Nelson’s policy adjustments prove 2 things.

1. The youth are leaving.
2. Monson was long incapacitated or asleep at the prophetic wheel.

+5 for focus on Christ.

Hopefully I'm not jumping the gun on this. He could veer of in either direction.

This is getting weird...
Scientology anyone?
Yes! I wanted to say to DW how it reminds me of the Navy titles Scientology uses. But she would not like that.
Do you think youth will be required to run through the halls like the Sea Org?

-10 for "Adversary is increasing his attacks exponentially."

Show me the stats. Where is this data coming from?

So, now we have a "Youth Battalion" and their adult leaders are "officers".

Getting much more militaristic these days.
Do the q15 not realize how out dated and weird that will sound to the kids? Battalion, really? Why not Team or Community? Battalion sounds so militaristic and Us vs Them defensive. Kids today want to include others and be friends, not prepare for battle against people who don’t think exactly the same way.

Hopefully it will fail like ministering has.

-3 for making families with less than peaceful scripture study feel bad about that fact.

The data came from RMN. How can it be wrong?

-10 for another "Adversary is increasing attacks at exponential rate" and Come follow me counters that attack.

Fear mongering + raising a youth army = not a good idea.

Wait until the kids (and me) start calling their leaders Officer Jones instead of brother jones or sister jones.

Officer Jones is presiding this fireside.

Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.
