合作，也不会演变成彻底的对抗。”tussle/ˈtʌsl/v./n.争斗；争执multilateralism/ˌmʌltiˈlætərəlɪzəm/n.多边主义rectify/ˈrektɪfaɪ/v.纠正，矫正zero-sum/ˈzɪəroʊ sʌm/adj.零和的

One of my favorite new words is, of all things, disrespect, used as a verb. It's not the same as a mere lack of respect. It's more intense, more direct, and  … more offensive. We can feel disrespected when that wasn't the intention. Especially now when so much of life can seem fraught, we can jump to feeling disrespected in a heartbeat. Plus the reverse: we can look, speak, write, and behave in a way that radiates disrespect. We can slow down and not leap to conclusions about someone else's intent.  Also, we need to pay close attention to the messages we send. And keep the dis out of disagreement.Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

 Disagreements are normal—but when winning the argument becomes more important than the relationship, we all lose. In this episode of Winning Begins at Home, Randy Gravitt shares a powerful visual to show how small tensions can tangle up even the strongest connections. Focusing on humility and real listening, he offers a better way to handle conflict and care for the people who matter most. This is a heartfelt reminder that being right isn't nearly as important as being loving. 

Beautiful Souls,Thank you for turning inward after experiencing relationship tension. Taking time to calm our emotions is a profound act of love – both for ourselves and our relationships. Let me know in the comments how I can better support your journey toward relationship harmony. With peaceful understanding, Michelle.

Disagreements, tensions, and misunderstandings are a natural part of working life, but when left unresolved, they can escalate, leading to low morale, lost productivity, and even legal disputes.

We took a trip through the Gerry Dulac chat with some interesting draft related questions and answers. Sean Keller from the Denver Post joined the show. Sean joined to talk about Shedeur Sanders and why his draft stock is all over the place. Sean said the bad mechanics and his family are reasons why he is sliding a bit. Sean said there are teams that don't want all of the baggage that comes along with Sanders, like the Giants. The guys asked Sean where Sanders ranks among guys the Steelers currently have, which isn't saying much. Sean said the good with Sanders does outweigh the bad, but said the bad can get you beat. Sean said he doesn't know a single Colorado player that doesn't like Shedeur, showing that he goes over well with his teammates. He talked about making Colorado better and work with multiple OCs. Sean thinks Pittsburgh would be a good fit, but he definitely needs help.

Episode 191: In an era where arguments often erupt into shouting matches or retreat into silence, hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada explore how we can disagree better — and why it matters more than ever. Drawing on insights from philosophy, journalism, childhood play and even sports fandom, the conversation unfolds into a thoughtful examination of how disagreement has shifted in our culture. The hosts argue that we’ve increasingly lost sight of what disagreement is meant to do: open our minds, sharpen our thinking and strengthen our democratic institutions. Instead, disagreement has become a contest to be won, often reduced to emotionally charged sound bites or dismissed entirely. Kyte recounts a scene of children negotiating the rules of a flag football game, using it as a metaphor for the character-building that underpins both democracy and self-governance. He connects these playground moments to the deterioration of civic norms, highlighting our increasing acceptance of executive overreach and our mistrust of those enforcing rules, ranging from referees to elected officials. The hosts also reflect on their experiences navigating disagreements at work, in relationships and even online. They differentiate between healthy disagreement and toxic confrontation, emphasizing the importance of humility, curiosity, and mutual respect.  They caution, too, that constructive disagreement isn’t always appropriate. Silence or solidarity may be more ethical than critique in moments of grief, stress or unity. But avoiding all disagreement, they warn, risks eroding creativity, growth, and understanding — not just in politics or the workplace, but in our everyday lives. Ultimately, this episode is a call to reclaim disagreement as a civic skill. It’s not just about speaking up — it’s about listening well, staying engaged and valuing the process of understanding even when consensus is elusive.

It's no secret that most men want to find love in life and someone they can partner with throughout life. But the reality is that far-fewer men are doing the work required than ever before. And, for those who are actively looking for love, many of them are floundering when it comes to approaching women and building interest that could potentially lead to a long-term relationship. David Meessen is a man who has made it his life's work to help men understand why they struggle and why society, at large, seems to be continually stacking the deck against the type of relationships the men listening to this podcast are looking for. Today we talk about why men seem to be so intimidated in approaching women, the skills (and, they are learnable skills) you can develop to have a more successful dating life, why “Progressive Desensitization” is such a valuable option in love and in life, the alarming statistics around romantic relationships and young men's increasing aversion to them, and how radical honestly (not overly-agreeableness) is what creates attraction.

