So prior to today, Rusty has announced 83 temples. With today's (17 right?), he's at an even 100. Probably been his goal for some time. Hinckley only had 78, Rusty is King!

Thank God we're done for another six months.

Because we're growing we need all these temples?

This new math is so confusing.

Well, it sounds like all my PIMO hard work is paying fruit as a new temple here in Central TX! :P

Proposed Temples for October 2022 General Conference

Cruise Lady Caribbean Temple - Ports of call from Bermuda to San Juan. Enjoy a Cruise Lady Temple vacation today!
Bora Bora Temple - If it is good enough for Kevin Graham and Dr. Peterson, then why not make it into a friendly Temple Vacation for other Saints! Bora Bora and Cruise Lady Caribbean would be annual Temple visit vacation spots for General Authorities and their families, so book your spots now so you can hobnob with Saintly royalty.
Ulaanbaatar Temple of Mongolia - Let the Church cover the global map for you.
Martin's Cove Trek Temple - Why not take in a session before the kids begin the summer trek experience?
Epcot Temple - Put on your seatbelt and enjoy the virtual session. Afterward, grab a gator on a stick before hitting the other exhibits.
Zarahemla Heartland Temple - built on the excavation site of the ancient Zarahemla temple in Iowa. The endowment is a song and dance extravaganza by former Hill Cumorah Pageant performers. You are greeted at the veil by a Zelph impersonator.
Istanbul Temple and Bathhouse

Who is gonna be staffing all of these temples? I mean obviously they have enough money to build a temple on every street corner if they wanna, but these glorious elaborate buildings are gonna be sitting empty unless they pony up and start paying the volunteers (which would NEVER happen).

Temples announced:
[... 17 random cities]
They have been averaging 10+ temples per conference for the last few years. How many have they actually built and opened? Anyone maintaining a list of the vaporware temples?

Here’s an interesting link to some stats. I read one of the comments that said RMN has announced and completed only 2. I’m too lazy to validate temple stats. But here’s the thread.

Oh there it is!!!

There is the homophobia and transphobia
First of all, thank you MoPag for all you're hard work. Much appreciated.

Can I just say that I am so glad to be separated from this toxic "church". Disgusting. Sickening. Gross. Abhorrent.

But thank you Pres. Oaks for pushing my wife further and further away and confirming her choice to step away.

And do you know what else Dallin? She and I are not the only ones who see your and the Q15's duplicity of talking about peacemaking and avoiding contention from one side of your mouth and then marginalizing your LGBTQ+ members and children out of the other side of your mouths. DW and I will not be the only one's to step away. Your church is a shell of it's former self and will continue to be so. Oh yes, you will always have lots of $$$$ but your power and influence is waning. The writing is on the wall and you have been found wanting. What you and others have done to our LGBTQ+ children and people is unconscionable.

Uchtdorf being subtly subversive might be the only ray of decency in all of this.
