      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

        Yeah, too bad there isn't some sort of forum where people who are interested can discuss the "minutiae" if they so choose. Maybe someone should create such a forum.

            Now that was funny, thanks Clark.

                I can't ever remember a woman praying in GC. I also seem to vaguely remember hearing that women didn't pray in Sacrament meetings until an uncomfortably late date in the 1900's (I'll have to look that one up). I decided to google "why don't women pray in general conference" and guess what the number one link was?




                Even google knows that Scottie has the touch.

                  In this case, the vast majority of the responses are about scottie's methods. How many are seriously responding to his original post?

                      The bitching about scottie's methods is all about the mullahs' frustration over their inability to satisfactorily, on the merits answer his questions.

                        I don't remember if a woman has prayed in GC, but I also don't remember anything about GC prayers other than some tend to be sermons and or overly worshipful of the FP and Qof12.

                        I did notice in the family ward in Provo I attended for a year that a woman never said the opening prayer of sacrament meeting.
