Hello my friends, It's been a while, I wish I could post good news. And yes there is plenty good to post. But nothing to do with the church. Every day now several years I get a daily digest from my best friend about his employee. His employee is technically my bishop, as I live within his ward-bound...

Orcs, I mor eor less livein their Capital Orgrimmar. Though my heart lies in the Undercity being an undead myself.

Granddaughter of former Stakepresident, she and my son are good friends.

Well, Hinckley promised the Scottisch an own temple. Now Birmingham gets one, next to the Area Office I heard. Many Scots are very upset about it. Moreover the stakes in and around Birmingham have lost abt 40% of active membership. A source I have in the Temple-department stated (off-the-record obvi...

https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/learn/area-seventies?lang=eng And JOEP BOOM is now mentioned as a member of the 7th quorum. Funny to see the number of Seventies is ballooning at a time the Church is visibly shrinking. When Birmingham gets a Temple, despite having lost 40% of active membership, b...

And....
Every Area-Presidency in Africa now contains a member with a high-melanin skin.
Seems the Rameumptum found out the optics were a bit iffy.

So just in, Former BP and SP JOEP BOOM will be anointed as an Area-Seventy. As was his elder brother Hans Boom, who was his predecessor as BP and SP. Hans Boom has since gone on to be a full GA. https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/elder-hans-t-boom We don't believe in nepotism, but when...

Yeah, it's hard transitioning out. It took me the better part of a decade. But Mrs. Meilingkie did it in a massive dam-burst. When she was done she was done, soon after she was no longer Mrs. Meilingkie either. She has turned into a very hard-drinking, Church-hating partygirl. Broke off all contact ...

Shhhhhhhh, it might be cancelled soon......

There is no-one with superkeys, nor are the keys spread about amongst the 12.
Otherwise there would always be a designated survivor....
Says enough right?

The prophets are kinda dead already.

Did we get any revelation about the incoming Covid-19 virus?
Did the Tongans get any revelation about a volcano that was about to destroy their country?
Did Ukrainians get a heads up about the coming war?

What's the use of a PSR if they don't P, don't S, nor R.

Wearing normal garments was a burden already........
But as always, the fanatics will say this is why you should have a foodstorage.
Never mind that mormons are at risk now of being robbed of said storage.

I miss my daily dose of delusion.......

Hello from Holland, Just ran across this thread, and I recognize a lot from Reuben. "It has to do with belonging" (paraphrasing) "I'm terrified. I'm afraid that everywhere I go, there will be a majority of people who think that something about how I think or act - which I put a hell of a lot of deep...

Gas in Holland is now at USD 10.20/Gallon.

Thanks for the update. It's great to hear from you! My kids both being in CBT for PTSD as a result of mormonism. If you feel comfortable, could you say more about what was most traumatizing for them with Mormonism? If you don't feel comfortable sharing then I COMPLETELY understand. I'm curious abou...

Good to hear from you.

You say that they estimate 10-12% are not coming back after lock downs. Is that 10% from previous attendance level or 10% of membership in general?

10% in general.
But abt 40-50% of previous attendance pre-Covid.

Covid and some other issues have kept me away from the Church, and it's OK.
Been seeing a nice Greek-Dutch lady who lives 2 floors up.
Looks like this is a keeper, PhD in psychology, nice and normal.

Life is good.

So the Church in Holland tried to sell off a lot of nice buildings in posh and popular inner-city locations. Of course this is handled by Facility Management, you'd think. Right? Right?! Well, seems the facilities-manager in Holland wasn't authorized to sign anything over a certain amount of money. ...
