Are all Church Teachings Malleable (soft, pliable, changeable)?

I can only think of one teaching that is hasn't changed and that is it worship the leadership.

Other than that, Basically every Mormon teaching has changed at some point or other.

Yes, but not by you.

That said, change in church is waiting for leadership to play catchup to changes members have already made.

Ahem...

... "Temporary Commandments" ...


Yes. All LD$-Inc. teachings are malleable.

Example: Do Mormons get their own planets? Church Newsroom: No.

Do Mormons get their own worlds? Pres. Smith, Young, Taylor, Woodruff, Snow, Smith, McKay, Smith, Kimball: Yes!

Does anyone want to do explain the difference between a planet and a world? Spock: They are logically synonymous.

I suspect their hatred of transgender people is one of the teachings that is not malleable. At least until they can find a way to make more money by embracing trans people.

One thing I would like to see is the removal of D&C 132 from the canon. They removed the Lectures on Faith, why not D&C 132, at least the part that talks about concubines.

Personally, I would hate to see them send every uncomfortable yet fundamental commandment down the rabbit hole where so many other original, fundamental Mormon beliefs and practices have been lost. After all, it is God speaking. Can they just handwave away something that He apparently thought was important enough to give a revelation for? They should keep some of those reminders around, no matter how ridiculous or embarrassing, or they completely lose touch with their origins.

I guess that's because leadership/power are the most important things to them.
