This is my favorite. Are you using the same platform?

Re: One more thread severed: ministering

Our last EQP realized that most elders never did their assigned ministering or home teaching. So he observed who was naturally friends and assigned people to each other. As a EQP Secretary it was always annoying to track down numbers for reporting. Once I realized everyone was either lying or not an...

Re: Church Member Records

Find a ward clerk on exmo Reddit and have your records transferred to their ward. Then they can provide you a copy.

Re: 36 new missions created - why?

More opportunities to call mission presidents? Which also increases the pool of future general authorities. The way I see this, there is already a pool of Stake Presidents that serve on average for a period of 10 years. What happens to the stake presidents after released? Our former SP was called a...

Re: Mom would have been a great bishop!

The At Last She Said It podcast had a good episode about this. In a world where women can be CEO’s, Doctors, Astronauts, etc… they surely are qualified to be a Bishop.

Re: Your tithing dollars at work!

Voluntary organization is not government since there is no monopoly on violence. So is it the case that everyone gets to be equally violent, then? (Perhaps more seriously, or less) Is this proposal for a voluntary organization somehow related to libertarian principles? Or ... how does it relate to ...

Re: What's up with the "countenance" concept?

There is something to be said regarding countenances. When a person sins their behavior changes, or rather their spirit that moves them was distracted elsewhere since the last time you observed them so they are not interacting with you on the same conscious level. This concept, or something very si...

Re: Your tithing dollars at work!

No, I am seeking to reward local homeowners that want to sell so others around them can buy their place to use as community centers that act as halfway houses. What about zoning laws or neighbors that may not want to live next to a half way house/community center? Currently in Edmonton, the city is...

Re: Your tithing dollars at work!

We can do this on our own. I have mentioned a college subsidized by HOA yet there is so much more. When members collateralize their own assets to invest in each other without bankers nor businessmen there are no salaries nor services charges to cause entropy. By HOA, you’re referring to a Home Owne...
