+10 for making it clear that Grandson being hit by a train was NOT caused by their prayers for Grandpa to get a heart. I think that's an important point to make right now. God DIDN'T send the Corona virus to get Mormons to spend more time with their family. Sh*t just happens sometimes.

Nope. Wrong boat. There's a gay guy on board.

It's like he had a story he really wanted to tell and needed it embellish it with a bunch of gospel-y stuff.

I think he is also conflating God with the church. When we remember God and Christ, we will not think too hard about what the GA's say.

Is that the BoM stories book with the racist captions? Or the new one?

Wow, that was a powerful revelation. If a flight attendant says "Biscoff? That's a great cookie," does that carry the same weight?
