"Christ's New Testament Church restored."

Except its not. Our church has nothing to do with Christ's early church. He didn't actually organize one.

This is a long a$$ proclamation

Thank god the proclamation is brief and succinct.

Silver lining - thanks for the reminder.

I'm reminded of what the (now defunct) blog Reasoning With Vampires used to say about Stephenie Meyers' writing: "sentences are not minivans."

What is the title of the proclamation?

Yeah. Disconnected from reality. These guys don't get it.

That wasn't weird.

What looks stupider? A room full of thousands of people waving a hanky and chanting in unison... or one old guy doing by himself?

It was weirder to do it. Eeesh. Whatever to keep the peace.

One of my kids made me laugh as he said it in a high pitch voice & exaggerated swinging his arm like crazy. The others smiled at me. Only DH had his eyes glued on the TV.

This whole conference has been an embarrassment.

I wish my family would wake the hell up!!!!

I'm just in awe how much a nothingburger this has been. I can't wait to see all the memes on how this was a historic conference, yadda yadda. It was just soooo useless, boring and just...nothing.

Damn October 2000...

Where were you guys? I was at BYU-I with Pickles.

Knowing that there's no church to attend for the foreseeable future, and by extension no talks and lessons based on these talks, will make the quarantine a little sweeter.

Imagine sitting through 6 months of Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, restoration, restoration, restoration every Sunday... wait, that's what we did before all this.

My final count:

JC: 27
JS: 29
N: 17

Well, I am not feeling spiritually fed. I'm going to find a good book.