I don't know anyone who loves engaging in disagreements.  In fact, most of the women I know avoid disagreements, conflict, and confrontation at all costs.  However, there are great costs to this avoidance, including missed opportunities for creativity and innovation, poor communication and growing resentment, slower or stalled decision making, a lack of trust and psychological safety, and higher potential for burnout and turnover.  So, you can see the costs are high! Researchers at Harvard surveyed 486 employees across a wide range of industries and found that only 39% of respondents reported being trained or coached in handling workplace conflict. Of those who were trained or coached in this area, a stunning 96% said training and coaching helped them deal with conflict more effectively.  73% said they felt more confident and comfortable engaging in disagreements.  62% felt they were able to turn potentially destructive conflicts into productive ones. Clearly, this is a skill that is not only needed, but that also has so many benefits in terms of impacting team and organizational outcomes! In this episode, we dig into the importance of disagreement in leadership and communication while debunking common myths surrounding conflict. I share how learning to navigate disagreements can lead to innovative solutions and stronger relationships. Inspired by my recent school work for my Master's in Organizational Leadership program, I introduce you to the HEAR method from Harvard, which provides a framework for effective communication during disagreements. The episode will help you begin to embrace disagreement as a powerful and necessary tool, as well as an opportunity for growth and collaboration.

The NoCo Hemp Expo wrapped up its eleventh annual event last week in Estes Park, Colorado. The overall mood was optimistic, according to attendees, but there was an undercurrent of uncertainty and angst. The industry stands at a crossroads. Is it too dramatic (or melodramatic) to call it the battle for the soul of the industry? The word hemp means different things to different people, but for over a thousand years, the English word hemp meant one thing: the crop you farm at scale to produce raw materials for industry and food — ropes, sail cloth, paper, animal feed. But now, a quarter way through the 21st Century, the definition of hemp, some would say, has expanded, leading to new opportunities, while others might say the new definition of hemp has been co-opted and pejorative. In this episode of the Lancaster Farming Industrial Hemp Podcast, host Eric Hurlock (with co-host Sophia Kurzius) gathers insights from 12 industry leaders, farmers, processors, advocates and policy experts to examine the defining issue of our time: the meaning of the word “hemp.” From Joy Beckerman's impassioned plea to protect the fiber and grain future of hemp, to Chris Fontes' nuanced defense of the cannabinoid market, this episode captures the friction and common ground shaping hemp's next chapter. And what's this we hear about executive orders coming soon that will redefine the hemp space even further? Plus, why you can't tell the story of hemp in America without talking about hemp on tribal land. Hemp is a game changer for Indigenous communities. Hempcrete, for instance, gives the people on reservations almost immediate access to addressing their housing needs in a way that was never available to them. "Hemp is achievable, it's circular, and the stories I hear from people in Indigenous communities are incredibly inspiring," said host Eric Hurlock. On this episode, you'll hear from: JJ Johnson – Founder of JJGro Kelly Burke – Director at Kifcure Joe Hickey – Co-founder of the Kentucky Hemp Growers Cooperative Ken Meyer – Founder of Complete Hemp Processing Morris Beegle – Founder of NoCo Hemp Expo and WAFBA Joy Beckerman – Principal at Hemp Ace International Dionne Holmquist – Director at Makoce Agriculture Development Ken Elliott – Founder of IND HEMP Jean Lotus – Publisher of Hemp Build Magazine Chris Fontes – CEO of High Spirits Beverages U.S. Hemp Authority – Chris Fontes is President Andrew Bish – President of the Hemp Feed Coalition Bish Enterprises – COO Andrew Bish Greg Wilson – Founder of HempWood Topics Covered in This Episode Confusion over the definition of "hemp" Tension between cannabinoid and industrial sectors Misuse of the word “hemp” for intoxicating products Historical meaning and etymology of the word hemp Short-term profit vs. long-term industry building Cannabinoid products dominating policy conversations Farmer-focused versus consumer-focused markets Executive order rumors and Farm Bill delays Regulatory clarity and safety for consumers Indigenous sovereignty and tribal hemp regulation Shifting public perception through language Need for strong fiber and grain infrastructure Caution about unchecked cannabinoid products GRAS status and feed approval for hemp grain The role of big companies (Ford, Tesla, etc.) in scaling hemp Climate, soil, and sustainability potential of hemp Integrity, transparency, and labeling standards Disagreements within the industry over goals and methods Shared values across hemp sectors despite conflicts The importance of unity and focusing on common ground Joy Beckerman's public stance against intoxicating derivatives The idea of a regulatory split between floral and industrial hemp Hemp's potential for rural revitalization Making hemp “boring” again to normalize it as a commodity Thanks to our sponsors: IND HEMP National Hemp Association Forever Green Production and audio engineering by Lancaster Farming Audio Team: Sophia Kurzius, Justin Berger and Eric Hurlock.

