5. The peace that comes from just accepting facts that are based on overwhelming evidence. (Perhaps this is a corollary to Darksparks's #2.)

For example, imagine the trouble this scripture caused me when I studied biology and geology at BYU:

__Doctrine and Covenants 77:6__

6 Q[uestion]. What are we to understand by the book which John saw,[1] which was sealed on the back with seven seals?
A[nswer]. We are to understand that it contains the revealed will, mysteries, and the works of God; the hidden things of his economy concerning this earth during the seven thousand years of its continuance, or its temporal existence.

The raised beds that DH built that I plan to dig in all day Sunday and plant hyacinth bulbs instead of watching the clock in RS thinking, "are you nuts?" while one RS-er blathers on that she should have been sealed to the Kimball line instead of that step-guy, Leibowitz, that her granny got sealed to after throwing Kimball away running off with ... and the RS president patting her hand and assuring her that it's all OK 'cause God's gonna fix it all anyway, and she'll be sealed to Kimball 'cause that's who she should be sealed to ...

Maybe Kimball died, I don't know.
