Daryl, If I read your reply correctly, I'm sorry I've come off as being puritan in my quest for greater understanding on what is conducive to the Spirit and what drives that same Spirit away.

My personal study of the scriptures has led me to believe that what "the ways of the world" are are some of the above mentioned on my first post. I'm not trying to impose the way I live my life on others. I'm trying to understand better why they are so generally accepted. Sorry to all if this thread is not coming across being that way. I think I brought up way too many topics initially. I truly feel that in conference they're warning us of a lot of these things, and I don't hear many people outside of conference talking about them. Elder Cooks last conference talk for example.

Dragon, addressing the knife cut and spear wound post you wrote, I truly feel like maybe we wouldn't even be wounded by the spears if we'd stay away from the knives. One example of that meaning, I don't feel like many guys would deal with pornography addiction if they'd stay away with the things that plant seeds in their hearts. I guess I feel this way because of the very experiences my husband and I have been through in our lives. I think those things that plant the seeds make all the difference.

rdwhitaker, Thank you for your thoughts. That lady you mentioned sounds a lot like my deceased Auntie. She was truly a remarkable woman(:
