Holland Tells Us We are The Church Of The Happy Endings

Post by AllieOop »

Elder Holland told BYU graduates:

"When such times come, I ask you to remember this: This is the church of the happy endings."

Hmmmmm....unfortunate way to phrase this....or not? :lol:

Took me a second or two, then it clicked.

Oh boy...at least it wasn't another taffy pull!
Er, maybe that's how it all started ;)

I posted that to Reddit the other day too - I don't think everybody else thought it was as funny as I did. I'm a sucker for a double entendre though.

Its offical. The oral sex ban has gone down the memory hole.
It's frustrating to see the last resort in a discussion of facts be: I disregard those facts because of my faith. Why even talk about facts if the last resort is to put faith above all facts that are contrary to your faith?