Walk a mile in someone else's mismatched shoes!

In March, we recorded an episode live on stage at SXSW EDU in Austin, Texas. This disagreement is all about ESAs, or Education Savings Accounts. You may have heard of ESAs under a different name, like vouchers or school choice programs. Right now, 18 states have some sort of ESA program in place.The programs are becoming more popular across the country, but should they be? What accounts for the increasing support for ESAs? What risks and benefits do they pose for students and families? Does the rise of ESAs inherently harm our public schools?When we say ESAs, we are NOT talking about 529 plans or other college savings programs. We're talking about K-12 education. These programs create a government-authorized savings account for families, allowing them to take some quantity of the funding that would have supported their child in public school, and use those dollars in the way they see fit: whether that's to supplement private school tuition, parochial school tuition, tutoring, special needs services or for other educational purposes.Shaka Mitchell is a Senior Fellow at the American Federation for Children, an advocacy organization in the school choice movement. He has served in leadership roles at high-performing charter school networks, including Rocketship Education and LEAD Public schools in Nashville.Jaime Puente is the Director of Economic Opportunity at Every Texan, an advocacy and public policy organization striving to expand opportunities for all Texans. He currently oversees their work on education. Previously, Jaime served as Legislative Director for members of the Texas House of Representatives.This episode is moderated by The Disagreement's co-host and co-founder Catherine Cushenberry.Sign up for our newsletter at thedisagreement.substack.com

In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nicholas Giordano welcomes Dr. Cornel West and Dr. Robert George, co-authors of the new book Truth Matters: A Dialogue on Fruitful Disagreement in an Age of Division. As the country faces unprecedented polarization, AI-driven misinformation, and the erosion of intellectual curiosity, West and George offer a powerful roadmap for restoring civil discourse and truth-seeking. Drawing on decades of friendship despite ideological differences, they explore how Americans can navigate political disagreements without destroying relationships. This episode is for those committed to reviving the foundations of a free and open society. Episode Highlights: How friendship rooted in mutual respect can thrive across deep political divides Why the education system has abandoned truth-seeking and how we can fix it What's different about today's political division—and whether we were ever truly unified

But when complaints and disagreements snowball into global attacks on the person, and not on their decisions or behavior, this spells trouble." "It's virtually impossible to resolve a relationship problem when the other person is constantly getting the message that you hate them."

When Dr. Aaron Davis read Reasonable Faith, it changed the trajectory of his life!

"You call me a lot of things, but ignorant I'd disagree on." Andrew Schulz Comedian and Actor Comedy is all about pushing boundaries, but what happens when the joke lands differently than expected? Over the past few months, Ryan Clark and Andrew Schulz have had a public disagreement stemming from comments Andrew made in jest about Black women and their influence on men's appearance. His remarks led Ryan to respond, emphasizing a commitment to defending his culture and refuting Andrew's insinuations of seeking attention. From their viral exchange about clout-chasing and defending black women to messages exchanged privately to the two finally deciding to hash it out face to face. Although tensions were high, the depth and tone of this discussion displayed respect, even in uncomfortable moments, the guys navigated the conversation through the many challenges and misconceptions to try and find a common ground. On this episode of The Pivot Podcast with Ryan, Channing and Fred—Andrew's authenticity shined through, bringing humor, honesty and humility as the men had an unfiltered discussion, where no topic was off limits. Andrew and Ryan don't shy away from tough dialogue, sensitive topics and tackling the fine line between making people laugh and making them uncomfortable. In an effort to separate impact of words from the intent, Andrew explains how his jokes can sometimes be misinterpreted and how comedy, at its core, is about perspective. As the convo furthers, the guys get in-depth about the weight of words, racism, reactions to jokes. the changing nature of comedic responsibility, social media and how the internet can twist context into controversy. Andrew admits that his approach to comedy has matured over time, and he's become conscious of never wanting to hurt anyone and feels his humor is now diversified and united by cultural impact of all people. Buried in the deep revelations, Andrew comes prepared with lots of one liners and fun jabs at Ryan, Fred and Channing, showing a glimpse of the wit, edge and quickness that has yielded his extraordinary success. Beyond the laughs, Andrew opens up about his personal life, from his father's role in his career to getting his start in comedy to his struggles with starting a family and how his fanbase transcended into one of the most diverse audiences in comedy. At the core of this discussion is proof that people, even those who have differences and seem on total opposite sides of something, may be more alike than different afterall.
