An Oaks talk that ended up with positive points. Is that a first?
Yes, I think so. I think his previous heights score was a 0

Oh no!! there it is
Just as I hit submit on my last comment, he goes off of his religious freedom rant.. -10
Beat me to it. I'm not sure I buy religious freedom is a humanitarian cause. I will only take -5 off, because the rest of the talk was pretty good. Overall a + 10, which is probably the highest score I've given Oaks.

Ok. Who was that man and what did he do with President Oaks?
+20.
Nice job of recognizing the contributions of others and encouraging others to help!
Should we just have a closing prayer and go home now before someone else ruins it?

What are the odds that RMN follows up this call to do good with a suspension of tithing paid to the church, instead asking members give 10% to other causes since the church has enough to provide for its services?

Yeah, I will give a +10 too - minimizing Mormon anxiety is always a good thing.

+10 for saying FSOY isn't the perfect guide for every decision.

Have the rules about the number of earrings been removed?
What is the Lord’s standard on dress, grooming, tattoos, and piercings? The Lord’s standard is for you to honor the sacredness of your body, even when that means being different from the world. Let this truth and the Spirit be your guide as you make decisions—especially decisions that have lasting effects on your body. Be wise and faithful, and seek counsel from your parents and leaders.
I mean it's better than the last one....

+20 this is a good message for youth. Don't get hung up on rules and learn to make healthy decisions for yourself. I wish I had been taught that at church when I was a youth

Holy shiz. You telling me free agency is back being a real thing? +10 just for reintroducing the power of choice, without strong manipulation to back it up.

For teaching not to follow the rules but to understand what you should do and then use your agency to make good choices.
In other news: 3 speakers...each has referenced King Benjamin. Interesting trend.
