Now they are making a Black boy give a talk on the priesthood? Ummm is he going to mention the ban?

This poor kid is sweating profusely. +5 to help him get through it.

And there it is. Finally. Joseph is second only to Jesus.

Took long enough.

Here's the thing though: Every conference is historic! I mean: Literally every one of them has been held on a different date. EVERY ONE!

Which of course means: None of them are historic. All are equally mind-numbing and boring.


Except: It seems to me they'ave actually one-upped themselves, and made this one even more boring than any before. And most definitely completely irrelevant given the state of the world.

Maybe the crazy Hankey waving tomorrow will make it all better.

-5 for spreading dubious priesthood claims
+10 for being brave enough to do this as a kid. Same +10 to Kaouk.

Exact obedience is such a toxic idea.

I wonder how much "help" these kids got writing their talks.

-5 for "Covenant path"

Every word these kids say makes me think that my pipe dream of women and the priesthood is just that...not this year, sisters. The longer this drags on, the more young people they will lose.

Nelson himself has forwarded this idea the most over the last decade. It's garbage.

I'm sure they went through correlation, at the least.

President Bingham don't f this up

Agreed. Extremely orthodox talks. For youth speakers, they are very good talks. Brave kids. But orthodox, as would be expected. Maybe next time they'll ask Jaxon Washburn.

When he says it, theres an extra sense of sinister.

It's hard to get rid of everything being literal in Genesis 1-9 and keep the BoM.

The more I think about it, the more I land on the youth speakers serving two purposes:

1) Youth retention. Conference is now more than old people talking at me. Which brings me to the second purpose...
2) Give exemplars of a young woman and young man in church. "This is how you should be."
