Talk:Testimony of Simplicity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] inclusive language etc
There are several glaring problems with the introduction to this page.
1 It is all in gender exclusive language, ie a person is always referred to as 'he'.
2 A testimony is not a 'belief' (1st sentence). It is an expression (especially in action) of the nature and will of God/Spirit/Inward Light.
3 The testimony of simplicity is not about using resources 'in ways that are most likely to make life truly better for oneself and others', but using them in accordance with the guidance of the Spirit, the will of God, etc. This is an important distinction, because otherwise it sounds like 'simplicity' is an abstract moral principle or rule rather than an expression of our experience of Spiritual reality.
