Treatment of LGBT folks... One recent change that has been very significant for me is the transgender bathroom policy. The church has told me that my family is not welcome in their buildings. No amount of flowery talk about how much they love and welcome their LGBT members will compensate for the ...

Great to "see" you, bishop. Hope your life is going well.

Anderson did. Like he understood internal politics while being clueless about external (or just aligned with evil, not sure which).

I'm only half listening, but is he preaching a quid pro quo gospel?

It's a very low bar . . .

Drive by pirate here. Exactly the kind of toxic message Sister DP doesn't need. -20

This site has a number of testimonies written down by the faithful of many religions. Seems Mormons don't have a monopoly on"the spirit", whatever it is.

I'm not looking forward to a bunch of new faces who may not know to just smile and say hi... My ward combined with another a few years before COVID when I still attended. I would have liked to get to know the additional people better as they are our neighbors, just in another direction (I'm also in ...

I wonder if the next step is to have the BOM story happen on another planet.

Another poetry lover here. Your post sent me on a quest for my favorite anthology called The Best Loved Poems of the American People. I think all the poets mentioned on this thread are represented in that volume. Happily I found it. The composer Randall Thompson chose a set of poems by Frost to put ...

Good makeup work. Great tan on a 99 year old. Looks surprisingly well for his age given how unforgiving 4K cameras can be.

-25 for the ham-fisted way he worked "think celestial" into the talk.

+50 for the organist for pulling out the big stops. That is a fine instrument. You can buy anything in this world with money.

I'm more inspired to see the power of applied science when I see an engineering marvel.

I'll give him some credit for using a teaching of Jesus as the foundation. +5.

He almost made a good point but he had to play both sides against the middle.
