Sister Reyna I. Aburto, Second counselor in the RS wins General NOMfrence with a score of 45 points for her talk: “With One Accord.” She talked about positively about non-members, encouraged Christ-like love and inclusion. She praised individuality and accepting people who may be different than us.

Cook loses General NOMfrence with an astounding -4,015. He got most of those points for coining the phrase “nonconsensual immorality.” This phrase is sickening and offensive, and the TBMs are going to love/use it. He then tried to equate nonconsensual immorality with consensual immorality. The fact that he couldn’t see why this is bad idea is very disturbing.
I hope you find this list useful if you have to pick lessons or talk topics.
Thank you to everyone who participated in and followed the General NOMfrence threads. And thank you to those who participated in your hearts!
I know I shouldn't laugh but this phrase is embarrassingly ridiculous.
