William Noel,

Larry Downing, the author,  more or less called the opponents of WO heretics.  You are not castigating the proponents of WO for creating great offense in the church. Do you think 'heretic' is an offensive prejorative; or maybe you think I ought to wear it as a badge of honor?   The proponents of WO are the innovators.  I think Elder Downing is being too sophisticated trying to smear opponents of WO as enemies of orthodoxy.  We don't want to change things.

 There has been a lot of needless suffering and sacrifice on the part of Sabbathkeepers if the Sabbath texts can be explained away with the same sort of sophistry used to explain away the anti-WO texts.  What is your suggestion to the spiritually weak?  Keep Sunday?
