-10 for Rusty pretending the global pandemic has led people to be more devout. Even my most bleedingly TBM friends are like "wow, no hour church is even better than 2 hour church!"

How would he feel if RMN knew that the debris in my life that needs to be tossed is largely about church?

Sounds like Uchtdorf is doing a missionary promo talk.

He really is the only one of the Q15 with stage presence/charisma and looks.

yeah, but it kind of sounded like he was saying that genuinely loving people is more important than baptism numbers. In case you were wondering why he got kicked out of the FP...

Yup!
This is actually a sweet Christ-centered talk about hope. You could make it into a good talk or lesson +20

Mistakes are part of our progress? So how about that "Not Even Once Club" and the insanely intrusive questions from bishops about "transgression"? I like Uchtdorf. If the church really was like what he describes, more people might be attending.

I can handle Utchdorf and his concept of repentance better than Nelson's.

I am here for the "Cliff's Notes" version of this tripe, keep it rolling friends. I can't stand to listen to "conference voice" anymore its like nails on a chalkboard. However, my family is going to be throwing this crap in my face for the next 6 months...

Thanks to all suffering through this for the rest of us who are unable due to cringe disorder.

Aaaaaaaand Mr. Admiral is sound asleep.

Just to clarify, going on NOM during conference = bad; sleeping through conference = good

Kind of silly but I deal with that too. Virtue signaling is alive and well!

+10 for talking about having compassion for our younger selves. No one really talks about that at church.

Jones: -10 for pretend etymology for the word "primary." It's called that because we used to refer to "elementary education" as "primary education." It has nothing to do with how much we value children. Words can have more than one meaning.

And it's still called "secondary education," I have a license in secondary ed and it doesn't mean I don't love or value those kids! It's called secondary BECAUSE IT COMES AFTER PRIMARY. That's it.

Oh but her talk isn't going to be about child abuse. It's going to be about brainwashing children. Ugh!!!!
