Here's what I'm hoping that manifestation will be: a bolt of lightning scrawls across the COB, "sell all that you have and give it to the poor!"
Darn that Stan is a crafty bastard. Jesus would never do that.

Re: Harry Reid Died

Brother Reid was extremely unpopular outside of Vegas. I remember a regional conference that he attended. Pres. Hinckley asked him to speak and there was an audible groan from the 5 or 6 thousand attendees.

Re: Temple changes

I asked my parents who are in the local temple presidency and the only guidance the temple department sent was covering nose and mouth. No logos and preferably single color. I know that my dad has told people to put on a mask or they will need to leave. He has also told me about telling a number of ...

Re: Five Months Down. 54 To Go.

An idea might be to get Google Voice number and put that on the website. That way you can still get calls but not have your personal number out there.

Re: What are you doing to protect your family against the virus?

I will be honest. I don't wear a mask, and other than working from home, I have done nothing special during this whole thing. Partly this is the fact that the area I live in is smaller. We don't have huge crowds, and we haven't had too many cases. I understand those that do wear a mask, and there ar...

Re: LDS Church temporarily suspends all meetings....

Our stake is doing a broadcast 3 different times on Sundays. Our ward is assigning families to meet in small groups of 3-4 families. Seems to defeat the purpose. Each group has a leader and they are to report back to the bishop. Mormon bishop roulette. My brother's ward in the same town is just bein...

Re: LDS Church temporarily suspends all meetings....

I wonder when they will close all the temples? Leaving them open seems like the perfect virus storm. Old people and lots of face to face and handshaking interaction.

Re: On the fence

Thanks for your story. I saw that you are or were in Nevada. There are a few of us in the Reno/Carson area. Occasionally we might do lunch. If you are in the area, hit me up via PM and we can get a lunch together.

Re: Ministering, YM, EQ, and the Bishopric

In my ward I see the YM program flailing. The Bishopric has taken control, but is also still meeting with members during the activities. The BP is now calling or trying to call "specialists" to assist. They called an outdoor specialist and tried to call yours truly as the activities specialist. I wa...

Re: List of rejected Utah vanity license plates

A lot of these should be rejected, but others are head scratchers? Badilac (I assume for a Cadillac). W1ngman? CrzyBzy? I guess Nevada is a lot more lenient. I have seen COWGIRL, TNYTOOL, LILWNR (Lil' wiener on a lifted truck), MERLOT, WINE LF. A bunch of others that Utah would find too offensive.

Re: Tithing and fast offerings in kind....a lesson from sunday school

The church accepts donations in kind of sticks and bonds. I knew someone that paid tithing that way. You could probably donate land also.

They won't take your turkeys unless you are giving Butterball stick certificates.

Re: Another failed miracle

I remember when this happened. Her father was a coach/former player at BYU. The senseless tragedy did provide a miracle to the families in need of transplants. That a blessing didn't fix it doesn't mean that a miracle didn't happen, it was provided by this family and the skill of doctors and nurses ...

My bet is that the big thing at next conference is that they will hold a session or two in Palmyra or some other Joseph Smith site. Otherwise it will be the same old same old.

Re: Is NOM going the direction of some other online groups?

I started with NOM 1.0, and while I am on Facebook, I haven't ever looked for the private groups, so have never joined any.
