Remarkable or unremarkable...a simple yes or no would suffice.

But the answer is both yes and no. Yes, I do sustain the brethren IF and WHEN they speak for God and God lets me know that. And yes, I've had and if I wanted to, can renew, my Temple Recommend. I just see no need to do so at the present time. But if the question is, do I sustain the Brethren in EVERYTHING they say (especially when they are just giving their opinion) OR if you are asking, do I have an active TR - the answer is No.

There, that wasn't so hard now, was it? I suspect, though, that your yes and no answer wouldn't do you much good in being deemed "worthy" by Mormon CHurch leaders.

Well there you go again. I know how much it pleases you when other men like you. But please don't assume that all men are like that. Some men actually ignore the opinions of other men and just follow God. I know that is a weird concept to wrap your head around. But it happens to be true no matter how much you wish to place your beliefs on others.
