Love the update! I think time will tell and you never know what the future holds. Glad to see you have found your place. I have a few good stories to update I’ll save for another time. You both are proof that patience and love win over angry hostility toward a religious legal entity. Happy to hear t ...

President Mopag, thou wonderful and faithful servant! Thanks for the summary. We went hiking this morning and came back to see if there was anything useful in conference to connect with family. Doesn’t look like there’s much of anything new. Glad to see you and hope you are doing well! I did notice N ...

I’ve never met him in person and don’t know any details and can’t confirm for sure. Edit I just saw this link https://discussmormonism.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=160621 If true it’s a sad day for the Mormon internet universe. He was a staple of humor and wisdom across many discussion forums, often accom ...

Good point Nibbler. I’m old enough to think back as a kid listening to conference at the stake center via satellite and recognizing them by voice. Yet I can’t recall many of their talks other than the classics like Benson’s 14 fundamentals and Bednar’s pickle. Seems most of the talks are word salad a ...

After a bit of research it appears it’s fairly common amongst Mormon practice. Key Historical Interregnums Before 2025 Here are some past interregnums (examples) where the Church went through that process: Joseph Smith ~ June 27, 1844 ~3 years, 6 months Long delay before Brigham Young became P ...

If I was the PR Director for the church… I would have suggested Elder Oaks say ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about temple announcements. With the death of President Nelson, the members would have expected something from Elder Oaks, but saying nothing would have set the precedent and solidified that The Lord, ...

I think he's given GC talks before. Maybe he'll get a spot in the Q12? If he's actually related to Jeff Holland, I would count on it. Son, I believe Nepo baby! I’d sustain a Holland Holland apostolic quorum. Think of the family reunion chatter around the dinner table. Jeff Junior… please take your s ...

Hey Bishop! Give us an update… Hey Red! I'll have to make a new post with some more information. I was released a few weeks ago when our ward was closed as part of a multi-stake boundary change. Its really the best result I could have hoped for, I'm now coasting in a new ward/stake with no calling a ...

Hey Bishop! Give us an update…

Holland needs to be retired.

He’s slobbering while talking about evidence. You just need spit and dirt and you can see!

Sad he’s trying to sing and his battery is running low.

Two questions here: From a Legal point of view… are the hard assets, real estate, Bednar’s hair, and cash accounts owned by the corporation and upon the death of Nelson the next guy up (Oaks) assumes the role of church president and chairman of the board/Prophet? Or was Nelson the Corporate Sole own ...

Sorry for your loss Alas. I typically choose to find the humor in most of life’s difficult situations. The man boobs in your story made me chuckle. May 3rd is an important anniversary date for me. I’ll celebrate the life of your lesbian daughter in law in my thoughts going forward along the way. It’s ...

Bishop!

How much longer do you need to serve?

Our bishop just changed last week after 5 and a half years!

The new guy is probably ok and will leave us the hell alone.

Hoping you don’t get released and make the high council or worse…. Stake President!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha….
