edit: although I add, if there is a change, I think Tick's guess is about as good as possible. I have heard possibility that Eyring could be released due to wife's Alzheimer's. That kind of change is possible. Any other change for any other reason would be highly unlikely. And Christofferson is a very solid pick. He's kind of the youngish smart guy right now in the 12 they use to handle tough issues. He'd be my top pick for an opening.

Byron Marchant is going to be pissed."Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

Originally posted by USUC View PostI guess it makes sense to add Oaks given he is next in line, but I'm a little surprised that Uchtdorf is gone. Can anything on the new direction of the Church be inferred from this new line up?"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes.

I felt dirty typing that... yet I still hit the post quick reply."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

I've been a highly unorthodox yet fiercely loyal and optimistic member for a long time. Not trying to be dramatic but this is the first time I've felt a little hopeless and dark about the future of the church. Feels like a punch to the stomach. It wasn't done without meaning. This has only happened once in the last 100 years. Uchtdorf is very popular and is viewed as being the most progressive of the bunch.

Ditching Uchtdorf was an easy call. Hair envy."...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

Not that anyone cares...but outside of the Church this will be seen as a doubling down after President Oak's last talk at General Conference.
