NOM

The article about this at the Church News website: https://www.thechurchnews.com/leaders/2022/8/11/23300722/changes-in-tithing-settlement-process-first-presidency-letter-tithing-declaration-september The picture of the family at their "declaration" is seriously creepy. Where do they get their stock ...

I count 13 articles in the October Ensign, with "pornography" in the title (at least for the online edition in the app). That seems like a high number of articles even compared to prior obsessiveness on the issue.

I liked your RMN episode, but when I listened to it, I wondered if it would be the your "Elder Holland Liar Liar" episode that triggers the inquisition. Hopefully not,but it was plenty strong.

For all the concern that this is about emphasizing the correct name of the church, they seem very quick to jettison "latter-day saints".

I'm not sure I can listen to all 10 hours of this. I feel like they are soft debating minutae that doesn't matter.

I have remained interested in things going on in the Mormon ...

But don't forget the Elder Cook recently told us that God intended that rock cut of the mountain without hands to become a pebble. That's how we know it's true. For now anyway. If for some reason membership started growing again, say in Africa, then THAT'S how we'd know it's true. Really? He said a ...
