What Joseph Smith wrote here is despicable. Visions from God inherently have the opposite effect as described by Smith. They lead one to walk far above sin. **BLAINE: One can only conjecture what Joseph was referring to, but it apparently was not too serious. He admitted to "levity."

Did you also sin in many things after your experience? **BLAINE: No. I was out of work then, and found a job the very next day. The peace I felt from the experience gave me the faith to find the job. Peace be with you. David Miller. ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
