I'm so excited for General Conference
I can't wait to hear how God is going to deal with Putin and whether or not I need to stock up on vitamin pills & lead-lined garments.

Re: I'm so excited for General Conference
Wearing normal garments was a burden already........
But as always, the fanatics will say this is why you should have a foodstorage.
Never mind that mormons are at risk now of being robbed of said storage.

Quote Nelson, talk up Nelson, and say the phrase "covenant path" so often that he begs for mercy.

Conference will be sponsored by DoTERRA's special Iodine tablets with lavender oil. 'Special' because they all received special blessings before leaving the factory.
Re: I'm so excited for General Conference
I wish conference would be like that. I'd love to see Nelson get up and talk about how evil Putin is for killing civilians in Ukraine. At least it would be interesting.
Instead, we'll get the same crap about how end times are near, and the world's problems would be resolved if everyone would just be more like Jesus and follow the prophet. BARF! It will be yet another snoozefest, and 7 months from now nobody will remember or care what was said.

Re: I'm so excited for General Conference
I think 7 Months is giving WAY too much credit. The only think keeping them in people's heads is church assigning them for talks and various lessons over the next months. If they didn't force people to review them, the amount of time before they were forgotten could be measured in hours, not months. No one would remember them after 7 days.Advocate wrote: ↑Thu Mar 10, 2022 7:23 am Instead, we'll get the same crap about how end times are near, and the world's problems would be resolved if everyone would just be more like Jesus and follow the prophet.

Here's an experiment for someone. Quiz them Monday evening after conference about what was said. If they can't give a detailed, coherent answers, then conference is not even good for 36 hours.

Oh no you guys are leaving out the dire warning about watching porn will make you go blind !!!!!! I am waiting for Rusty to give us the green light to drink coffee (don't tell anyone but I have been drinking it for years but I'm sure Rusty knows that with his super prophet powers) .

I have often brought up points from the talk that just ended, only to be told, "I guess I wasn't listening close enough to catch that."Just This Guy wrote: ↑Thu Mar 10, 2022 8:59 am Here's an experiment for someone.

This will be the time when MoPag shines and creates threads for us to share communal thoughts on the speakers and sessions.
Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.

Man, the fun you could have with this. You could almost ask about any random thing and ask their thoughts if they were not paying attention.Hagoth wrote: ↑Thu Mar 10, 2022 3:06 pmI have often brought up points from the talk that just ended, only to be told, "I guess I wasn't listening close enough to catch that."Just This Guy wrote: ↑Thu Mar 10, 2022 8:59 am Here's an experiment for someone.

Re: I'm so excited for General Conference
Have you ever heard the story about when J. Golden Kimball did this in conference? “It has been proposed that Mount Nebo be moved from its present site in Juab County and be placed on the Utah-Idaho border. All in favor make it manifest by raising the right hand; opposed, by the same sign.”Just This Guy wrote: ↑Fri Mar 11, 2022 6:12 amMan, the fun you could have with this.
