We don't like all those sweet, sugary foods. We don't understand having parties where nobody dances. Tell the Americans not to run away from us just because we stand closer together when we speak than they do. There's more than one way to be a good member of the Church. Don't shut us out because we're different.
Human beings are slow to change.
Everyone has a comfort zone, and few people have the vision or the courage to step outside it. But computers are beginning to turn us into a global community despite ourselves. Now that it is just as easy to talk to a church member in Perth, Australia, as it is to talk to one in Nephi, Utah, we as a people have instant access to the views of one another. The same topics that interest Church members offline are likely to interest them in computer discussions. People who communicate with other Saints via computer forums, where guidelines for communications are safe and clear, are always ready to jump into a discussion about the particulars of the Word of Wisdom, but the opportunities for conversation don't stop there.
