I think the primary reason is all of the apostles, who have to preside and talk at all of these conference sessions, are really old.

Yes, I remember that from about 20 years ago (or more)

So sad to hear this. He had a way of finding humor in any situation. May the penguin rest in peace.

I was rewatching this 60 minutes Australia episode of Mormons cooking the books and one of the members talked about a class action lawsuit they were bringing against the church in Australia. Has anyone heard about that lawsuit?

... Mormon is victory for Satan to piss off Hinkley ... Announced 200 temples to piss off Hinckley Ya think GBH and RMN get to have a Professional-Wrestling-Style grudge-match in the MORmON afterlife to work out their differences? Has it already happened, or do they have to wait until " The ...

I watched zero conference last weekend. I did look at MoPags posts on the conference. It sounded like 1-2 people mentioned a tragic bus accident in Africa or somewhere. I think staying away from the US gun violence is probably a good call. That’s probably all the world hears about anyway regarding t ...

Aside from his exaggerations and lies with his many faith promoting stories (ie spiral, airplane death dive), he created more change than any other president since I have been alive. I didn’t agree with all his changes, but there were a lot. Mormon is victory for Satan to piss off Hinkley Women can b ...

Since Nelson died, the Q12 has taken over the church. What is the doctrine around this. I do know the D&C 107 says that the FP, Q12, and Q70 are all equal in authority.

Why doesn’t the Q70 have a place at the table in this transition?

I may or may not be able to join. We do not pay for a TV subscription, so pulling it up off of the internet is our only option of watching and dear hubby is trying, but can’t find parts and so on. Shows how much interest he has that he didn’t even plan ahead. So, maybe I’ll join and maybe I will hav ...

It seems we have all been waiting and wanting this change. Many think that Oaks will really start to drive the church into the ground. I can’t imagine him not to put more pressure on the LGBTQ community as he has done so for 50 years.

“Taylor and Brannon are also accused of requiring victims to work in call centers for long hours without pay, according to the DOJ. The two would also allegedly punish victims with "public humiliation, additional work, food and shelter restrictions, psychological abuse, forced repentance, sleep d ...

D&C 77:6 says the Earth has existed for 7000 years. I suspect there is a divide in the church based on this revelation from JS. It is obvious from science this is not true.

I love stuff like this. Mormons LOVE going to church, but they are strangely overjoyed whenever the number or length of meetings are reduced. They have such deep respect and reverence for their sacred temple garments and the modesty they dictate, but it's like a Black Friday brawl when skimpier ...

Wealth: I remember selling myself to do small jobs for people at the annual award Bazaar. The money went to the building and operations fund for my local meeting house. Operating funds didn’t come from headquarters, you had to earn it at the ward level. Now…the church has $300 billion and still doe ...

I’m so sorry for the loss of your daughter-in-law. May you find peace and comfort in your loss and often remember the shared experiences.

Can I grab a 4-piece nugget and take that with me as a snack through the endowment session? Imagine having food and snacks to keep you awake during the session.

Mopag- great discussion as always and thank you for running these Nomference sessions.
It sounds like having a raspberry lemonade makes it easier to tolerate conference sessions.

I hope Uchtdorf gets to become prophet some day. Maybe he could make some meaningful changes.

I think this was just plain dumb what the state legislature did. I am a supporter of LGBTQ people. To be transparent, I was not a fan of gays commandeering the rainbow. I used to have a rainbow air freshener on my rear view mirror and so there was that problem. I recommend LGBTQ do another takeover ...

Why are Easop’s fables not regarded as scripture like the Bible stories? There seem to be few differences and Aesop’s Fables came out around the same time. It appears even Jesus referred to Aesop’s fables in Matthew: In a series of warnings in Matthew 7, Jesus uses the imagery of Aesop’s fable to war ...
