Re: Letter sent to SP's - damage control.
I reckon they can wriggle out of it in a way that will satisfy many of the faithful. The policy was only evoked for a tentative, trial period, but we were forced to clarify publicly before we had finished giving the matter its due consideration. Now we've had time to seek further inspiration we'd li...

Re: Reading between the lines - new policies
The church will "clarify". The backlash against this will eclipse the no oral sex letter. The clarification will come shortly. This just reveals that god is not at the reigns, the church bends to social pressures, but at its heart it is a hate group maligning in the name of jesus, to keep...

Re: Reading between the lines - new policies
I'm in Europe. My Facebook feed is full of members responding to this. People are trying to justify it, and they are struggling. The conclusion some are reaching is that the church must be preparing a clarifying statement and, once that has happened, the policy will make sense and everything will be...

Re: Ballard publicly denounces Catholicism.
(I posted about this at the same time as you. Ooops. Can I delete my post?) Elder Ballard's statement is interesting to me because I was taught this as a bic Mormon. I thought the church had softened this rhetoric in recent years. He is stating explicitly what Mormonism/Mormons believe and teach. B...

Catholics don't know who God is
http://www.tubechop.com/watch/7051576 Elder Ballard, speaking about Catholics says, "They don't know who God is, they don't know who the Savior is, nor do they know who the Holy Ghost is." This was pretty much what I was taught, growing up. I thought there was a more universal approach to...

Re: Monetize ponderize
Yeah - I guess I'm just surprised it didn't occur to Elder Durrant that overtly monetizing his conference talk might be classed as tacky. (I don't know why I'm surprised).

Re: Monetize ponderize
Salt Lake City — (KUTV) A controversial website has been taken down after critics alleged it appeared designed to profit on a talk given Sunday at LDS general conference.

Monetize ponderize
It seems Elder Durrant's son and daughter-in-law made a website to sell t-shirts and wristbands relating to his conference talk. Here's the reddit discussion https://www.reddit.com/r/exmormon/comments/3ni2qm/gotta_love_having_your_ga_father_use_his/ And here's a report from KUTV https://kutv.com/new...
