December 21st, 2021 by Patrick Henry
I have done much of which I repent – since I became a Christian I have discerned and recognized this; and three of the worst of my sins were being a doctor, a scientist and a university teacher.

The older I get, the more of my actions of the past, career, personal, and even mission, appear sinful. I could claim ignorance on many — whether it would be a legitimate claim is another issue — but there was a long period of willful rebellion where I did a lot of harm, known and unknown.

(Some of their writings don’t comport with the Restoration, nor recent First Presidency statements, so make allowances.)
