It never had much meaning besides my knowing that I wasn't supposed to talk about right and wrong.

40 years ago, when I first heard about the two trees, it was taught in context of Moses' exhortation to Israel to "choose life," and Jesus' word to the disciples that "my words are spirit and life." It was a helpful exhortation that we should not get overly occupied with the meany things in life.

It never meant that we should avoid and cover up unrighteous activities by those in leadership positions. But that is how it is now presented by the Blendeds.
