I think this is good. Let's talk more about Christ and a lot less about JS, Nelson, and the church.

Our primary spends WAY more time singing "follow the prophet" than they do on "trying to be like Jesus"

This is such a narcissistic statement. Mormons are the center of the universe and a little change in emphasis that nobody even notices is going to change the world. Have they been taking narcissism lessons from trump.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I definitely have more in common with atheists these days than I ever would other christians.

ditto.

In fact, two of my current best friends (who are better actual friends than anyone in my ward/stake) are both athiests.

"President Nelson, we eagerly await your counsel."

Surprised he can enunciate so clearly with his lips planted so firmly on backside.

Yes let's.
He quoted Nelson way more in his talk than he actually quoted Christ. LOL.

But maybe in his mind they are one in the same.

I should add that I am agnostic which puts me most of the way to atheist already.

Are the pictures on the walls supposed to be symbolic of fire and brimstone?
Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

All right! Time for some honest-to-goodness prophesying, seeing, and revealing!

He's talking about the gathering of Israel. Is it finally time to pack up and walk to Independence, MO?

Naaaaaaaah the gathering is going to be metaphorical rather than literal. Joseph Smith is rolling over in his grave.

I remember learning that (israel = let god prevail) decades ago. How does the prophet and leader of an entire religion not know that?!?!?
