I've heard that those Mormons (Major victory for Satan) under age 40 are pretty much only wearing garments on Sunday and when they go to the temple. So, Big E must have instructed it would be better for endowed Mo's to have their sexy armpits uncovered than no garment wearing at all 6 days a week.
"Only the atheist realizes how morally objectionable it is for survivors of catastrophe to believe themselves spared by a loving god, while this same God drowned infants in their cribs." Sam Harris

It's truly a sad state of affairs. The brethren need to bring back the old time religion. The youth today are getting soft and inching ever closer to the dark one. Fire and brimstone where are you? First the brethren succumbed to society and changed the garments, they dropped the penalties, dropped the preacher, now this????? Seems like it's just a business masquerading as a church. What next? Cafeteria Mormonism? By the way, how is Ensign Peak doing these days? Those boys really know how to trade.
Myth is misused by the powerful to subjugate the masses all too often.
I believe that most, if not all major policy changes for the last decade or so have been implemented to try and address the stagnant (negative?) membership numbers. Church is boring? We'll cut the 3 hour block to 2 hours, and maybe down to one. Home teaching sucks? No worries, we will do away with it and with VT. Most weekday programs are now gone, you can drink Coke now, porn shoulders are no longer a thing, and multiple earrings are no longer the sin next to the sin next to murder. Garments are hot and culty? We'll change the temple garment to be more fruit of the loom like. God may be the same yesterday, today, and forever, but the Mormon church is not. It will throw any venerated doctrine, teaching, and past prophet under the bus if it suits its short-term goals.

It really is looking like that. Being proud of being 'a peculiar people' apparently no longer has the cachet it once did.
