First occurrence of what? That we believe in the Mother in Heaven? Or that we don’t talk about her because God wants to protect her? Or something else? I’m confused (which isn’t hard to do)

The first occurrence of why we don’t talk about her, because God protects her and doesn’t want her talked about at all out of respect. That kindof idea is what I was talking about.

ParticipantA footnote in a CES manual. I declare that to be NOT A SOURCE. At this point in my FC, CES is the least trustable of all sources
