Scary Stan. That dude gets blamed for everything.

"God wants us to become mature adults and choose for ourselves." I'm not confident that the LDS church truly agrees with this statement from Elder Renlund.

Look for the footnote in his written talk that says "*what God wants is always revealed through his servants, the prophets, seers, and revelators of the Mormon church so do what we say and you will be fine."

I am so sick of that buzz phrase now. Everyone using it is just kissing Rusty's ass.

Auto -5 from me for every speaker using it from here on out.

Boy, the Great and Spacious Building is really getting a lot of coverage in this conference.

-5 for calling the 2-hour change "revelatory". What a crock.

I'm really skeptical that NOM forum members are the kind of sheep that ministers are really supposed to go looking for.

I am NOT a sheep. Sheep are raised to be fleeced and slaughtered. The only reason shepherds keep sheep safe from predators is because THEY are a predator. It isn't out of any kind of altruism.
