It's one of the main reasons why I never have temptations. But you're right, I should probably just re-write them all. I'd love to create a revised hymnbook completely in reformed Egyptian, to get the purest possible message. I'll have to ponder and fast on that one. Dear Brother Kullervo,

Quick question: do you already know Reformed Egyptian, or would you do the translation by looking into a hat? See, the former would show you'd been diligently doing your Morning Study and been obedient to D&C 130:18-19, but the latter would show so much more faith. Also, why Reformed Egyptian and not Adamic? Or are they really the same thing? Fair enough. Quick question: do you already know Reformed Egyptian, or would you do the translation by looking into a hat?

I speak Reformed Egyptian but have trouble reading and writing it (it's clumsy, but is mighty when spoken). iIm just the opposite with the Adamic. I can read and write without the need of an interpreter, but it all sounds like Pentacostal jibber-jabber when I try to speak it. But no worries. I'll get there.
