"Is there anything you wanted to ask a prophet?"

Yes, there is, but I don't think you will enjoy the questions.

If we are giving JS 20 popularity points for a whole talk, to be fair Rasbabd’s talk was pretty much all about the atonement and that is JC, so I think his talk should be at least 10 popularity points to JC.

And 10 points for talking about the atonement, and another 10 for including the idea that Christ heals those who are innocently sinned against, so it isn’t all about the sinner getting out of punishment. I didn’t learn that idea until I was 45 or so. And I asked a few bishops about how the atonement helped me, as all I could see was my father getting out of punishment by his feeble repentance efforts.

So far Joy is waaay ahead for the suck up award. That video should serve as her acceptance speech.

This is a good point.

JC did rack up a good 7-8 points during that talk anyway, I'll bump it up.

I guess women aren't getting a priesthood hat this weekend. Don't wear them all at once!

"The Lord loves effort, because effort brings reward." Wow. Good thing we have a prophet, seer, and revelator for THAT. Take out the God part and it could be one of those lame ass motivational posters in an office break room.

Maybe a point should be given for a mention of a specific thing that they did or said.

-10 for gaslighting. No! Women don't have the priesthood because the men don't want us to. End. Of. Story!

JC: 22
JS: 28
N: 15

Kids had us a bit distracted, so I may be missing some mentions. But it should still be relative.

Another points complication: When "the Lord" said something who are we talking about? Jesus? Elohim? A scripture dictated by Joseph?

So they're rebroadcasting hymns from conferences past.

It seems like the next logical step is to go ahead and rebroadcast talks from conferences past.
