NOM

Back on the old board it was tradition that on Halloween and April Fools day, people who felt comfortable doing so, would change their profile picture to their real photo. I always love seeing the faces of those who feel safe sharing! I don't have my avatar pic saved on this computer and I'm afraid...

Does anyone know if the BYU Black Student Union is an official organization at BYU? I never knew it existed, but I'm glad it's there. It's listed as a "Club": https://multicultural.byu.edu/clubs Here's the description: "For the purposes of intellectually, socially, and culturally enriching the BYU ...

Just goes to show the church is continuing to dodge and hide the fact the priesthood ban wasn’t “from God”, but rather from the racist Brigham Young. Perhaps its time to throw Brother Brigham under the bus, apologize for past racism and come out and say the priesthood ban was wrong. Then rename BYU...

Well, Wilcox will most likely never speak in General Conference again at least (he spoke at a session in October, 2021). Elder Ponderize gave his talk in 2015, and he spokse again 3 years later at GC. Granted, Brad's blunder is far worse, but the church does like to show it is in charge. Yes, true!...

It'll be interesting to see how the leaders handle this. Prediction: a newsroom release that gushes about how much the church loves and embraces all of God's children. No specific public criticism or censure of Wilcox. Wilcox quietly goes away to a special calling. Debi falls silent. There's anothe...

These types of things have happened before. The Q15's advisors tell them to just wait it out. Eventually the faithful forget that it ever happened. Yes, no statement from the leaders....yet. They will maybe just allow others to speak for them. Here's the one from BYU (they posted a statement on Feb...

…eating popcorn…..this is an amazing $hit show to watch….did the question of why white people didn’t get priesthood for one thousand eight hundred twenty nine years ever get answered? I mean….that’s the question we should be asking…shoving more popcorn in my mouth…. Well, Wilcox definitely showed a...

Hi, River Morgan here. For those who didn't participate in the old NOM board, I'm a GOF* 😂 and mouthy to boot. i'm BIC and still a member of record, but out for almost a decade. I raised a family as a good Primary President mommy though and they are all still very much in, to my sorrow. I see probl...

I think he said to make it more comfortable for everyone which has to mean they’re eliminating garments. I mean I’d go back if they eliminated garments altogether. 😂 That's interesting as I just read on another Mormon Forum that rumors are (from a few "insiders") that the leaders are soon to announ...

So....I've been a little less than active the past year or so. It's not that I don't love you guys. You are my NOM ward family and always will be. For the past two years I've been in nursing school. It was insanely hard and time consuming, particularly since I had to learn how to be a nurse in the ...

This isn’t as nefarious as it looks. The church didn’t exactly say “Hey let’s apply so we can receive money and not spend our own.” Even Harvard received money. I thought Harvard ended up turning it down? I'll search for more info.... ETA: Found this: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/22/us/harvard-t...

What is your definition of Doctrine?

Do you know that even past Prophets have taught false doctrine? So even the Prophets of the church can't agree on what true doctrine is.

Do you think they could have shoehorned a few more words into the title of this thing???

I'm reminded of what the (now defunct) blog Reasoning With Vampires used to say about Stephenie Meyers' writing: "sentences are not minivans."

What is the title of the proclamation?

Once I needed to get a white hanky for something totally non-church-related, but I couldn't find one anywhere because they had all been scooped up for the upcoming Draper temple dedication.

People are supposed to be staying home....not out buying hankies

Can we use cut up garment tops if we can’t find a hanky?

No, just go to the store and buy one.

Are they doing the Hosanna shout at the end of this morning session or at the end of the entire conference (on Sunday)???
