A Uchtdorf rise to the Prophetic throne is reasonable.

If we look at the seniority list and relative ages, it’s highly possible that a Uchtdorf Presidency could happen. If we assume Nelson, Eyring, and Holland all die within 2 years, then it becomes a race between Dallin and Dieter to see who lives the longest. Oaks most likely could be the next prophet...

Ironically when asked to compare the process between Mormon and criminal activity: The leadership selection process in the Mormon Church, officially known as The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), stands in stark contrast to the clandestine and often illegal methods associated...

Re: New Apostle

The selection process for leaders within the Mormon church is similar to a criminal organization like the mafia. The process is not transparent or standardized, and it can vary based on the specific organized crime group and its internal dynamics. 1. **Hierarchy and Seniority:** Criminal organizatio...

Mine from 2013-2023: $0 Bishop once asked why I didn’t give anything at all?? I’m willing to donate when you can’t keep the lights on.

Glenn prophesied that the church will soon clean house of these wicked spies.
Well let’s hope he isn’t considering Elder Ballard’s death as evidence of his prophecy.

Re: Russell Branson

John Dehlin has been public ally calling for him to do an interview on Mormon Stories.

That would be worth listening to.

Perhaps with the death of Ballard this might now happen.

Re: Elder Ballard has died

A former state legislator observed to me that it seemed VERY convenient just before he had to give depositions. What if they are faking his death to avoid giving depositions? At 95, the likelihood he actually died is 99.99% in my mind, but that leaves a .01% chance they faked it. Then he could just...

Re: Elder Ballard has died

While we're promoting the idea of women filling these positions, why don't they have Barbara Ballard slip into her husband's big red chair? Maybe that should be a rule: Widows of Q15 get promoted to Q15 when hubby dies. (Or maybe those nice ladies should just spend more time with their grandkids.) ...

Re: Elder Ballard has died

If they do it right, when Nelson, Erying, and Holland follow Ballard in the next 3 months, they should all be replaced by women. Then 30% of the Q12 would be women. That’s a start to modernize the church and stop women from leaving in droves! Bring in more women Apostles! I vote for Lindsay Hansen ...

I hadn’t thought about the John Wick connection. Hmmmm… A potential rise for Uchtdorf to be prophet looks closer to a reality. A time I would have looked forward to. Now I just don’t care.

Elder Ballard has died

Three months earlier and his legacy would have been different.

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...

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...
