Re: Real Housewifes of SLC
Oh my heck! Sisters Betty-Sue and Eldora would be great for this show, they really amplify the gospel! And what about that bishop's wife in the 5th ward? She is good at home canning and playing the piano in Junior Sunday School.

Re: Mission rules are now just suggestions.
This might be similar to Bishop Roulette. The guiding principle here will be "missions are like a box of chocolates" you never know what you will get.

Re: Why would you want to help the needy ?
Trumpian economics may be the causative factor at play here both in terms of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and the lack of empathy on the part of your church leaders.

Re: Turning Christains into Atheists
I think Progressive Christianity is pretty life-affirming and Universalism distributes God's love to all.

Re: Thoughts on Mozart and Joseph Smith
The closest piece would be Mussorgsky's Night On Bald Mountain . https://www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=iCEDfZgDPS8 Ha! You only say that because you are seeking to shield Grieg's In the Hall of the Mountain King from such an association! https://www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=kLp_Hh6DKWc

Re: Thoughts on Mozart and Joseph Smith
Classical music would demand many variations on the It came to pass theme. The closest piece would be Mussorgsky's Night On Bald Mountain.deacon blues wrote: ↑Fri Nov 15, 2019 8:23 am... the BOM does not match the quality of Mozart's works.

Re: Ballard: 'BSA left the church, we didn't leave them'
I think what Ballard may have meant was that the BSA decided to no longer exclude gay scouts, which inflamed the Brethren's feelings.

Re: Giving Blessings
Belief in the efficacy of the blessing is more contingent on the individual's own physiological reaction to something comforting than it is to the supernatural powers of the blesser. If you wish to ease their suffering, then be empathetic and solemn in playing your part. "The Chief Penguin drew hims...

And take Praise to the Man out of the hymnbook. The beautiful music for this song is borrowed from an old Irish/Gaelic tune. It has forever been ruined for me.... :x Praise to the Man can be equally set to the melody from Hail to the Chief. As a matter of fact, the next time Trump campaigns in Utah...

Re: Mormon guy's adoption scheme...again
Or is he subliminally implying that in some cases being a Latter-day Saint can put one above the law? Being LDS (and Republican) has not only helped a couple of criminal Attorney Generals escape jail time but ultimately netted them remuneration from the State of Utah. Elder Rasband's comment was me...
